very impressive Peter :)
The site itself is very easy to navigate around and looks VERY professional.
The only fault is,...
your not local :(
:thumbs:
looks good Peter, have to agree about the beemer though - surely that was staged, nobody lets their car get that dirty... do they :blink:

shes got an rx8 , and wanted to sell the z3 but after i did the valet she changed her mind , got the rx8 booked in for a full job in a few weeks
Very nice Peter :)
Just wish you were local, I'd book you for an all-dayer on mine!
I quite like the layout/look :)
What a frickin job on that manky Beemer, holy hell. Did you wear an NBC suit going in there? ;)

lol just my gloves for that one i worked my way in
Very nice site m8, easy on the eye and nice to navigate! :cool:
Any reason why the gallery opens up into a new window when the other links do not? Was that deliberate?

not sure bobbeh , could be to do with pic size
Yeah, it looks like the designer has used some macromedia image gallery viewer, would probably be too tight integrated into the main frame.
Just make sure you put the URL on your van now Pete! :D

Looking good Pete...
Shame about the rubbish area you cover, I was hoping to see Essex in there with no fuel surcharge.. ;)
Really good looking site, I first thought you might want some more details of the car and type of job done with the pictures, but am now having second thoughts.. That'll just make it more cluttered.
how local will you be doin?
im near salisbury?how much will that cost me?
good site tho
Looks good Peter. Is this supposed to be a custom design for you?

It doesn't really matter it's based on a template IMHO, it still looks good and keeps costs down. :p
Do you do the buffer thing in the pic as well Pete? Only it's not mentioned in the blurb.

Sorry, just re-read what I said and it didn't come across in the way I meant it.
What I meant to say is it a template (pretty sure it is - seen it before) or a custom design. Like you say, templates are often a good cost-cutting measure and I repeatedly have customers asking for templates, it wasn't a dig at all.
That said, if pete was expecting a custom design and got a template he may not be impressed.
Either way, it looks good and really suits the business it is portraying. Nice one! :)
Tell your web designer to stop pimping himself in your metatags ;)

Yeah, I spotted that lol, what a way to help your customer - whack yourself as the first tags in the headers lol.
Peter - what do you use for odour removal? I have a Subaru Legacy that spent a lot of it's life on a farm, the interior smells like a cow's bum hole and I can't seem to shift it (and yes I've had a shower, it's not me!).
"badly stained seats and carpets will incur a surcharge, also dog hair"
Kinda sounds like you'll sprinkle dog hair on any seats you spot with stains?

Loads very quickly, and looks very good. I only have one observation. On the photos you have the date stamp, it would probably be better if they weren't their as they would date the website very quickly
Bah .. the websites not working for me :(
Not working for me either.

down for me atm , pete there is a reference to machine polishing , but its in its infancy atm , theres a big difference between polishing and actual paint restoration , which im in the process of sorting takes time and practice , so i dont mind atm if its low key on the site

Down for me to seems to be a DNS issue :( is your host down?
I always advise people to have at least two DNS servers preferably in two different global locations...!
Category Status Test Name Information
Parent PASS Missing Direct Parent check OK. Your direct parent zone exists, which is good. Some domains (usually third or fourth level domains, such as example.co.us) do not have a direct parent zone ('co.us' in this example), which is legal but can cause confusion.
INFO NS records at parent servers Your NS records at the parent servers are:
ns167.websitewelcome.com. [NO GLUE; No A record]
ns168.websitewelcome.com. [NO GLUE; No A record]
[These were obtained from ns4.nic.uk]
PASS Parent nameservers have your nameservers listed OK. When someone uses DNS to look up your domain, the first step (if it doesn't already know about your domain) is to go to the parent servers. If you aren't listed there, you can't be found. But you are listed there.
WARN Glue at parent nameservers WARNING. The parent servers (I checked with ns4.nic.uk.) are not providing glue for all your nameservers. This means that they are supplying the NS records (host.example.com), but not supplying the A records (192.0.2.53), which can cause slightly slower connections, and may cause incompatibilities with some non-RFC-compliant programs. This is perfectly acceptable behavior per the RFCs. This will usually occur if your DNS servers are not in the same TLD as your domain (for example, a DNS server of "ns1.example.org" for the domain "example.com"). In this case, you can speed up the connections slightly by having NS records that are in the same TLD as your domain.
FAIL DNS servers have A records ERROR. One or more of your DNS servers are missing A records (per NS records that may be cached). As a result, they cannot be used. The problem hostnames are:
ns167.websitewelcome.com. has no A record. ns168.websitewelcome.com. has no A record.
NS FAIL NS A timeout occurred getting the NS records from your nameservers! None of your nameservers responded fast enough. They are probably down or unreachable. I can't continue since your nameservers aren't responding. If you have a Watchguard Firebox, it's due to a bug in their DNS Proxy, which must be disabled (31 Jul 2006 UPDATE: several years after being informed of this, there is a rumor that there is a fix that allows the Watchguard DNS proxy to work).
Lol the meta tags i just copy from site to site, so hence why it has some stuff before.
It isnt a template either lol i made it in photoshop same with all the sites.
The gallery opens in another window because it doesn't fit correctly into the site, plus its based on simpleviewer
Forwarded that to the hoster lewis as im not 100% what it all means.
Website looks real good Peter. Best of luck
Visually the site looks great Peter. Nice graphics Carbonangel :)
Ric,
It's saying that the nameservers were not setup correctly (they may have been down).
I believe you on the design front (not that it matters). I just recognise the design, saying that, a lot of designs look similar even when they are custom. It might just be the arse end of the car I don't know.
Congrats on the site, looks good as I said before.
Lewis
yeah i forwarded it too the hoster, he was upgrading yesturday morning so there was a slight outage, should be k now, glad you like it.
