Well my first website project is almost complete :)

When its up and running I'll put a link here (as long as the owner doesnt mind of course!)

Everyone else who was interested seems to have gone quiet on me?

Anyone out there still wanting a site?

Be quick though - I cant offer freebies forever :)

If any of you have been considering taking up Mrs Jackaroo's offer, DO IT NOW - she is now looking for a new project as she has finished building my website for me, so send her a PM.

You just need to know what you want it to look like and your content and Mrs J will do all the hard work building the site. She is a dream to work with, very tolerant and enthusiastic. I would recommend you take her up on her offer now as she will soon be turning this into her business and that means it'll cost you $

:):):):)

Thanks Rach:thumbup:

Well my first project is now live :)

www.brisbanebritsrentals.com

I really enjoyed doing this as it was definitely good practice!

Its pretty basic (which was how Gill wanted it) but I'm pleased with it :)

Sorry but the freebies are now no longer - I've got a few projects on the go now and am struggling a bit to keep up with them all now that I'm back at TAFE full time.

How he does it beggars belief, as a wise man said in a ( Jackie Gleeson ) Smokey and the Bandit film... "there aint no way you came from my loins"

He simply buys the templates off Template monster, then adapts them as do many people. ;) http://www.templatemonster.com/

Good looking site there. :thumbsup:

I'd recommend checking out the site below, downloading the resource files (a HTML & a CSS file) and deconstructing them to find out just how powerful CSS can be when designing a site.

http://www.csszengarden.com/

Using CSS is a great way to separate the design from the content. it can also help to make it easier for the Search Engines to find the content.

The site above was a great way for me to slim down email AD's for a few clients. i was usually able to reduce the email size by at least 50% by using CSS instead of tables. Even in this broadband world we have now, people are still soooo impatient when waiting for a site to load.

Keep up the good work.

Thanks for that Darren. Yep CSS is definitely very very useful. I'm starting to get better with it but I'm only 6 months into my course so it takes time.

This is the site I've put together now for TAFE http://www.richmondit.com.au/rach which I think is starting to get closer to my goal :) At the moment we've only worked with incorporating CSS within tables but I'm pushing to get them onto divs asap. I can code divs.....but using divs in Dreamweaver at the moment is proving a bit harder - I'll get there though :)

Thanks again

Rach

Not a big issue Rach but the rollovers on the above site don't work correctly in Safari on the Mac. I know it's only got about 5% market share compared to 75% for IE, but hey, I'm a Mac using and we have to fight our corner :p

a {
outline: none;
}

Thanks Ste - so that will take the outline of the hover on links will it? no not the hover...the click?

Re: Does anyone need a website?
 
Just been having a good look aver the site.

Havent looked at the code yet.

But its very slick, fast, and albeit there are a cpl of style issues , which are easily altered, it really is eye candy !

Be very proud of yourself.

Thats GOOD WORK !!!

I would hire you !
