scrolling 'latest news' good or bad? - 3/23/2001 20:52:00
i've recently added a scrolling 'latest news' section to my site http://www.outofthevoid.co.uk/ and need honest opinions on whether you think its good or does it annoy just you?

Hmmm, I'm on a OC3 at work and had to give up after the page was "loading" for over 30 seconds! Is it the server or what?------------------

i think its the server. its with a company called freenetname, its not an amazing service but its free and doesnt have any banner ads. i think i'm gonna have to move it to freeservers or something.

Yep, the page took an age to open here also on a little 56.6 connection - I went and had a cup of coffee while I waited ![]("http://www.frontpagewebmaster.com/ubb/smile.gif") I like the news scroll though. In fact I like they way you have incorporated it a lot, it is low key and slow and so not distracting. Just noticed one other teensy thing - in your opening paragraph "...tell us about what your doing.." should read "...tell us about what you're doing.." ------------------

Also, South Coasts needs to have an apostrophe...both in the title and first paragraph...South Coast's.Sandy ------------------

Hi,Looks good - came up pretty quick. The scroll is a bit fast for me. "most people think that the only thing to ever come out of southampton is craig david." Never heard of him - I though it was Matt Le Tissier ![]("http://www.frontpagewebmaster.com/ubb/tongue.gif") Cheers

It loaded quickly on my 56 k and the speed it scrolled at seemed fine, I liked it.
