Posted this about a week ago was hoping at least for a comment or two. I

spent about a month learning the types of coding necessary to put all

the different scripts together... It's one reason I have been so quiet

lately..



Anyway, last try... http://www.newenglandtreemasters.com ...



I know a couple links are still dead. I spent the last two weeks

building the "Portfolio Page" and putting in the controls.. The

"Equipment" page took a while too but it has a display script, inside of

another display script. The Flash presentation on the front page is

"stock" but I did add my own objects and actions to in for another

website I am working with, doing that in Macromedia Flash... Most of the

adjustments to the site are border and background colors and making

things line up with the Cascading Style Sheets that are the basic layout

and feel of the site etc... Anyway, the customer really likes the color

scheme but I still have to do a new logo... And ironically, like I said

before the customer speaks English as a second language and hired me to

"communicate" to the customers for them





I can appreciate the amount of work you have done on this. It's obvious

when you visit the website. The only comment I have ... and it's meant

to be constructive criticism ... it's *way* too busy. I got lost

after following a link or two. Maybe your customer likes it but as a

first time visitor to the website I wouldn't stay long. Too confusing

to navigate.



Maybe a more simple home page with a link listing of services that are

better organized by purpose. Appropriate videos could be viewed from

within the links rather than displaying them all on the home page. I

sorta lost the idea of what the company does.

Yeah, at first the services page was the "homepage" but we decided that everyone knows we take down trees, so we stress what makes us better than the rest. The no damage to lawn and property is the biggest thing we want to push on the front page, the other is the trucks and equipment. This is Luis hobby and he even want more of them there but absolutely does not want to lose the flash intro either.... He used to have a simple page, but he said "I have the best equipment in the most of the country, and a plain old website" then he showed me three other sites of his biggest competitors and said "I want mine to look better than theirs".... so we went for it. I can change it on a dime though, that's one thing I did when I built it. Hundreds of "containers" I built so I can change it on the fly.. Thanks for your input, any news on that sellers contract. I would like to submit it to the bank as an example of where I am going... thanks...
