My Website update

[loiosh]

Comments welcome. I had some trouble with either the server or my computer or both , and so I've redesigned my website. I've changed a few things around. I'd appreciate it if anyone wanted to take a look and give me any constructive critisism. The website's geared towards animals, and horses in particular, so be forewarned.
Anyway, any comments are welcome. Thanks in advance.
My Website

Looks like a great start to me....nice, clean, professional.

But it took a very, verrrrrrry long time to load. I went and got a cup of coffee while I waited because I was determined to see it.

I think it must be your server, not your computer or mine, and not your programming. I don't see anything there to take so long.

Thanks anne54 - I've been having problems with netfirms today - couldn't even access the site or netfirms for a while around the time of your post. Thanks for the comments. I'll post again when the site's finished, probably be several more days. It'll be nice when it stops raining around here for a few days so I can get some decent pics of all the animals, especially the sale animals so I can get some good pics of them and everyone else. Thanks for the comments, and BTW just how long did it take to load? Should have taken less than 30 seconds for the index page to load....

I will bet it took at least 5 minutes or more. I just looked again, but the page is down.

I mentioned in another thread that I have tons of beautiful animal pics--domestic animals, pets, wildlife if you can use any clip art to dress up the site. Let me know what kind you would want. My email is anne.shelton@att.net.

yeah, netfirms was having some crazy issues - even netfirms.com was down/extremely slow. but they're all better now

Hey all -
Netfirms had to completely wipe out my files and I had to re publish - a lot of work but it's all for the best. The site's up and running now with more galleries, etc. Still not completely finished but a pretty fair chunk of the way there.
Thanks for the comments all.
BTW I'm working on putting in a forum there for people to talk about horse photography and animal photography and wildlife art. I've tried out one type of forum - Frontapage discussion board and didn't like it at all
Anyone have a forum on a netfirms website? I wanted to use an XMB board like this one or an ASP board like a Snitz forum but netfirms doesn't support MYSQL
and I don't think they support ASP either.
Anyway, any ideas would be greatly appreciated. Thanks -
