I finally got fed up with my old web hosting service and switched to iPage. My new website only has 5 pages, and I'm limited to using the site templates and features that are included with their service (unless I pay extra, of course. Then the sky is the limit).

The good news is that the site is more visually appealing than before, and I'm able to include more and bigger photos and "Buy Now" buttons for the available bears.

Please stop in if you have time for a look.

I really like your site, Becky.  It is easy to find your way around and the bears all look fab!

Looking good     Your contact form is hanging over into the template border on my screen, but it's still perfectly usable

dangerbears Sep 11, 2011

Thanks, Katy. (The contact form does that on my screen, too, but as you say - it works. :whistle:)

I like the new website. The side is easy and one has in view everything.

dangerbears Sep 11, 2011

Thanks, Conni. I'm glad you could see everything.  :dance:

They had another template that I really liked, but it was huge, and nowadays, people look at websites from all kinds of devices - some of them with small screens. I decided that a smaller layout was better.

Hi Becky,

On my screen too, the contact form crossed over the border into the grey area.  I don't mind that really, but what I did mind was that I couldn't read the article in Teddy Bear and Friends.  Of course my eyesight isn't what it used to be  , but I wonder if it wouldn't be possible to open it in a pop-up window like you did for the photos of the bears?

Other than these two points, the website really looks great: easy to navigate, lots of good photos of the bears, good lay-out, ...  :clap:
I wonder if it wouldn't be a good idea to add a "collector's comments" page; I am sure that you have gotten lots of comments from satisfied customers! 

Hugs,  :hug:

Looks lovely!!!! Especially like the colors around your title!   :clap:  :clap:  :clap:

dangerbears Sep 11, 2011

Thanks, Peter and Heidi!  :hug:

Maybe I can figure out a way to make that magazine article readable, beginning with a very high-res scan, I suppose...

Really nice website, Becky!!!
I like everything,
will be happy to put your link on my website too,
can I use your avatar from TT?

dangerbears Sep 11, 2011

Yes, of course, Tatyana. I'll link to your website, too. :hug:  (On your website, by the way, I had trouble reading the yellow words on the home-page menu. Maybe they could be a darker color?)

Thank you for the feedback, ladies!

Margaret, the server was down for awhile one day, which didn't make me very happy.

Susana, I really like your website, too. It's clear, and I enjoyed reading the profile description about you.

Thank you, Lisa! :hug:

Everyone's advice was super helpful. I now have, 1.) a "Subscribe" form that fits on the page, 2.) a magazine article that's expandable, 3.) mailing list services from Mail Chimp  :dance:  :dance:  :dance:

Bear hugs,
