![]() In article , bof writes: In message , "was gio, now vinnieza" writes hi, I've just put up my test vote 4 broadband website: http://www.kolicha.netfirms.com What do you all think of it? and has anyone got any suggestions? thanx That string of circles that follow the pointer around was so annoying I just closed the window when I realised they were on the second page too I viewed the site with a text only browser (lynx) so saw no such distractions! It's my standard test to see if a site contains any real information, or just mindless infantile amusements. http://www.kolicha.netfirms.com came up with the goods - there is some real information there, quickly accessible. I have just updated the forum and jut wondered what does everyone think of it? http://members.lycos.co.uk/broadband...pBB2/index.php The forum is Powered by phpBB 2.0.6: http://www.phpbb.com/ Thanx |

The login dialogue needs to be at the start of the page, not the end. It wasn't entirely clear what the relevance of the number 4 was in all of this. Is it linked to channel 4? Member list is two words, not one (we aren't German). Same goes for user groups. All the sub-headings need review, poor grammar or unclear purpose in many. d _____________________________ http://www.pearce.uk.com |

When will adults realise that their very use of this stuff renders it beyond the pale- that's the whole point. Local schools have relaunched their dining halls as "Fuel Zones". Those responsible presumably don't realise how pathetic this must look to the kids. -- Niall |
