The current banner is 200x2000. Plan on most screens only showing the first 1280 pixels.

Rick,

I just realized that this was in error. I NOW recall that her statement of somebody being Chinese was about someone else.

Actually, her reference about you was that you remind her of “one of the Chippendale Guys”.

Whoever THEY are… :wall: :jester:

It's us. I apparently broke some of the code when we applied the current skin to the site. I will probably just reinstall it, and check for patches on the skin.

Do you think there is a chance you might change the page in the new layout..I have a really tough time reading the light text on that plain, faded background..A little color would make it easier..Probably because the old eyes aren't what they used to be too, but it just doesn't jump out at you and say, spend some time here, read me..

Oh, I forgot something..If you don't fix it in a timely manner I was going to send someone around to smack you around a little..get my point across... :guns:

But, with this economy, it will be a little tough to get good people..Ah, I find I'm a little short of money this month, so do you think it is possible to borrow a little cash up front..these people tend to want their money right away..
Hmm, ah, well it seems I lost my black book on knee breakers.. Would you happen to know any good people back there. If so, could you maybe ring them up, appraise of the situation, give them your address and then have the right amount of money when they get there, cash preferably, they don't take checks or money orders, strange way to do business... :D

I really appreciate this.just let me know which room you will be in at the hospital so I can send some flowers and a get well card...Ah, you don't know any good florists back there do you.Crap I see my credit card is over its limit, you wouldn't want to maybe go online and send yourself some flowers would you. After all, who knows better what you like than you yourself..
This is so much easier than the old days... :ahh:

Sorry it had to come to this, but better now before you really make some one mad... :fogey:

I will take your requests into strong consideration when I dive back into the site.

Also, anything from Alice's Garden will do. I do tend to like flowering potted plants though, they tend to stick around longer than fresh cut... :wall:

I'll have to agree with Leep... however, I'm sure there is a lot more to go before all is complete on the site. I don't know what all that goes into developing a web site such as this, so forgive me if I tend act like I'm dreaming on.... I don't mean to be knocking it. I guess I should be grateful there is a Tyrone web site. One thing for sure, we do have "Rick" who does an outstanding job in its operation.... that, in itself, is very much appreciated by all. If, for some reason, nothing more can be done... that's fine... I'm happy with what we have.
In my opinion,the home page is dull and doesn't jump out and grab your attention. The only color that jumps out are the advertisements. I think we are looking for something like the " wearecentralpa.com " home page and site. It is attractive, colorful, very informative, and interactive with the public. Everyday there is something new and different. They put questions up for public opinion and or polling, etc. and many other things are attractivly presented. The colors are presented nicely by all that is included on the page.... it's not just the ads that are colorful. Along the top ( L corner )they include a picture of scenery around the area which changes every so often. This site is attractive and makes you want to go there, stay there, and read all that is presented.
Just My2Cents, which isn't worth a nickel :mrgreen: .
