Starting a New Business?
yes, I`m still here in Oz for those who know me and wondering if i am heading back or not, things have changed and we are now a lot more settled and going to give it a go
Anyway, i was just wondering how many of us have here have started their own business, what type, and how you are getting on with it.
I am having a website built just now and was sent a basic snapshot of roughtly how it will look,and just wondered what you guys thought of it as i aint sure about how its set out.
i aint advertising so i hope the thread doesnt get shut down

The site looks good - nice colours and very easy to look at.

Re: Starting a New Business?
Somehow i thought you would be the first to post to this thread
It has been a bit of a rollercoaster time for us wendy and although we did almost click the mouse to book our tickets back we are now glad that we didnt. Although we knew ourselves at the time that we didnt really try with (anything) it was really hard to get motivated and the easy get out was to head back. we still miss all the family and friends a lot but we have a few of them coming over in April for 6 weeks and in August for a month which we are looking forward to
Hows things over there?

Hi John
Just had our meds yesterday, got our police checks back and waiting on the OH cousin lodging our bond (which is stressing me out as she is leaving it to the last minute!) Putting the house up for rent in the next few weeks and hopefully be out by May.

Can give you a free one, similar to a site we did for a friend ( www.coolshyte.com ) the template cost $150 usd.
I think its a great idea, you have the entrepeneureal skill ( lol my spieling is shorking )
Go for it, as a guy thats ALWAYS been self employed, I cant recommend it highly enough, but get a good accountant , and be fastidious and realistic.
Even when nothing is happening keep busy, keep on the ball.. and keep plugging away.

I know it looks really bare at the moment as there are no products added or checkout/basket amongst other things but i think (hope) that it has potential to look the part.
It bloody better cause you guys will all be buyin from me
Here it is >>>>> www.priceless-computing.com.au

Looks like an Ozcommerce website template.

On my normal setting of 1280 x 960, it looks OK, but if I change it to the one that most people use (1024 x 768) I have to scroll across to see the 'e-mail' us bit - I would get that into the main window if possible.
There's also some of the words getting crammed together on mine, mainly the shipping, contact us and whatever else it says on the right hand side and the All major credit cards accepted bit on the left. That's on both settings. That's in Internet Explorer, haven't looked in any other browser.
