It's a long way from being a functional commerical entity but I rushed to set this site up last spring when I couldn't find a decent tutorial to "Make labels in Word" with the labels having "upside down" print.

Prior to upgrading the site to FP2003, I had already had over 2000 visitors. I don't know how to protect my counter....yet....so that won't happen again.

In addition to the tutorial, I have included information about:
my grandfather - his film career and his lineage
soaping information - suppliers, information and acronyms.

I also did a commercial site. http://www.arenabbq.com The owner was adamant that he only wanted to pay for six pages. I did throw a seventh for a 'thank you' for free. As I don't understand about 'includes', this sites is done with in-line frames. He picked this style after viewing my "demo" site at http://www.futureventuresonline.com/demo.htm

Someday, I will own a decent digital camera so I can bring in much better pictures than the current ones.

I would like a little feedback...pretty please? are they all horse puck or possibly any a diamond in the rough? Any tips at all?




TonyT -> RE: a diamond in the rough (11/24/2003 1:32:44)

Just a quick strong suggestion (I have to run): don't use counters on commercial sites (actually, IMO, any sites), unless they are invisible. Just doesn't look as professional as you want to come across.

Good luck with everything! =]

Thank you. I hadn't thought of that. I will take the counter off my site. The customer insists that his stays though.

One thing you can do is have the counter write in body color, so that your customer can see the site traffic by easily "selecting" a certain area of the site, ie the bottom row. I've found this is usually enough for them and makes the site look more professional.
