    Question how slow is it?

    Hello, I just finished my first website for this place my sister works for. It took FOREVER but was real fun. The point is though, since it was my first, I know that there's a lot I could fix. I read up on checking sites on browers and download times and how it affects the site. I have hispeed cable and checked it out IE and Netscape and seemed ok to me. Can anyone maybe on dialup or another browser let me know how it acts up?

    p.s. also my first thread on a forum

    Um, wrong place...

    Make a different title other than index.

    I'm on a 8mb line here and the flash still didn't load.

    Flash intros are bad.

    It's cause I pretty much made everything in Fireworks and Pasted it in Dreamweaver. Is that really bad? It was just cut and paste Will it make a big difference... (clarity and stuff) if I try and fix it?

    It doesn't matter if they don't want any traffic from search engines.

    Change it to text - if someone is surfing with images disabled, the site will be useless
