New Website

The basics look good. I am on dial-up modem, so it took WAY too long to load the pages that have pictures. For pics that size, using any app that optimizes pics for the web, you should be able to keep them each under 30KB without losing much quality at all. Otherwise, nice!

All your money and you are still on dial up? Tsk tsk tsk, Steve! :D
 
I'm on Dial up too

I almost fell a sleep while it was loading, maybe it's because it's after my bed time :D


if you want to hit the net engines, slow sites are a turn off to most surfers.
you can test that by surfing the net yourself and land on a slow loading page..

yes 30K and under for pictures, or maybe use small ones for thumbnails..surfers will wait
a little longer for other pictures once you capture them..
I'm not trying to put a damper on the site Jeff you have a good start,, just food for thought.. :)
 
hmmm... cable modem, didn't notice :) it is missing the site description on the home page though...

Yup. I need to get out of the shop and get crackin on some copy for it. I have a friend who is helping me with the basics. Anyone know how to link my sig here to my website?
 
go you your User CP
and in the siganture box and add this code
with your hosted banner URL.

remove the word "space" that I added so the url would show here..

[URLspace=http://www.higginsmachine.com/]

[/URL]

or email the banner URL to me and I'll send you the code to add...

I AM WORKING ON IT! BLAH! :p

Crap, this fulltimer stuff is nutty sometimes. Right now, I am spending 14 hours a day in the shop, Monday through Saturday, and usually a couple hours Sunday morning. Only Sunday afternoons do I take a couple hours to play.

Okay, now I got to get my lunch finished and back to work. :(

Yup. Now all I need is some decent pics of my knives as I make them. Pity that all the knives I made in the past were photographed with film, and polaroids. They dont transfer to digital very well. No biggie. The site will grow in time. :)
