Show off your website

[Scorpiuscat]

Let’s have a thread where Hostmonster customers can show off their websites.


My site located at www.jonja.net (http://www.jonja.net)

It is a dedicated Sci-Fi website with a lot of activities for users to take advantage of. Including over 950 Free Flash Games (http://www.jonja.net/forums/activity.php?sid=1952e033ffaabf201115466d3cda08b3) that will keep track of your high scores and an Online Chess System (http://www.jonja.net/cms/modules/chess/) that allows users to play against each other.

We also do Sci-Fi TV/Movie reviews and news along with Fantasy/Super Heroes/Horror Genres.

Busy Forums (http://www.jonja.net/forums/) with forums games and Contests.

Also read our Celebrity Interviews (http://www.jonja.net/forums/viewforum.php?f=29)

And since being with Hostmonster, the site has been running perfectly. My hats off to Hostmonster for excellent service.

What else we got out there? Lets see some other Hostmonster hosted websites.

[Aaron]

I'm just hosting my humble little blog now. Nothing flashy. I am still experimenting with Joomla! though.

[sjlplat]

I run a small site dedicated to extreme rock crawling. Nothing fancy; basically just a place for like minded people (or absent-minded, whichever you prefer :D) to share info.

[Magic Kye]

Ours is just starting up too, and it's about Magic, what else would you expect in Cornwall!?

http://www.globalmagicltd.com
the prices aren't all up, the stock isn't all up, but the site works... of course, in three months time when it is all working I may regret this posting...

Pick a card, any card...

[Magic Hands]

If any of you are interested in magic items then please don't be afraid to drop a message here. We will try and get the items and let you know.

[virtualahmad]

"nothing fancy" seems to be the theme here... so i might as well contribute :o

www.trustit.ca --> a very UNfancy site. Just communicating basic information for now... plan to grow it as business grows.

I will say that my client sites ARE fancy... listed under the portforlio section :)

A bit about me...
I have been working at ATI Technologies Inc. since 2000 as the internet development manager. I recently decided to try my luck at freelancing and so far so good without any advertising (only word of mouth). :cool:

Now that AMD has acquired ATI, and ATI will no longer exist as of Oct 24, 2006 :eek: , it seems that I may have to pick up the pace on freelancing.

I'm always looking for feedback... so if you have some, please do let me know.

Hey, do you mind an advice?

Tableless CSS + XHTML ;)

Sorry but yes, I'm a W3C taliban :D.

Example (still unfinished): http://www.cactilio.com/artsfaculty2

A first (very rough) version is here, also pure XHTML+CSS plus some fancy mooFX for the menus:

http://www.cactilio.com/artsfaculty

but had to drop it because they use Internet Explorer 5 and 800x600 screens :eek: at that faculty so I had to move to a more simple but still reasonably nice looking layout which would still work in that prehistoric enviroment.

Of course both are 100% standard compliant.


Trust me, the sooner you adopt this design and development method, the better it will be. It really pays off to isolate content from design. And remember, if you follow the standards, a kitty will be saved :-D


The sites are hosted here at hostmonster so this post is not entirely offtopic after all :-)

[Aaron]

I recently decided to try my luck at freelancing and so far so good without any advertising (only word of mouth). :cool:


You can trying getting freelance assignments at places like http://www.getafreelancer.com

You'll be surprised at the number of jobs available, and of course, the number of freelancers available as well. ;)

I'm in the process of moving my church's site to hostmonster. I'm using the Joomla! CMS and am loving it!

Here is the new (unfinished) site: www.febconline.com (http://www.febconline.com)

Here is a site (no longer available) I use to test plugins for functionality. I'm planning on moving this site to hostmonster when I get the money.

Please don't laugh, I've never taken a class on design, or good web presence. Everything I know I've picked up along the way.

I'm open to any suggestions to better design.

[shadmego]

I am sorry.

febconline.com is the old site. The new one is febconline.org

[spiritshome.com]

My site is a little outlandish I supose. Stuff my sis and I are into. I'm into wicca, helping people, and otherworldly beings, she's into dark things, and the zodiac. My site might me a little weird and a little simple looking but I find it to be a great hobby working on it. :) I'd love to hear anybodies oppinions on it. Peace love and chicken grease. May all your dreams come true.

[wiseoldman]

My site, http://www.wise-old-man.com, is basic web help with a large section of helping GeoCities' Page Builder. But I do have lots of other stuff about me and family.

working on a website is a good hobby, it can be stressful at times but it's healthy stress in a way becuase you can control how much of it you experience. :) That's why I like it. I currenly live in michigan and I myself have trouble moving around. It gets worse in the cold so I work on my website more this time of year. We've had snow once so far.

Hello All,

Please have a look at the website www.memoryrewinds.com that I have designed using Coppermine Photo Gallery with lots of new extra features like invitation manager, paypal buy button integratione etc...

The website is called VOPVA (Virtual Online Photo and Video Album) currently in use by more than hundreds of customers.

Virtual Online Photo and Video Album called the "VOPVA" is an advanced, user-friendly, picture, music and video gallery website script with built-in support for other multi-media and data files. The gallery is intended for use to millions of users around the world.

At VOPVA, you can create personal online photo albums and share them on the web. VOPVA gives customers more flexibility than community photo sharing sites like Flickr and Webshots. By providing a protected personal space on the web where customers can host online photo albums, VOPVA allows members to share photos with any audience - from a large community of photobloggers to a small group of friends and family.

Please have a look at it and give me your feedback in my guestbook at my website.

Thanks
VOPVA Administrator.

Try a content management system. You'll be amazed at the number of things you can do with them! I've had lots of fun playing with them.

[E.M.P.]

Hello I have a multi-site that I call U.M.A.C. Which stands for United Members and Communites..

The Idea here is for people from all over the world can come here and have a nice place to meet and greet. We play some online games like Superdudes and Runescape etc.. At first glance you might think it is a fansite or clan but that is not the case..

U.M.A.C. offers safe internet fun for all ages. We try really hard to keep it safe for small eyes and I am always open for suggestions by parents. However if I was going to have a rating for the site I would suggest it would be in the PG13 range.

Now do not get me wrong this site has many things to do for us big kids too.

U.M.A.C. is always envolving to do many things. It truely depends solely on the activeness of its members.

There is no fee to register on U.M.A.C. and you do not have to be a gamer or a clan member.. Just come by and communicate and have some fun.

Here is the link to the Flash interface. Once there click on the forums and register if you like too...

www.wikydiky.com

This is a free bookmarking site. For everyone to use.
It has only been up a couple weeks. I am trying to learn CSS, PHP, MySql and everthing in between.
This site needs support.
Try it out and see if we can make it another hot spot.
No limits. Just keep in mind its looks may change from time to time.

I am also working on a new site for a local recording company. When it is online I'll post a link.

[browie]

My site is http://www.browie.com

It's a general name, I know.

My site is a forum based on sports betting. I'm running vBulletin and using a hack called vBookie. I put up every NFL game and the Top 25 NCAA games and will be starting NHL and NBA when the seasons begin.

You can bet forum points on the games and win or lose against the real sporting odds. With your winning you are able to "buy" forum items. Common things are: Bold your user name and title, Color your user name and title, things like that. I also have a Sports Icon area where you can buy a little .gif of your favorite sports team and it shows up under your avatar.

There is also a neat little Lottery. You buy a ticket for an assigned amount and win the Jackpot at the end of the week.

I just started a month or so ago and it's been growing past 50 users and I'm still working hard to gain more users. Please join if you love sports and are into betting without losing your own money.

I have started a site for pet people. www.mypetconnections.com.
You can post pet profiles - it's a spoof of the match making sites, post to the bulletin board, chat in the chat room, lost and found pet searches, everything pet related really ...
Now I just have to figure out how to let people know it's there !
Any advice - other than the obvious , search engine registration, metatags, etc.
I've read that link exchanges can do you more harm than good ???

[stnvnet]

Well, my space isn't what you'd call a "show-off" website. It's a very utilitarian site for people looking for Star Trek New Voyages "fan-episode" files ... with almost no bells or whistles. Just text and links, not much else:

I don't think there's anything one can really do for a living that is 100% good for your health. If you can do what you love and get paid for it, then that's the field to be in. :)

Rock crawling is my passion. Unfortunately, my lack of welding and fabrication skills (Not to mention my shoddy driving skills!) makes it impossible for me to do it professionally. :rolleyes:

As far as ideas for a website go, think about what you truly love. What is it that makes you happy? Is it something you might enjoy teaching other people about?

Looks fine to me. Also the BigBrush painting site looks good. I've always wondered, though, if there's some way to determine if a user has Flash installed or not, and if not, skip the message that says "Flash required... click here to install", and not leave the top half of the page blank like it does now. Not that it's a problem, as a lot of people have Flash installed. I'm just wondering if there's a way the web page could find out if Flash is installed and modify its appearance based on that?

Not of my knowledge, but I should have made the main page with two options enter html site or enter flash site. That particular customer wanted a lot of flash on their site hence the header and all the flash forms. You question is very interesting though and I am sure a PHP or ASP programmer may be able to do something like that.

[Seb]

You can't detect if your users browser have Flash installed using PHP. However it should be possible with some Javascript, I think I've read something about it on the net.

Hmm interesting javascript should be able to do something like that. Not one of my strong points it should actually be rather simple with a redirect I would think.

I need to learn java a lit bit too, since I need it to customize my forum a little better. I was going to download one with fantastico, but I didn't wanna lose the 200+ members I have with my proboard. Even though I could use the features of bridging users. Not too worried about it though.

We have just moved to host monster from a free host and have been doing good so far. A few troubles here and there but all in all it was pretty good. Please come by the site and help build the community it would be greatly appreciated. We use a good CMS that is not on Fantastico (=P) it's been good to us so far.

very good, just remember focus on quality , not quantity

[McCoy]

Well jadvanced, I liked your sites very stylish. I have some counsel if you are interested.

Give the option of navigating the site without Flash. Maybe for your portfolio page it doesn't matter as you want to show a page as full blown as possible, but for example for that company, I think you should add a version without flash, for old computers, 56k modems and cellphone surfers (this category is increasing every day, keep it in mind. Sometimes it is even advisable to make a light small-screen centered version of the site for cellphones).

Also for the flash menu of the company page, try to add an option to the flash movie as if that option is passed as an argument from outside, it won't play the starting sound and animation. That way you can make it play on the front page and not in the rest. I always find very annying webpages in which the same animation and sound play again and again and again every time I go to another page of the site!

And my last counsel is to try to use CSS for the design and not tables when you're doing XHTML.

Other than that, I think you have a good graphic talent and aesthetic sense. Your sites look cool graphically. You only need a little little improvement in the technical side, which is easy because you're close to it.

I hope this have been helpful for you!

[jadvanced]

Very good points. Just a quick note on what you had in Mind Mccoy, I had the same ideas .(older browsers, speed and efficiency).
Before i built the site i had a demography research that i wanted to target which are businesses and companies interested in showing my portfolio, not anybody else mainly. that's why i had 99% of the site in flash. I appreciate you comments but i won't take all the credits for it. Some of the animations, I had to research how to do it and i've done from scratch.

Thanks

Good Day

[McCoy]

Yeah, that's why I said that I thnk it's ok to use flash for all your portfolio, as you are not really interested in people searching for a web designer via their cellphone :P

I only mean that those "best practices" should be employed in paid projects. And of course, only if there is some reason to, for example, make a mobile version! It's stupid to do more than needed too.

[jadvanced]

That is correct

Hello people I have this site where I sell designs, signs, websites, and pretty much any advertising you can imagine. Check it out and be a critic...Thanxx

Very interesting design concept. I'm not sure if I personally like a splash page, but it could work as a good portal for the rest of the content. I would try to redo the colors to make is a bit easier to read what you have to say.

It's always been my opinion that when it comes to sites that specialize in design, the more simple they are, the more professional they look.

Since you are also selling web design services, I would think of putting some type of portfolio so potential customers can see your work.

On a more specific note, on at least the products page, the flash navigation on the top of the screen is a bit jerky. I'm not sure this is what you are going for. Probably check your timing on the tweening events.

I've noticed here recently that we have a flash expert on board *jadvanced* I think his name is. He could give you more professional advice on the flash and design stuff.

All,

I have just launched a test version of my site Dual Earth > www.dualearth.com which is hosted on these servers and has been 8 months in development (very part time!)

It is (yet another) Social Networking site but has a few nice additions. Firstly, our users can make money from using it. Secondly, users can claim a free piece of Virtual Land which has real value - due to the way we have set the site up.

There are some nice features like being able to see photos and videos of anywhere in the world and also what i think is quite a comprehensive social networking service eg all "words" are links.

As i said we are in a test period which will go on until mid September.

Please feel free to browse, comment, and sign up if you wish.

I would really appreciate comments on this idea, concept and design which will allow us to develop and compete with the big boys.

I am of course open to constructive criticism.

Kind regards

I probably won't try to get it noticed (other than here) for a while. The basic idea is to have people who have or have had depression, anxiety,etc. get together to talk about their situation and share how they cope. The catagories and boards titles are kind of simple and plain. They need alot of work. Anyway.....

I am hosting the following site at Hostmonster:

LifesterBlog (http://www.lifesterblog.com) is a blogging and social networking site all in one. It allows users to customize their blogs, share posts, photos, videos, music and books, and connect with friends.

In LifesterBlog, not only can users upload and share multimedia content from their own computers, but also import content from popular web services. At the current stage, LifesterBlog integrates with Flickr, YouTube, Amazon, Flixn (record video comment), Yahoo! Avatar and Facebook (import profile).

The site also provides very flexible ways on privacy control. Bloggers can select access level for every post, every picture, every video, every audio and every book, and there are five access levels: public, friends, family, friends and family, or private. Visitors to a blog will see only what they have access to.

Customization is another focus of LifesterBlog. Users have various options to decorate the layouts of their blogs, and add widgets (e.g. Flickr photo badge) through a very user-friendly drag/drop interface.

Besides blogging service, LifesterBlog also offers a sense of community. Users can easily connect with friends and families, and expand their social networks. They can also create different types of groups and find new people with similar interests.

The site is currently available in different languages, including English, Traditional Chinese and Simplified Chinese.

It depends on the screen resolution. Most users have at least a 1020x768 screen resolution, but there is still a small percentage of users that have 800x600. Typically, if you design your site for a screen resolution larger than 1020x768, a high number of your visitors will have to scroll right to see everything.

I know fully well your intentions were simply to point that fact out, and lack of originality, but to the none English speaking folk, or those that don't know about phpbb themes (few they are, but they do exist), your post could have been read, and inturpreted as "you took 'that' sites idea and used it as your own'.

'Looks like' may miss lead some.

[janet_baker76@hotmail.com]

To the creator of the evangelical web site in this thread: I like it--the home page, which is all I looked at. The font in the middle column is just a teeny bit small (but I'm learning this isn't an infinitely variable feature the way it is in word processing). The contrast between the three columns is great. The colors on the rest of the page aren't "loud." Is the calendar hot? I mean, can you click on a day and see the events for that day? (If not, I'd put "coming events" there instead of a calendar because most people have a calendar.)

Very nice work. I don't have degree, either, but I use the Internet a lot for shopping and everything else, and I know what I like!

Good luck,
Jan

I'm not sure how to reply to individual posts, but I looked at many of the websites and they are fascinating! Thanks to the original poster who asked the question! There is so much talent in the world.

I am a retired English teacher and pretty darn good editor. I want to edit an on-line magazine for a particular genre of fiction called Catholic fiction, which would be good fiction with the additional element of spiritual life as affected by our faith (think Flannery O'Connor!).

My site is hardly begun, and I have a million questions and am going to the general area right away. But here it is so far:

Well since everybody else has put it on the line I'll throw my little corner of cyberspace into the mix too. www.damianos.biz (http://damianos.biz) This is my first website and it's only been online for a couple of weeks. I've busted my butt with flashkit and google trying to get it all together. I am still trying to decide on a music store strategy and I won't have any photos for a couple of weeks but it's at least in a useful state for the interim.

Any constructive comments/helpful suggestions would be appreciated

Thanks,

[griff671]

Looks awesome to me! Users connecting at slower speeds may not want to wait for it to load though.

[autodidactic]

Thanks for the compliment! I was afraid it would load slowly. This site is literally my first Flash project and it's probably intensely bloated. None of the graphics are vectorized and there are still some remnants of symbols belonging to ideas that I've abandoned. I have some major cleaning up to do. :D I do want it to be as accessible as possible but I'm not sweating it too much. I figure that since the site's biggest attraction is going to be the audio content, viewers will need a good connection anyway. :)

[MikeC]

I do want it to be as accessible as possible but I'm not sweating it too much. I figure that since the site's biggest attraction is going to be the audio content, viewers will need a good connection anyway. :)

Having a HTML version of your site will make it that much more accessible. No offense, flash wise, it's not the most appealing, so in all honesty, having a HTML version for those using older browsers or IE and FF without the plugins (lots of those around) will only help you. :)

If i was to critique the site as is, I'd agree with you on having a lot of cleaning up to do. The font for the sites title isn't right, doesn't fit in if you know what i mean, the rectangle around the nav buttons doesn't have perfectly curved edges, looks choppy...i understand the site is not done yet, but it's always best to refrain from linking until it's complete, that way, you'll get more people bookmarking you and taking a second look at your site.

Good luck. ;)

Lol brilliant, I'm not a big fan of flash but I loved to clash those objects together.

Btw, got this error after clashing for a bit

[majesticrecord]

Hi - have had a website about 11 months now and just registered for the forum. I use very little of the capabilities for building websites but wanted to share anyway. The site started as dedicated to finding information about a particular record company from 90 years ago (1916-17) - still searching - but has since expanded to include images of my collection of 78rpm records and phonographs.

www.majesticrecord.com.

Thanks.

[MikeC]

majestic, i myself have a collection of old records. Love the fact that you're doing this. :)

[majesticrecord]

MikeC - glad you like it. Thanks for replying. I have a lot of fun with it.

[shawnott]

I just finished getting my website up. There are a couple of graphics inside that need fixed and I need to add some more content, but it is up and running at least. www.shawnsstudentdebt.com

I purchased a template and then hacked around in it. I really know nothing about html and websites, so it was a real learning experience.

[whistl]

My blog - http://www.whistl.com/ - runs b2evolution and gallery software. I focus on stories about my five cats, and my technical knowledge about the UNIX operating system and IP networking.

Enjoy!

[MikeC]

whistl, nice site. Like i've told people before, change your favicon. Right now you have Hostmonsters favicon as your own. =)

[joe123123]

just a personal webpage.

I also host two other websites with hostmonster

www.atchealthcare.com - corp site :)

www.atchealthcare.net - Local site, current down for some issues i am working out but the home page is still up and running.

Very nice. May I ask what you used to build that web site? Specially the top banner?

Thanks,
Joe

[MikeC]

Joe, he used Flash by the looks of it =)

You can change the color on the top right. The "light-Navy" is best in my opinion.

I am using SMF with a modified theme which makes reading of posts much easier in my opinion.

Constructive comments welcome please :)

Thanks,

My Website :)

It's a hip-hop forum along with many other things.

check it out :)

[still.a.geek]

Here's my site: http://sysadminlinux.com.

It focuses mainly on Linux Systems Administration but will also include other Unix variants in the future. I am using Drupal for the content management. The theme I'm using for Drupal is called BlueSlash. The site is still a work in progress, but is 90% complete.

Very nice.

Say, I have a question for ya. I am a linux sys admin myself and never really got down to learning a great tool for publishing web pages. I've used Netscape composer in the past, but nothing fancy.

I am looking at Joombla as a tool and was wondering if you looked into it too or why did you pick Drupal for your we page creation?

Joe

[still.a.geek]

I've used Drupal in the past and found it to be fairly easy to use and administer. It is also very extensible by adding (or creating your own) modules and themes. Joombla is nice, too, but I didn't have time to really learn it. I've also fooled around with Plone (very hard to use and maintain) and various wiki's. Wiki's are nice, but they allow users (including anonymous users) to edit your content. You can disable editing of the content but that requires disabling each one individually. I didn't see any global settings (at least for Media Wiki and Confluence Wiki). Hope this helps you in your endeavors. :)

[Mark]

Simply using HM to host my blog and my video editing stuff, love HM!

Very easy to get started, and my domain was active in about an hour. With the huge amount of space and bandwidth available, it's by far the best service I have used.

Anyways,

http://archeron.org/ - Stop by, leave a comment, spam my mailbox, whatever tickles your fancy. lol.

[MikeC]

Hey Mark, love your blog man, some interesting stuff there!
Keep it up ;)

[Mark]

Thanks for stopping by, Mike.

I like your portfolio, great logo work. Plus your theme makes me uber jealous. lol.

[MikeC]

Oh well, you all know my Image Hosting (http://www.mojardo.com) site and my portfolio (in my sig).

Me and a friend recently set up a quick...blog, more or less.
Small Large (http://www.smalllarge.com) - don't ask about the name, we don't even know why we picked it ;)

[guidom64]

Here my Website
http://www.bonus-webhosting.com

I am with Hostmonster now for over a month and after several starter problems I can tell that they are great. Client has to understand that HM is just a Host and can't resolve several, non hosting related problems.

Now to my Website. It's the first Host directory with a crosschecking system to rank the best Hosts in business. HM is under the best 3 Hosts in the US.

Oh, and I offer several free stuff for NON clients and for clients. I do refine and update from now on, and if you want to leave a message or opinion in respect of my site do this over my Blog please
http://bwhblog.blogspot.com/

Check out and feel free to tell me your impression

[sidorak95]

My site is located at http://www.fungamesuniverse.com It's dedicated to games and game news.

[kmcgra]

There are quite a few interesting sites here. I'm learning joomla CMS. I am going to learn how to use css. I really I like the css zen garden type designs...very pretty.

But, here is a site that I put together over the last couple of evenings:

http://kickthefridge.com

thanks for checking it out!

[eskimoet]

I've clicked on every hyper link here and I'm impressed. There's some interesting and decent looking sites popping up.

But it falls to me to ruin the "winning streak" as it were.. EskimoeEthics (http://www.eskimoethics.com/) is my slice of Internet pie. It's no where near what Id like it to be yet and is currently going under some major renovations.. But it's a start I guess. And yes. The navigation bar bit does change when you hover over it! Be impressed. Sorry but it took me a long time to find out how to do it so I'm kinda proud.

There is some mild/strong language used so you've been warned. (Nothing to out there though..)

And yea there isn't much there at the moment but bare with me.... Please?

[sjlplat]

The newest addition to my portfolio.

I developed this site for a friend, who writes and produces music. I also convinced him to migrate to Hostmonster to host his site. :D

Thanks to MikeC for the layout idea and the graphic design. :cool:

[SiriusB]

The newest addition to my portfolio.

http://www.thirdlightproductions.com

Nice site, but what's with the Click Here to Enter business.

I really am against that kind of thing, as clicking on the link/typing in the address should be enough to gain me access. I shouldn't have to click another link to see the site. Other than that it's all good :D

My first "proper" website: http://smp.aeternum.co.uk

There are some issues in IE but I am a Linux user and my Windows laptop is away getting fixed - so I can't sort it until I get it back.

Hi!

Just stumbled in here yesterday and got things set up at PhotoAbuse.com (http://www.photoabuse.com). This is a place where I have been putting some of my favorite photos.

Now that I'm with Hostmonster, people will be able to see them again!

I'm on a roll. :eek: I designed this site for a local business:

http://www.highdesertravelco.com

[shadmego]

I'm waiting for my clients to give me the ok to move this to a live site (out of the testing directory), but if you would like to give your "constructive" criticism, I would appreciate it!

www.kitcorphomes.com/trial (http://www.kitcorphomes.com/trial)

I again remind everyone I've not ever taken design classes, and it might show with this site.

... Be kind

Oh yeah, it validates and no tables were harmed in the making of this site.

[SiriusB]

I quite like it. Colours aren't to my taste but it is a nice elegant site.

The only [minor] criticisms I have are:

The red/beige curves would look better with a bit of anti-aliasing. Jaggies never look good.

Possibly a bit more space between the far right of the design and the content. Feels a little cramped as there is only a tiny gap between the two.

Other than that, can't see anything else.

[sidorak95]

Well I have a clan website which is at www.ds-clan.net
Mainly for a Gaming Online Community.


There's a problem with your files...
The bottom link works and there's two broken links I think.
Also, the links on the left all go to the page you're on.
The links at the top do to.

[davebehave]

Wow, some of these sites are just incredible. 1 week ago, before I built my first site, I didn't think it would be that hard to design a website (just a bunch of text linked together with a few pictures thrown in here and there) but now that I'm actually doing it, I have a profound respect for for all you web masters out there. Here's my simple and VERY sloppy website but keep in mind this is after 3 days of experience. It's actually kinda fun to learn new stuff about running a site and every hour I study I'm re-doing my entire site from the ground up to include the new tricks I've learned. My next stop is to add little comment boxes below each post where users can give me feedback, kinda like the comments on youtube. I know my site's really crappy right now but I'm having a blast building it and learning new stuff along the way. www.mariefan.com

Nope, I don't get paid. I just like to help people. :)

This forum is a great resource for ideas and troubleshooting. Since I spend most of my time writing code and learning new functions, it's natural to check here first.

The site is to display my wifes work and generate future orders
It's a simple site with photo galleries and a email contact form

Hey all this is my first website...It's http://www.killergameszone.com
You've probably seen it before, since I needed a couple of help from you guys, I've made a number of changes in there from then.

But anyways this site is a free online games site, where you basically just go and play games, and I ussually put a couple of random jokes in there.......Hope you guys enjoy it!!!!

Hey happy people

My site is finally ready: http://www.seenyouround.com
It's a place to leave messages for people you've seen around and kind of want to see again :) Or just have a chat in the lounge forum.

Hope you enjoy it !

[griff671]

Pretty cool site! Had to chuckle though, when I went to your 'Welcome' page and the AdSense on the left is promoting cures for human parasites and worms, heh heh. (Got a screen shot if ya want it.)

[seenyouround]

Oh man, I thought they'd fixed that. I used to get them too but then I did a lot of work with meta tags etc and it seemed to fix it... :( helluva thing to be seeing on site which is about meeting / talking to people ! Oh well, looks like I have some more tinkering to do ! :o

[JJJohan]

Hmm, well I've been working on a site for a while:

http://www.renscreations.net/

I'm currently developing a 3D game on it and updating it regularly. Love the services I get here :)!

Too bad .com was taken :(.

[EasyCall]

Our site www.easycall.net has been on-line since 1998, but we just recently moved it to HostMonster AND did a complete redesign using a CSS template. It's been interesting learning more about CSS and trying to figure out what works in what browsers.

We'd appreciate any comments on how it renders on your computers, especially the menu since it's done totally with CSS; no java.

Another page I'd like you to check that does use java is http://www.easycall.net/ultra-conference/accuconference-faq.shtml to see how the FAQ show/hide script is working on your browser.

Hi all,

I'm new to Hostmonster but I think it's a great hosting so far. (10 days)

WOW :eek:, that looks SHARP! Very impressive work and effects! For me, there was only one small (and I mean small) issue: I had a "visual disadvantage" trying to read the white text on the light blue menu title bars (e.g. "Sevices", "Features", "Support", etc.), but other than that, it's great visual candy!:cool:

[schigara]

I have made a very simple site/page for my uncle to help promote his business. He is a DUI expert witness here in Memphis, Tn.

This is my first actual site using hostmonster(a real host). I have had my personal site for my auto restoration projects for about 5 years with geocities.

[sdasevne]

Our site www.easycall.net ... We'd appreciate any comments on how it renders on your computers.

Right in the middle of the page is a paragraph that is one word wide that looks strange; it says:
If
you
want
the
best
deals
but
don't
want
to
spend

Then the next section, called "AccuConference - Conference Call Service", can't be read because there's a graphic blocking the section.

I'm using IE version 6, set at 800x600.

I have several sites. This here is my the last one I made.

It's in the Internet Marketing area, for the best Membership site I know off.

[jstoll]

I'm using hostmonster for a HighSchool football website. It started as an online gallery of game images but over 2 seasons I've expanded it to become one of the better looking prep websites I've seen (course I'm probably kinda biased there, huh?). Anyway - hope you'll check it out. Feedback or recommendations are always welcome. It's at: www.lancerfan.com

I'd originally looked at templates from one of the many vendors out there but was unwilling to buy one so I developed this myself in Micro$oft FrontPage.

Hi all!

I also have several sites hosted here at HostMonster.

I absolutely love HM for it's reliability.

www.ichbineincustomer.com is 90% finished blog mainly about customer relations.

www.ichbineininternetmarketer.com or www.ibeim.com is a social network for internet marketers, not yet complete though, set up to compete with... Well, it's competitors (don't want to promote the others ^_^).

[BSM]

We've recently added a dating discussion forum - and it appears to be drawing some members (the main site is doing ok too).

The forum was built almost entirely from "canned" scripts - PHP, MySQL along with a revised theme and some mods (including tinyportal).

The forum is accessible from the main page (http://www.datingdiva.com) (link at bottom left), or just go directly to: www.datingdiva.com/DDforum (http://www.datingdiva.com/DDforum)
