LOL Yeah, I've done that a few times myself various places.

At least you have a valid excuse

I'm afraid that I replied, then realized that the arrows were to "last page" and not "next page"

What is with the new fad, looking at really really old threads? I guess me and otterbob aren't cool

Considering the post is over five years old I'm not surprised.

I also went to check it out and found "Site not found".

"Page Not Found"

Carolyn, I think you can use images in these forums...
This should work:

If this works you put the images you kindly created up here for opinions

ok, I took a better look at your web site. I really like your background pattern. You can spice things up very easily by taking your heading/logo "The Irving Park Fine Arts
Committee" and making a striking graphic out of it. JP had a good idea with the clef too. I'll give you a couple of examples I did (10 minute graphics in a paint program)

I would be happy to make something for you if you want, I still have "fun" doing it
feel free to e-mail me if your interested

you can also add a few little tasteful graphic bells and whistles (buttons/bars etc......)without overdoing it.

Highlight the current/new info so people will know exactly where to go if they are in a hurry.

Your frames work ok but I wasn't able to see the bottom of the first frame because I have a smaller monitor.
It might be interesting to play with a different background on one frame for a little contrast, just a thought

the reason your not getting lots of hits on your website isn't because of the design. If you want to get hits plan on spending either a little time or money to promote your site.
take care,

Actually GPSiii, the URL is in your profile. The image with the 'little face/interogation mark'.

For future reference use UBB code for URL's
so they appear like so http://www.what-next.com/ubb/ubbhtml/ubbcode.html

Anyway to your site...
- First impression is that of a rather plain site, you need to liven it up a bit, more colours etc.

- Visit the promotion section of these forums as you have no Meta Tags, these are essectial to a successful site.

- Bin the counter.

- I would have a nice image logo, perhaps that clef in small?
