Hi
...at last I'm about to take the plunge and do my own website.
I've more or less designed it and would appreciate comments from our on site computer/website masters.
I wondered if the more experienced amongst us see any problems with it?











Many thanks and cheers
Peter

Thanks...
for the comments. I was looking for views from a tech point of view...i.e. ease of use things....would it work?

Hosting...I'm thinking of putting it with Yahoo through work. Our Web designer/tech will put it all together.

But I'm open to suggestions.

Of course the Armorama logo will appear on the actual home page just above the links button.

Weird...who me.... :-) Well all right then....luft 46 colour scheme for a number 13 bus...anyone?

Thanks again and cheers
Peter

Very cool....you did a great job of dersiging it!

However, tehre is one thing that wories me:

I SEE NO MODEL SECTION!
I thnki it would be good if there was a page for your models, for modelling is an art!

cheers

Howdy Peter,

WOW!!!.....quite a surprise.....and then not.

Based upon your original inquery about website building I have been doing some 'brain-billiard's' in regards to creating a site for you.......but, as you have just demonstrated, you have no need of outside help. You are indeed a very talented bugger!

Your site looks fantastic. And your attention to detail is completely along the lines of all of your previous work......splendid!

In fact, your site work reminds me of some very cool pictures I found with you in mind that I actually posted on one of the threads, and then was quickly chastised for posting them in potentially the wrong place......if you have a site now maybe i should send them there?......?

Your posted pics look swell!

Tread.

Actually.......that reminds me...I still want to take you up on your kind offer of a print of your excellent truck prints. That is, if you will be so kind as to include your 'signed' signature on them.......who know's, one day they might be worth more than your Flat!.........

Many thanks...to all.

procrazzy...
I didn't add a section on my models as, although I consider my models not a bad average, they are not outstanding enough to warrant a web-site for them.
The aim of the site is to generate interest in my illustations and hopefully attract commissions to earn a living when I leave this place and go home in June.

And I thought it a good idea to run it past you lot...lol...the most genuine and honest critics I know.

Tread...
I'll pm ypu re: prints

Ta -ta for now
Cheers
Peter
