Click the logo... That's at least one thing that ought to be altered on this site- it's not very obvious that visitors must click the logo to access the site.

images/home.h4.jpg is compressed way too much; keep in mind that AOL will automatically compress your graphics more than you have, unless the aol viewer has image compression turned off.

On the black/blue corners, the blue doesn't match the background of the page... at the bottom, there's a blue spot that seems like you missed changing a cell to black. (I'm just going to assume you know what I'm talking about here )

Very nice discussion board (now I see why you're using frames ). Again, the blue doesn't quite match up, but it's close enough.

You're in doing good, in your own "shoddy" way. Not exactly my bag, but not bad at all for a bunch of punk high school kids! (not bad at all for anyone else, either... but I call them as I read them...)

Be sure to add a text link into the site if you just gotta have that splash page.

I changed a few things on the site and am going to add a flash intro to the entrance page. My problem is that no matter what i do, i can't show up on search engines.

Try going here

Also read Joe Burns' tutorial on this page

Be aware that flash intros can seriously banjax search engine crawlers.

It's coming together very nicely :-) I love the humor! I'm with Bill, the slogan is priceless, ha ha.

Want a really nit-picky thing? In your statement under "Welcome to Shoddyfilms.com", there's a missing comma between the "..movies online" and "the shoddy films crew..." Not a big deal, but it sort of stands out, ha ha.

Shoddy-Films

I took another look at your site last night from my home PC. I'm still ROFLMAO and think you're onto something. I like the fresh outlook on things and your willingness to go somewhere new.

The site looks pretty good overall and more importantly made me interested to root around a bit more. The only thing, the movie downloads took forever. You might want to warn prospective viewers about that. As for me, I've no patience with long downloads. It's not so much a problem for those with high-powered lines, but I'm still using a meager 56k modem at home.

I also had some trouble with a couple of links but that may have been server related.

Anyway, I encourage you to keep trying and keep that site going. Just remember to keep it as easy, informational, and functional as possible.

Cheers

Hi dudes and dudettes:

Visited your site again for a third time last night and finally had the patience to watch "Mentos". Was able to get "Shut up Hasheesh" but something strange happened. I got impatient with the download time, so I stopped it, however, it continued to play in the background without any video...I got the sound. Guess I should have waited a bit longer...but no prob.

That's the only trouble I've had, download time....

Still like the site....will keep an eye on it. And kudos to you guys for your creativity and persistence. There's buttload of great advice in these forums, and it's good to see you taking advantage of some of it.
