Thanks so much for taking the time to comment Markus! I must say I'm a little disheartened by the lack of support from list members. I guess maybe it is due to me not posting or contributing to Pentax related discussions as regularly anymore as I am so busy with work, but I've always thought of the people on the list as a kind of pseudo family - particularly those who I met at GFM, and we have received precisely two responses from my post - one from yourself and one from a very wonderful lurker who I have never met, but who has given us a very generous donation!! So, at least we know that the Paymate option works fine as this lurker is in the UK, but I really thought there would be more interest from others, and especially the list "regulars".
I was so excited to have the site up, and although I do understand that it was completely off topic, I rushed within 5 minutes of it going Live to send an email to the list to share my excitement with everyone! I am truly hoping that it is just a symptom of busy people leading busy lives and hopefully not one of people not caring about the kids we are trying to save. Anyways, thankyou so very much for taking the time to view the site and to offer your comments and support! I'm not sure why you are having problems with the font - we chose that font to give the site some quirkiness and to look appealing to kids and families. Due to the way we have done the template and to ensure that it always displays correctly, where ever you see the font, it is actually a jpg or gif that has been added rather than using text. So, I honestly have no idea why it would look soft or two small. My monitors are set to 1280 x1024, and these are the monitors that I put the site together on, and I view them really easily. In fact, I was concerned that it may have been two big in places on lesser resolutioned monitors. If you have any thoughts on how I may correct the problem, I would love to hear them - we really want it to be accessible and aesthetic to everyone viewing it (remember, we WANT them to hang around for a bit and hopefully leave a donation, or make a purchase!). Thanks again Markus, it is very much appreciated!! tan. :) Tanya Mayer Photography Brisbane, Qld, Australia www.tanyamayer.com Ph +61 (07) 3315 4549 -----Original Message----- From: Markus Maurer [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] Sent: Saturday, 16 April 2005 7:20 PM To: [email protected] Subject: RE: Tan's Ride - our new site is Live!! Hi Tan Congratulation on your work and I wish you all the best with your project. I just had a first glance at the site and will comment in more detail later and have a look at the photos ;-). At first sight, I struggle to read the menu easily. It does indeed look good but the font are not very sharp here and a bit too small (for me) on my 2 monitors at 1280x960. Otherwise a very aesthetic site. greetings Markus >>Woohoo!! Guys and gals!! Remember our big ride across Australia >>that we are >>doing for charity??
