Well after a weekend of sweat and tears and much help from Melissa (my website guru) I have finally got myself a website......and learnt that a career in IT is definately out of the question for me 

There are not many bells and whistles  to it but overall I'm pretty happy.  If you get a chance to take a look I would love to know what you all think.

Melanie, it's clean and pretty and easy to navigate and undestand, and your bears are beautifully highlighted.

I think you did a marvelous job!

I do understand the frustration part, tho; it can be absolutely maddening.

Super job!!!

Hi Melanie,

Easy to navigate and nice and clear. Best of luck.

Mel, your site looks great, it's easy to use, and the pictures of your bears are great.  Like Shelli said, your bears are nicely highlighted.

I added your link to I Love Teddies.

ahem...don't think I was of any practical help - I just furiously texted Mel all weekend as she was building it....in fact, I want to learn a few things off her!

Thanks girls for all the lovely feedback - most appreciated 

Chrissie thank you so much for adding my link to your website.  A links page is on my to do list and I'll certainly add you and all the Teddy Talkers who would also like to be added to it (I'm sure there is thread around that has a list of the people who wanted to exchange links??).

Anne Tilby the globetrotter (cat on the globe) is a OOAK has was a commision made from a photo (hence the little black mark on his nose).  However I do plan on making more cats on balls/globes etc in the near future including a calico (my childhood cat).

Thanks once again for all your lovely comments.

Mel
PS Melissa you are being far to modest. I couldn't have done it without you.

Mel, I think you've done a great job on your site. It's crisp and clean, easy on the eyes shall I say. It loaded quickly which is definitely another plus. Great job! I'll swap links with ya when my site is finished!

You've done a great job with your new website!!!     Its very easy to navigate, all the pics pop up fast and clean, and your bears, one after another gave me a smile     

I know what you mean about getting your head around IT work.... I was so  fried    when I built my website.  I don't think I'd used my brain that much since I'd gotten out of college     But it is fun to tackle a challenge, and I think you've tackled this one and come out on top  :hug:
