not OT, please take it for a test drive

I am still a total neophyte on building a WEB site, but I have taken another stab at it if you got time to take a look.

Still needs quite a bit of work, been using Adobe Page Mill, cause I had an older copy already with a computer I had bought used
a couple of years ago. I did the layouts using a 15" CRT monitor, so I am not sure how well it may look on a larger monitor. Seems
a little strange looking on my 17' LCD.

Only the GIII and GIV collections and the trade sell lists are done, the rest are under construction.

A fine site, rhound.

Very nice site. I love that Gothic Florin.

AuldFartte

For a neophyte, you're doing incredibly well
It looks professionally done to me. I love that Gothic, too !!!

Great job. That's a very nice looking site. Works well on my 21" monitor.

very nice.

But when I clicked on the "You can view my George IV collection by clicking here" it brought me to your George III again.
Just a heads-up.

Very nice site. Wish I had your skills.

Two comments though:
The raindrops on the text in the left panel are somewhat distracting
Your selection of Japanese coins is sad.

It's coming along nicely!

A typo in the header on that page, they are G IV coins but the header is wrong..... Thanks!!!!!

Appreciate the inputs........ It's nearly impossible to find your own mistakes, and you all know already that I can not type...

Very nice!!

Good job, I really like it! I am going to take up the task of putting my entire collection onto a website as well after the new year...maybe some of you could answer a couple questions regarding this for me. What are good HTML editors or webpage "makers" and where do you go to get someone to host the site? I've never done it before

You've done well! Here's some constructive criticism:

1) The more you can reduce the amount of scrolling required to view all the links on the left frame, the better. Simplify the links to save space: Coins for Sale or Trade - imaged version - text only version, George III collection, George IV collection etc. Possibly scale the monachs a bit smaller to help the cause.

I am using the 5Mb of WEB space that my ISP provides, plus an additional 5Mb I highjacked from my mother who does not use it. There are also groups that will rent you WEB space for a fee, but
most ISPs give you a set amount and you can pay for more. I use Adobe Page Mill on a Macintosh computer to build the site, it's an older program that I do not think is available anymore. But
there are many others out there, some are free. One that comes to mind is Front Page, which I think is from Microsoft. You will also need an FTP program, I use "Fetch' which is share ware for
a nominal fee. A google search for HTML programs and editors will probably show up some programs to use, also TUCOWS has allot of freeware and shareware.

Thanks, I will probably do that, and I have been wanting to add more, just have not taken the time, but I want to get Vicky up there... I'm gonna run outa WEB space soon.....

Nice site - nice coins! easy to use.

Worth the second visit and post.

I agree nice site, some great coins - what more do you need?

You may have mixed up your William IV (1835) farthing and 1/3 farthing photos.
The Revs look OK - but the Obvs portaits look switched!

Good luck with Vic etc.

Very nice site, rhound!

PuddlePirate

Nice site! Now the real fun begins, the constant tweaking and pic by pic varifications. On the birght side you don't have to write the code yourself in Basic!

Looking good Glenn - very easy to navigate. Excellent!
