While I'm at it - I've noticed that within the cost table, there's a
£20 charge for a domain name. I hope that doesn't mean that the
customer is going to get an account with Freenetname, NDO,
ConnectFree or any other free domain provider. :|

Exactly. It's registered to a Mr. "John McCon" at Freenetname. It
does inspire a lot of confidence :)
Without prejudice:
Also, isn't Mr. Waghorn the chap that used a "secure" password
authentication system which eventually lead to the exposure of his
account's password? The web page style of the above site looks
awfully familiar...
Mmmm..

A better deal could be found by getting any old website software off of
a coverdisk and spending 5 mintes knocking it up yourself.

John McCon is the official owner, I brought the domain off him for £5.
I have never before used password prompts in my pages, and I don't
intend to, its a optional extra for customers.

In which case, you'll need to inform Freenetname of the change,
otherwise you'll be in violation of their terms and conditions,
namely section 5:-
"All registration information supplied to us by you must be true,
complete and accurate. You must not impersonate any other person. You
must notify us of any changes to the information immediately by e-
mail to ad...@freenetname.net. We will not disclose your personal
information, except for that detailed in Paragraph 9, to anyone else
unless you agree or where we are obliged to do so by law or where we
are asked to co-operate with any police or government body."
I would assume that changing domain name info would also constitute
the above.

I did see it, I also failed to see anything that special about it. I
did notice my browser displaying it's "Unahppy due to poor HTML" red
face though. I see nothing on your site that suggests it is of high
quality, it seems just like a very normal basic website, not that I'm
saying that is in itself a bad thing.

I am and I appreciate all feedback. If I was not interested, I would
reply with rude comments or not at all. I feel my service is worth
£25, if you don't think so then please find a cheaper deal
elsewhere... For example, go to:
http://candacefitzgerald.com/prices.htm
and you will see that a similar deal to mine is sellign for $500!!!

It is meant to be basic. If I added lots of GIFs and other elements,
the page would take too long to load, thus losing valuable customers.
Thanks for your feedback by the way.

Alright guys, I think you've beaten him up enough! ;-]
My word of advice to Mr Waghorn - and something you should already know:
Sit on a newgroup, observe the subject matter and tone of messages before
actually posting. Even then beware of posting a message that could be
construed as feeble spamming - especially in uk.net. Above all, beware of
being labelled a fuckwit - something I'm sure you are in danger of
(inability to receive clue.....)
You're only lucky {R} hasn't stepped in here!

You want professional?
a) use style sheets
b) use a DTD
c) Run everything through the W3C validator.
d) Use named entities instead of high ascii characters
e) Always use alt tags
f) Lose the bloody funny "Don't steal my graphics or I'll come get you and
all your accounts" sentence
g) Loose javascript that servers no purpose.
h) Don't use the windows character set
i) Try to use correct parameters, see your contents frame as a prime example
of adding parameters to a tag, which don't exist
j) Acknowledge external copyright holders. Do not use logos without
permission.
h) If you're saying you do all your own graphics, don't use stock animated
gifs on your contact page
k) Learn how to turn image borders off in links
l) And if you have your own domain, why do you use a hotmail address?
(Christ I'm bored today, even my new WAP phone isn't amusing me!)

Nothing personal, but I just loaded your webpage using Netscape 4.7
(Solaris version) and it is, errrhhh, not quite the most impressive
bit of design I've ever seen. Several fundamental problems:
* The fancy textbox thingy is too wide for the left-hand frame.
* All the graphics have ugly white borders around them. (Don't
forget that you can't rely on the default background colour
being white, because it's grey on some systems.)
* The "Services" page is unviewable due to a missing external
Javascript script.
Of course, I am not a professional web designer, but those
are my opinions...

Even better, it's sometimes grey, sometimes white, depending on what
mood your web browser is in, despite the fact I've set the background
colour to white. Isn't Netscape wonderful.
I'm guessing the software page is a joke too. "only the best software",
then he goes on to list FrontPlague. Hmm.

A couple of (hopefully) constructive suggestions
regarding your web design firm:
1. By all means assert your copyright over your
works on your web pages but I would remove the
bit about reporting people to the police. It's
unnecessary and makes you appear unfriendly.
2. If I click on HOME in the left frame from any
page other than the homepage I get two menu
frames.
3. Your pricing policy cannot, surely, be
workable. According to your site I can have as
many web pages as I like for £300 with as many
updates as I like, whenever I like, taking as
long as I like. What if someone were to come
along and ask you to put their dictionary on-
line? Oh, by the way it's unabridged and I want
each word to have its own page.
It seems to me that you leave yourself open to
some especially nasty abuse if your price policy
remains as it is.
All the best with your business.

John Arnold
