| Thank you for the constructive criticism.
|
| I am confused about this spaces (%20). Will you
| please give me an example, and how to correct it.
a file or folder named: jim bob's personal page.htm
will translate as jim%20bob's%20personal%20page.htm
this will trip up linux/unix servers and some browsers, plus the ' is an illegal character.
|
| What illegal characters did I use?
none, i was just warning you.
|
| This I don't understand at all. I bought a digital
| camera to take all those pictures of my signs.
| They were all saved in jpg. I downloaded and
| used JAlbum because it was recommended
| here. All I did was follow instructions. Now you
| are telling me that I shouldn't have used it
| because all my graphics are WordArt. I have
| seen JAlbum recommended here, but I haven't
| seen any posts saying not to use it because it
| creates WordArt. Please enlighten me.
JAlbum does not produce WordArt, FP does - if you use Draw, or Text Boxes etc.
JAlbum will just create an album out of whatever you input. I highly recommend JAlbum. I do not recommend using WordArt, Text Boxes, Autoshapes or any of the other cute drawing tools in FP.

| I am not ignorant (dumb means unable to speak)
| of trademark laws. It is illegal to use trademarks
| in advertising, or manufacture trademark items
| to sell, without authorization. It is not illegal for a
| person to use a trademark name, or have it used,
| on an item for personal use, which will not be sold.
| They are very common at football games. All those
| items, that fans display with their team name,
| which they made, or had made, are legal if they
| were made for personal use and not for resale.
Dumb was the correct usage in this case, as I was not accusing you of being ignorant.
That's right if you are not selling those signs you may not be infringing...it's just confusing seeing such a statement on an "order" form which kinda implies that you are selling something.
|
| Again, thanks for the constructive criticism. I will
| be making changes.
Glad to help.

| message | Stick to one font for body text.
|
| Lose the capitalization of text.
|
| Some links are goofy...click on Wholesale and you go to another page with
| the buttons reversed (?) Navigation is strange as a result.
|
| You have pages named: new_page1.htm etc...you need to rename the pages to
| something meaningful
|
| While you're at it remove the spaces from file and folder names (they'll
| appear as %20)...also stick to lowercase and no illegal characters.
|
| There's no way home (or out) from within any of the photo albums.
|
| On your order page...if you're gonna play dumb about trademark
| infrigement...don't mention the fact that you can't show something but
| you'll make it anyway! I'd re-do the order page..it's pixelated.
|
| All your graphics are done with WordArt - VML is only well viewed in IE
| browsers others may not view them at all or render a low quality gif in
| their stead. You should use .jpg or .gifs - in your case .gifs would be best
| but you should create them in an image editor program...not with FP's
| wordart.
|
| Design is important if you want to hold the viewer's attention, a bad design
| will turn the viewer away rather quickly.
|
| Good start, just need some tweaking.
|

|
|
| | | I finally am on the web with my two sites,
| | and ready for criticism, and let me know if
| | any browsers have problems (I only have IE).
| | I used FP 2003 because I am totally
| | ignorant of how to build a website. I built
| | them for selling signs, (my retail signs are
| | something nearly everybody can use at
| | some time). I did not build them to get
| | praises about design. I am a faithful reader
| | here, but about 90% of the posts are over
| | my head. I built the sites the best I could,
| | hoping they would look half decent in all
| | browsers. From what I read, the fancier you
| | get, the more knowledgeable you have to be
| | to make it look good in all browsers on all
| | computers.
| | Everybody please take a look at:
