Thanks for pointing out the error greg -

Ive taken a look and I see what I did wrong - I'll get that fixed in a jiffy.

Im currently in process of creating the directory with all names in it - just linking direct to the search results - but it will allow you to browse - it seems to be the most requested feature.

Cheers

FYI:

I found what appears to be an error, here is how I was able to recreate it:

I went to your site, and did a search for something it found (ie. Pamela Anderson). It brings up the page of results. Then on that page, enter a name that has no matches. (I did a search for Jewel). Now the page comes up saying No Files could be found, however the navigation buttons from Pam are still there, and if you click on them, then you get several errors.

I agree with Busy, how about a link for listing all names in case we just want to browse.

-Greg

PS. everything seemed to come up nice and fast here (DSL connection).

Took me 3-4 seconds to see the results, excellent speed.

Sadly in a fit of i don't know what i deleted most of my wallpapers. If/when i get round to making some more i'll be happy to submit them to you...

The index page IMO is to simple and plain, maybe some intro text or something (will also help search engines).
I didn't want to look for pam (not my cup of tea) but then thought, hmm who could I search for, tried some but realised I don't know how to spell their names, maybe include a site map or list of woman who you have.
I tired to find a common name (ended up with christ) it came back with lots of results, Christina Aguilera, Christina Applegate, Christina Milian, Christina Phillips and others, lots of results and I actually lost track of how many pages in I went, maybe if results have more than two people, just show the names of the girls so people can just choose the one they wanted. Mind you, I supose some guys wouldn't mind going thru them all

Nice I have to face stupid reality and do some work

I was actually contemplating sending an old smelly sock to every celebrity that did something dumb - like britney spears getting married - i thought it might raise a bit of publicity.

Would cost me a lot of socks with all the dumb celebs out there.

Yea the logo is pretty basic - Artwork isn't my thing though - so if anyone fancies having a go

Thanks for your review

Looks good. It took me 23 seconds to get Pam up but I'm on a T1 line here. The biggest thing you need here is a better logo (and some sort of connection between "Old Socks" and celebrities.)

Edit: 23 seconds is how long it took for the page to completely load.

I've still to add an upload feature so people can upload their wallpapers to the correct place.

If you would like to send me some via email - webmaster@oldsocks.co.uk then I would gladly accept them and put them in the database.

What celebrities am i missing? - over 500 in their my heads spinning with all the names.

Thanks for your review - I will always accept any help that is given

roughly 7 mississippi's... to get pam up

I like the idea of this... I'd been toying with it myself i'd collected loads of wallpapers over my yrs on the net and thought about doing a repsoitory...

How are you handling using other peoples work? & are you gonna accept submissions? I can think of some girls who you're missing.
