adding things to my website

[sec]

www.hairpinleft.com is a very good site of mine but i want other things on the layout, could anyone help me think what it needs to make the layout better and easier to use. i also want to put some more images on the layout but cant think were.

rallyfan, i think you should worry about content first... :roll: I don't much of anything except some photos...

anyway, i like the graphics you use for the main banners - looks awesome... :shock:

i suggest that you write up some keyword intense content. maybe some tutorials about cars. maybe even car specifications.

get something which your visitors will like and is also unique from other car sites.

[sec]

i have car specifications you nutter!!!!

i get quite a lot of people to the site but they ignore the forum and they just visit the gallery.

ive not looked at your gallery but what about comments under the pictures? using certain words may also help your PR

[sec]

takes ages to upload the gallery as it is.

can anyone think of a quick way. to upload the thumbnails and the main size plus adding the target="_blank" it takes time i need help on it im telling you.

xbmwmys do you wanna help me with dnacities.net and hairpinleft.com and you will get
advertising.

resize your images to like 150x150 call them imagenamehere_thumb.jpg and have the original imagenamehere.jpg

create your site and insert the thumbnails in the page, and link the picture so when its clicked it will go straight to that image???
or if you dont want to do that put less pictures on a page and it iwll load quicker

well its lucky thats what i do know. but its still too long takes me 1hr to make a gallery for one rally with about 20pics on it.

[tony]

oooh just checked your site
you have done that

[tony]

have you got photoshop elements?

it has a built in feature to create a gallery, not the best gallery in the world but not bad and its quicker than doing it manually

i suggest a gallery script

[sec]

nah too much hassle!

[sec]

not really. their easy to setup and most come with an admin panel for easy image management.

it would only take 3mins to setup.
