Major cosmetic change to theLIGHTsite!

Tell me what you think! Aiming for a more professional, distinctive look. It may not seem "Major", but time-wise it was a real pain...

More changes on the way in the near future...

Please let me know if you find any errors or issues!

Thanks!

Very nice. Ditto FC's reply.

Hello Doug,

I think it looks both "professional and distinctive."

I must admit that I have never paid that much attention to how your site looks. I spend all of my time trying to absorb the information on your site. I think it is a top notch site for review information on flashlights (and head lamps). My criteria is that a site should not get into your face, but should let you find the information you need, easily. Your site qualifies. With that said, I think the improvements are just that - improvements.

Which headlamp is Fred's favorite? /ubbthreads/images/graemlins/grin.gif

Fred's cool!!!
I'm gonna have to pick me up one of those for headlamps, since I don't photograph so well since coming out of the hospital. Let's just say I don't like having my picture taken anymore.

What DieselDave said.

Nice. Like you said, looks more profesional. definitely worth the efforts. What is Fred doing there? Trying new headlamps? /ubbthreads/images/graemlins/grin.gif

Thanks, All! I'll be making a few more changes - buttons, and perhaps some of the layout. Fred says "Hi!" /ubbthreads/images/graemlins/smile.gif

Craig, I got the foam head from a company that supplies them for museums and history buffs for displaying old uniforms. Searching the web for "Foam head" will only return a few places that sell them.

Looking good!


I dod notice something I hadn`t before - namely where you`ve put your Nedstat thingy. It seems from where it is that it`s reading a lot of false hits arising from people visiting the site, looking in a category then returning to the homepage by clicking the home link, which notches up another hit even though it`s the same person. I looked at the referrers and over 40 of the last 100 hits came from internal pages.

Just a little suggestion, but it would maybe be better to put it on the enter-here/index page, that way it`ll just read the individual visitors and not multiple hits per person, giving a more accurate count. And even if half the current hits are multiples from the same person, you`re still doing better than I am! /ubbthreads/images/graemlins/tongue.gif


But other than that, I like it! The colour scheme is distinctive and classy-looking too. A great site just got a little bit better....
