- It looks good, the only issues I have is that it loads slow. It took several seconds to navigate from page to page. Other than that, I really like it.

It does look nice. I found the speed ok. I am on a speed of 4.5 MB using a router though.

- I was on a T1 connection when I pulled it up the first time. I'm on the same connection now, and it seems a little quicker I think. I am assuming that you are on shared hosting, and that's probably the case. I just opened a VPS account with Vexxhost, and my sites are loading really fast now. It's like night and day. It's my first time on a VPS, and I am really satisfied. I would highly recommend making the switch to anyone with a slow site.

Yep, I agree with that. My website was on a vps for a while but we had to dump it due to lack of funds. It's the way to go if you can afford it.

How would their VPS service compete with, say, Rochen? I am about to jump in and fiinally leave my localhost install training wheels behind for the Information superhighway and like the bandwidth they provide compared to Rochen, but I do like the Rochen speed...

Well, funny you should ask... After making the switch initially, things were smooth; however, their support is less than helpful with everything. The hosting, however, is very reliable. They offered to move one of my websites to a different VPS I that I opened with them. The site alone has about 13 gigs of stuff, so I figured that it wouldn't be a big deal for them to move it (they're the pros right??? Wrong!). It's been about a week and a half, I've sent about 10 support requests, and the only response that I received said, "please be patient, as we are having issues with your website.".. I freaked out, and to be honest, I'm still a little freaked because that's the last I heard, and that was 2 days ago. The site they are moving is around 4 years old, so it has tons of cool stuff that I will cry if it's lost.
Other than this enourmous mess, they are great. - Nick Norris and the Pursuit of Awesomeness

hi. very nice header!!!!
I am struggling myself with exchanging the black header with something I like (images, banner etc.) but due to my lack of skills I currently cannot. I tried to play with template css (logo and header px) and also replacing the logo image, but the corners are very sharp and it can be seen the old black logo loads before.
Anybody, has any short instruction how to manage the change?
many thanks
ALEX
