New Site - 9/18/2002 9:10:31
Well here goes.
After fiddling with Frontpage and studying replies on this forum for several months I have finally taken the plunge, created my own website and advertised my authoring skills on the internet.
The site is :
www.toolmanweb.com
Any comments would be most welcome.
Be gentle with me....this is my first time you know
Cheers

I think it is a very good start. If you want some suggestions for development, here it goes so hold on.
On the site designs area, dont have the image be a link back home, it is a little confusing and very unneeded. For the examples link, I would definitely suggest not having the link go directly to a new site, but be like the other pages and have maybe a paragraph about how diverse a field you can serve. Then have links to an example site for one kind of business and one for another. That will give the customer more control over the site.
I would also include a phone number if not a physical address on the contact us page. finally, I would break out the legal page to have 2 things, 1 separate page for the legal contract writing, and one for the contract itself.
I would either include a fax AND address for the contract to be submitted to, or make a frontpage form and turn those lines into fields and make it a form that can be submitted to you. Then you can have them spill into a database that you keep your customers in already, and it in turn can populate a report to be printed for the official contract. I would recommend Access for your database, but you may know more about that.
Good luck!

Nice start:
The spinning globe detracts from the professionalism of the site.
None of the toolbar links work - I get a 404 on all of them
The conten is all on the left side of my monitor - you might try centering everything for a cleaner look.

Chris,
I noticed this earlier and kept forgetting to comment. The home page needs a horizontal scroll to view the whole page. However, there is nothing there. It is only on the home page.
I believe the culprit lies in this entry: <table width=" 811" border=" 0" cellspacing=" 0" cellpadding=" 0" height=" 101" >

Did you get the missing background image problem that Swirl did?
I wondered if this was because I had the settings on Frontpage for IE only?
That would be my guess since NN doesn' t play well with background images in cells or tables.
