cool

the purple links on the grey at the top are a bit hard to read.

Also you can get all your stats from cpanel so you shouldn't need the counter.

I've lightened the background on top menu, text is more easily read now.

I've been thinking of replacing the text for a logo, (presuming that you mean the "BLINGWORLD" and page titles throughout the site), but can't decide on a design as I'm not that creative on that sort of thing. Mebe 'flaming text' would have something I could modify a bit.


Thanks for the feedback.

The font called Enviro that you've used on your "Piccies" page for all the links doesnt display correctly and just appears as a load of garbage, you should avoid the none default fonts because if people viewing page dont have them installed then they wont work, if you want to use a fancy font then use a picture

Changed Enviro to Garamond.

Looking for a decent logo/text for page titles.

Cheers

A friend of mine cannot see any images on my site. She only gets little red crosses. Even the buttons for the hyperlinks etc.
I did think it might be because I made the site with Frontpage, and that she cannot view 'frames', but no-one else has seemed to have this problem. She cannot see them with either IE or Firefox.

The image albums are courtesy of Jalbum, and are uploaded seperately, but cannot be seen either!

Any ideas please?

I can see all the albums perfectly, all work as they should do.
Only thing that kinda links all her problems together is java, tell her to download the latest version on the java plugin and maybe it will work

Thanks for the replies. She says she has he recent version of IE, and downloaded firefox to try it out on that. It's strange that she is the only person to not see the images. It must be her settings, or computer. She uses Norton Suite, but has disabled it for a while, and still cannot see them.

It's got me beat. :?

I'm at a loss to know what the cause is. She's not local, so I can't just pop round and give a few things a try. Mebe she'll work it out sometime.

Thanks anyway folks.

Somehow, she can now see the piccies. Her hubby cleared out the cookies, and did a few other (unknown) things, and it works for her.


Who knows..........

:confused:

Looks pretty good to me, although seening as how you have used an inline frame to contain your jokes page you may aswel use it for opening all the other pages inside as it would use alot less space on your hosting and save alot of download speed to the user.

Anyone that ever visited my site knows how much I love an iframe :)

Cheers, Munger.
I did think about doing that, but then the page titles wouldn't alter.

i like the japanese theme tho it doesn't look very blingy.

I wish i went with wordpress rather than boastology for my blog, both are nice scripts tho.

I know the japanese bit is unblingy, but I kinda like it. My intention is to change the picie on a regular basis so it keeps looking a bit different.

You should have a navigation bar at the side of the page.

It works on my FF and IE. I was updating stuff a short while back, mebe you went onto the site when I was messin around with it?


BTW Munger, what is the url of your site? I get to a hosting site when I click the link in your profile.

OK........ I've added some navigation links at the bottom of the pages. I hope they work, and 'position' corectly.

You are a Mac man then, eh?
