750823 2009-02-24 01:27:00 What a good lad! Recently built a website for our church and he has made such a great job!:thanks

Please have a look at www.stoswaldsanglicanchurch.org.nz to see just how good he is.

Not only did he do a marvellous job, but he does it with a smile and a joke, which makes all the difference.:)

If you do not have the skills or the patience to put a website together (I have neither) then talk to Huey. He comes highly recommended.:clap

750825 2009-02-24 01:58:00 Pretty good. Though I do have one minor critique. IN firefox, on the last page especially "Contact Us" there are small black ovals with a ? in front of each subtitle (like so.. *?Name; *?Email, ?Subject) and yet nothing in front of "Message"

And yet in Konqueror its just fine

Maybe its just me

Other than that, quite impressive :clap

750826 2009-02-24 02:07:00 I don't get that Myth - what OS are you running? johcar (6283)
750827 2009-02-24 03:15:00 Myth: I run Firefox (who doesn't?) and like johcar I don't have that problem either.

But as has been said, it loads quickly. Always a plus.:cool:

750828 2009-02-24 03:20:00 I dig.

The site is great, and Hueybot3000 is a good lad.

750829 2009-02-24 03:33:00 It looks fine in firefox 3 running on gOS.

Hueybot3000, you're a scholar and a gent.

750830 2009-02-24 05:18:00 I'm impressed!

Like johcar, I'm "not keen on the font" (Too widely-spaced for my preference, but that's just personal opinion)

Loading speed is certainly great on my Firefox 3.

Pix are well-integrated.

I did however feel a bit cheated of an exterior view - what a passer-by would see from the road, for instance? The cut-off tower on the home page didn't seem enough to be recognised - or maybe I missed something..?

Wearing my sub-editor's hat, I'd split up some of your home page paragraphs, add a few commas here & there, shorten the occasional sentence & revisit what I was told as a newspaper cadet.

"Never use a long word if there's a short word that'll do."

But that's just me being a picky old-timer...

Overall, it's a great credit to you.
Congratulations on an effective site.

750831 2009-02-24 06:38:00 Wow thanks guys!

The font wasnt my choice, thats roscoe's. the wide spacing would be because he wanted all text justified. maybe we should change this roscoe?

Myth - I think what you are seeing is a character not supported by the font used...but that doesnt make sense. Works fine for me in firefox, ie and opera under vista and xp. Anyone else have a problem?

Thanks for the comments, nice to know my work is acceptable
