Default A website of my own!!

It's not all complete yet, but it's only been 7 years that I've been selling on the internet. What's the hurry right?

Very attractive site. I can't wait to see what it looks like when it ages 7 years.

Very Cool Kevan! Did you do it or Antonio? Whoever designed and put it together did an awesome job! Colors are very pleasing to the eye

Irene,

Thanks for the compliment! I have to give credit to all the tutorials on the internet that I spent watching. I'm a one-man-bandwidth-glutton when it comes to tuts.

Thanks Lori ! Mmmm...it wouldn't be my 'second living'...it would be about my fourth. I blame my natural manic energy.

I like the tutorial idea though. Perhaps when I actually know what I'm doing I will attempt it.

Kevan, The site is outstanding. Extremely well done. But then all
you do follows that same path. Jeannie

Love the color of your site, very nice.
The transition between pages (with the moving objects) keep our attention.
I am curious to know the software you use for that. Is it something like flash or director ?
Most important thing, love your beads and the picture of your dogs
Really professional ... I am very impressed

Thanks, Lise! I used Flash CS4 to edit things. The original file was in Macromedia (now Adobe) 2004. If you are thinking of buying a program I'd highly recommend Flash CS4. Flash has a steep learning curve but it's so worth it!

Ok, you talked me into it. When are you sending the check?

Oh and they've changed the exclamation "holy heck" to " cowabungee!" .
I just didn't want you to sound dated.

bit of negative critique: takes too long to load.

While I absolutely love it once it's done loading (and admit I didn't navigate around), I did switch back to another tab to wait for it to load. If I hadn't wanted to look at it I would have gone away (I'm on roadrunner and don't usually have problems with downloading speed). Decrease picture size/resolution (just a bit)?
