Well that was diplomatic.
Methinks your bedside manner needs a little work;
nay, it needs a fucking OVERHAUL!
See you just haven't been around long enough. I on very rare
occasions get a bit blunt. But there is never any malice in what I
say. I state my opinion, you are free to do with it what you want.
Trust me, I LIVE for the day that I'm as good at this as you are!
Probably already are as good you just don't realize it. It's not like
this stuff is rocket sience.
Here is what you need to do. Look at the site you are creating, then
do a google search for "wedding Limos" and look at the websites.
Hell, skip the flash ones if you don't like that kind of thing. Take
a look at the sites and see what is different from yours. In most
cases you can disregard any code they use because my guess is none of
them validate, but that's not what your looking at. Your looking at
what makes them better than a pink, white, and uglier pink site with a
few images (I'm describing your site).
Why are these sites better than yours? Not just the look, but also
the way the site works. Look at the competition, see what they are
doing, see what they look like, then use them as a guide. That's how
you get better. Not worrying about a said:
I don't understand people who can't give advice without throwing
barbs.
Barbs or honesty? If there were malice and I called you a dumb ass,
then that would be throwing barbs. I just told you the facts. And
now I even provided you with a solution.
What the hell business is it of yours whether I got paid or not?
because if you got paid then you did a disservice to the customer.
I do believe I said in an earlier post that I am relatively new to
this.
That should indicate that my current output isn't going to be the
standard of the industry.
Why not? did you even look at the competition's websites? Or did you
close your eyes and come up with the design? You admit you are new,
you admit you are not good at this, then go learn from the people that
are creating sites EXACTLY like you want to create. Learn the look
and feel from them, learn the code from here.
I know that Hunt's, or anyone else with that kind of budget, isn't
going to be beating down my doors for me to build their site.
I can live with that.
You missed the point of the analogy, but it doesn't matter as I stated
the point in this post.
But it's certainly not your job to tell me that; or is it?
You presented your page to the group when it offered your URL. You
will receive various comments from people in the group. You are free
to use what you want, and discard what you want of the answers, but
you can not tell me I can not reply. (well you could tell me, but it
wouldn't mean squat)
Perhaps you a member of the Website Layout Aesthetics Police
Department (WLAPD)?
No, I am a web user and letting you know what I think about your
site. You may not like what I say, but you know it is the truth.
Nothing to lighten up from, I wasn't being mean or hurtful at all. I
was being honest, blunt, but honest. Now, go hit up google and start
getting better. Then blow us away in 2 weeks with a freaking awesome
site. (Then ask for more money)
I am expecting another URL in 2 weeks from you.
