Hello Ladies. I have redesigned my website and I'm looking for your opinions. If you remember my old site it was purple with geometric designs in the background. It was really "busy" and crowded and got people lost. I bet if I look, there's still some lost souls. [Smile]

I wanted something simple and straightforward and I think I achieved that.

Would you please look?

thanks!!!

Vicki,
I agree with you that the other site was busy, but I will tell you I had no trouble navigating once I visited. But...since you have changed it, I'm going with the new format as my fav with one exception. I think a colored photo would be more eye appealing. You are a beautiful person, HAVE LOST 47 LBS, so where is the new pic? Anyway, it's orderly, neat (same meaning I guess) and I like it better. That's my two cents worth. I haven't checked all the links yet to see if they all work properly though. I just did an overall thingy...Hugs, JJ

Vicki, the intro is so moving and dynamic I kept waiting for the drum roll. Makes a person want to read you. Happy Halloween to you too...very cute little witch. [Wink]

thanks for taking the time to look at my site. I really appreciate it.

I am getting really great comments about the site.

JJ, I'll work on getting a new pic. [Smile]

Charleen, I thought the witch was cute too.

Vicki, the website is fabulous. I like the clean look.

I agree, you need a color picture!

I also noticed you have a nice forum for writers. I plan to visit often for tips.

If there was anything I would change, it would be to center it - but some software programs won't let you do that.

Great content.

Vicki I like the new site! I know a lot of authors use black and white photos not only on their websites but bookcovers....while it's more "dramatic", I think on your website you could certainly go with a color photo instead. The site is "clean" and easy to navigate - I like it!!!!!!! [Big Grin] [Big Grin]

Wow, the concensus really seems to be to go with a color picture. I guess I never thought of it being that much different.

Thank you everyone for your comments, I really appreciate you taking the time to review my new site design.

Dian, thank you for checking out my writers' forum. I hope it gets lots of hits now that I've cleaned up my site.

Songbird, would you believe that my husband wrote that poem, "I Believe" ... he wrote it right after 9/11.

TVC, You should see my library, I have 3 or 4 shelves of just S.K.'s books.

I agree with everyone else about the color picture! Color does make a big difference.
