New Web Page

There is a new web page for my stuffs. Right now there aren't any products on it, but there are a few pages devoted to promoting games (especially for coldstone). The site is (url="http://"http://www.genesisp.netfirms.com/index.html")www.genesisp.netfirms.com/index.html.(/url) Examine it thouroghly and tell me if any links are broken. Thanks!

Your front page?

Game Site!

BlackLite's link is broken because of the extra "." following "index.html". If you delete it, the link works fine. I blame the UBB auto-URLizer code. 🙂

BlackLite: The "Resource" and "News" links are both broken. Not to be harsh, but have you bothered to check the site yourself at all? If it were a large site, errors would be understandable, but two links broken out of a half dozen total seems rather careless to me.

I have made and remade my own website enough times to know that you do not upload a site to the web and tell everyone about it until you have tested it yourself.
You do not even have your contact page up. I would understand if it was a small section of your site but the contact page is a major section (especially as you have put it in your menu.
Once you have sorted out the broken links and the non-existant pages it will be a brilliant website. But until then it is just something nice to look at.

Thanks for the feedback. As for the broken links, I didn't realise how precise the links needed to be (the error was that my links were directing to lowercase folders, when the folders were actually capitalized). Sorry for the problem. Should be fixed now. As for the contact page, it was working, but it won't respond the way I want it to. Should be fixed soon.

Just to let you know, the resource link is still broken.

Very pretty. I like the red and yellow glowing thing at the top. Nice clean look, too. Could you add one of those gray dots on the left for the Home page? I found myself wanting to click on something that wasn't there.

Gray buttons? Those are on all of the pages excluding the contact page, which is still broken unfortunately. On that note, does anybody know how to link a page with about 8 text fields on it to an SQL database?

What are the fields for? If they are to send details to your email account then try one of the many options mentioned in the coldstone resource page topic for free options. If not then I can't help you

After about a month, the page is completed. Sorry about the broken links and contact page. It all works (or should work if not, please tell me). Thanks Pilky for the reference.

Just for the record, your software catalog shouldn't have products that you dind't actually make; it seems like you're trying to take credit for it.

Also, the Catalog link doesn't work off of the front page, because it's linking to "/catalog/catalog.html" instead of "/Catalog/catalog.html".

The reason that I am putting up other peoples games is to give them a chance to get out in the open, be reviewed and go through the revision process(Display, critique, revise, re-display, repeat)

Thats a really good idea. 😃 Perhaps though it should have a special section, under the title "Games others have made" or some such. Just to keep everything unconfusing. Heh, if (and when, hopefully) I ever make a game, I would love it to be posted on other peoples sites, as long as it was under such a disclaimer.

------------------
You know you live in Arizona when you see someone driving with oven mits on.. and you think they are clever.

but really, did you ask the owners of these games if they wahted you to show them off? if you did, here should be no problem of them being next to your own (just specifying the creator's name).

And that's cool, but the way it is currently set up makes it seem like you're taking credit for those pieces of work. You need to break those off into a seperate page if you're going to have an area that is about other people's work.

Yes, the author of those games gave me permission to post them up. Thanks for the input.
