Hi All,
i've been working on my website and would love some feed back. Any and all comments/suggestions are welcome. Just be warned that I don't have all of my pics loaded yet (they take forever!), and I am going to redo the homepage and page order. Whenever I find the time!
Thanks for taking a look.

Michelle,
You need to put your location on your home page, so people know where you are.
I'm looking for some kind of web site. Freewebs was suggested to me; I'm sorry to hear that it takes a long time to upload photos!
As far as the overall site, it was good and easy to get around.
I think it looks great! EAsy to navigate and easy to see all your pics.
Little linda: I have freewebs too, it does not take me a long time to load my pictures (IMO anyway) maybe 10-15 seconds each? Maybe soccermom has large files? Mine are ususally about 500KB or so and it doesnt take long at all!
I like it! It's simple and easy to get around in.
Great job on your website. It was easy to find your way. The only thing is that you should put where you are located. Maybe at the bottom of each page have a phone number and add. Besides that I love the way you placed your photos. It's nice to see a website that isn't cluttered. Again great job!

Thanks for all of your feedback. I will add the location on the hompage, and numbers to the others.
Merissa-I have dial up service and no idea how large my files are. Is there a way to condense them? I actually have to go do other things while one picture is loading, it takes that long.
Thanks for the input.

Nice site Michelle. Where is New Hartford? I am in Vinton. Halfway between Cedar Rapids and Waterloo.
hi bearcreek350.
New Hartford is 15 west of Cedar Falls. Between Cedar Falls and Parkersburg.
I know where Vinton is. I've been to the races before. That was YEARS ago. Nice to hear from another CC'r that is close!
Just a couple of small grammar items you may want to look at...
This is what you have written.....
I have had a love of baking which started over 20 years ago. (Try to avoid which)
Whether it's a batch of fresh cookies for your family, and intimate dinner party or something as elaborate as an anniversary party or wedding of any size, Delicious Desserts can help. (a couple commas and "an")
Pleas note the grammar changes below....
My love of baking bagan over 20 years ago. OR My life long love of baking has given me over 20 years of experience.
Whether it's a batch of fresh cookies for your family, an intimate dinner party, an elaborate anniversary party, or a wedding of any size, Delicious Desserts can help.
One other thing on the home page..Since you list both your name, your phone number and the town you live in do you really want to list your kid's names? Just me being hyper paranoid of course...
On the left side menu where you have Flavors, fillings, and fros... the last part of frosting is cut off. Try to shorten it a bit.
I love the way the pictures are setup...very cute. And they load quickly too.
Best of luck,
Julia
Thanks for all of your input Julia.
I truly appreciate it!
Congratulations on opening your business. How wonderful. Your website is easy to navigate and I like the set up. Do take the time to load the rest of your pics. The way it is now makes it look like you dont have much of a selection. I know it is time consuming, but I think it will be worth the wait. Great job on how it is set up. Best of luck to you.

Dial up??? At least get DSL, it's about the same cost as dial up used to be and a bit faster. I have a cable modem and can't imagine going back.
As for the upload time you are suffering from 2 problems, 1. the dial up and 2. you need to save the files "best for web". Most photo editing programs have that feature and I have found it very helpful. When you save the file look at the "file type" drop down box and you should see a few options for size.
Hope this helps
I wish I could get DSL. We're out in the country and our only option is satellite. One is really expensive and i do need to check with our dish provider. Thanks for all the input. I'll be working on changes today!

I do have one question..is this actual free site or a beefed up paid site. I'm trying to do some research on these sites and they are very deceptive.
this site is free. I have not paid one penny, entered my credit card number or anything. I suppose they make their money from their advertisers.
