I dont notice the table re-sizing problem. i made my text as big and as small as it could get, and nothing disturbing happened to the tables..

Thanks deciever, I think I fixed that issue by wrapping css tags around the tables themselves. FYI for anyone trying to do the same.

With a name like "Glowhost" you should really hone in on the "glow" idea. An alien type effect might work.

Okay fine you made me agree my logo stank the big one. So look what I have now. I'm not sure what to think on this one.....it Glows, and is cooler per say but Im not so sure it fits with what we are selling...
Plus the logo placement is a little awkward maybe? Or does it look okay?

New page header: http://glowhost.com/indextest.php

Old Page Header: http://glowhost.com

Any thoughts on the new logo/header are appreciated.

Thanks,

Matt

Well the new skin really I have seen a little less than before as far as signups go, but I am attributing this to loss of some tracking codes causing a de-listing on a few important search engines as well as to heavy, heavy pages (60-100k)which so far have been reduced (and are being reduced) to about 20-33k YAAAAAAY.

Still though the tables resizing thing really annoys me. Any suggestions?

page looks good

I like the new skin you put on it, makes it really easy to navigate. I especially like the fact that you have the nav bar at both the top and bottom of the page. Makes it so much easier than scrolling to the top to change the page.

Has the site been successful for you?

Hey guys and gals, you rock.

Page is down to a respectable 33k or so.

Looks good to me and must be okay for dial-up'rs

one problem tho....

When one goes to resize the text the tables move/resize.

I want them to be static/not-resizable.

Can anyone provide a snippit?

Regards,

MAtt

I'll help you out with slimming it down a bit, give me an email or a PM
As for a review of it, it loads fine on Cable, but everything does
I was expecting something glamorous of the site... it bored me and I didn't even finish looking through it
You have to walk that fine line between exciting and annoying

Actually what you are seeing with the second head tag is an PHP include of another document altogather.

Maybe ill get rid of those head tags as I suppose they aren't needed in the footer at all really.

The reason the code is so ugly as well is that I compressed it a bit to get the best load times but I guess what i really need to do is clean up some of these redundant tags...

arg.....maybe ill give a postback when i think im good.

Thanks for the tip folks!
