  • Website critique….basics are done

    Posted by Henry Barker on 17 February 2004 at 08:53

    Been struggling to find time and energy to get my website back…I changed webhost around Christmas time and decided the old site should die, it was a few years old.

    I forgot that I had a few pictures linked to posts here!

    Anyway I am not very familiar with Dreamweaver but have tried to put something together….as people have been asking where it went here…as its in the yellow pages etc.

    I know a few pics don’t work….I have to change that….I think its beacuse they have the swedish ΓΆ Γ€ Γ₯ in the names….seems to be the common link.

    Most people here have broadband….how does it load if using a modem…and someone said when they hit home (logo) they got a 404 file not found although it seems to work here.

    The links seem to work fine for me. I like the site, nice and clean does what it says on the tin!! And some excellent work in the pictures.

    splendid. Im on broadband so I can’t comment on load times, but it looks like it should load reasonably fast on a modem connection. Once the first few images start to load that should be enough to persuade people to wait for the rest. It’s normally sites that do nothing for the first 15 seconds that people wander away from.

    i think it looks great henry. well laid out and easy to navigate.
    i have broadband so not fair to say they loaded very fast πŸ˜‰
    had no bother with any links at all but did spot some red crossed images that didnt load on the thumbnails.
    had a quick flick through the pictures again, some new stuff i havent seen and some old stuff to remind me of the cracking stuff you produce.
    cant waite to see what you start to knock out once you get that new router..
    thanks for sharing mate. top notch

    oh yeh.. one thing i spotted.. nothing is spelled right? πŸ˜‰ πŸ˜† πŸ˜† πŸ˜†

    No problems on a 56k dial up connection here. Your site looks fine, thumbnail pages take a while to complete, but no longer than it takes to look at the first couple of rows of images. Couldn’t find any dead links, superb job!

    Henry,
    I love the site but your work is even better …..
    I must have looked twice at everything on the site!
    Superb……
    Can we have a closer look at the cigar sign that’s casually leaning in the background.
    Cheers mate

    Great to see your site back online Henry, it looks fantastic. Nice and clean and showing off those great sign-making skills of yours πŸ˜€ You do some excellent stuff, I especially like the range of vehicles you’ve done.

    Btw, on an entirely separate issue, can I have your Chevy? πŸ˜‰

    Cheers, Dewi

    Joe I can take a closer pic, its printed on the Edge mounted on aluminium, and its from one of Mike Jacksons collection of old sign ornaments, I have bought all his CD’s
