They are all good, but I like this one best!

How about the letters outlined in Orange and shadowed in blue, or outlined in blue shadowed in orange? Or outlined in blue with light orange inside?

And if you still have more time, how about coming and finishing my layout for me?!

Did some rethinking on this and redid the masthead and firmed up the home page.

The good news is, it's tighter and I think improved. It also gives me an excellent masthead template, including buttons to use from page to page. The buttons are also vastly improved.

The bad news, I have to relink all the pages via the top link of buttons and I am too lazy at this moment in time.

Only the home page is up now, with no active links in the button bar at the top, but I like it much better both from a visual and workability standpoint.

The text links at the bottom of the page work however, and clicking on any of these shows the difference in design from the old pages to the new page.

frank i really like that one.. I think thats the best yet!

[Frank53]

Thanks zeke - I think it will also be much more friendly from a design standpoint as the masthead is now a single graphic and keeps the form tight.

As an aside, I have had the site up for a couple of days and I was looking at the webstats - 27,000 hits in only a couple of days.

[Anonymous]

wow thats alot of hits. Good job. I like the way it is. Its appealing but not overpowering. Definatly easy on the eyes.

 

 

 

Give yourself a pat of the back!

   I think the whole page looks great. You did a good job on that.

   You did a great job on your layout too. Talent. 

[Frank53]

One sub page is now up as well. Clicking on "The Trains" button at the top or the text link at the bottom takes you to the first complete sub-page. Off this page, there are buttons to the left side which will eventually go to individual pages divided into categories - locos, diesels, freight cars,etc. These aren't up yet, and I have a lot of work to do to figure out how I am going to photograph these - probably a diorama so they all have the same lighting, relative size, etc.

really nice frank.....wow you have some gorgeous stuff there.....

[anjdevil2]

Very nice, Frank.  Love the layout (of the website) and the quickee info on each page. Nicely done!

[ezmike]

Frank,

It looks great. It will be added to my favorites as soon as I get home. Look forward to what you have in store for the links.

But now you have to figure out how to divide your time between the layout and the website.

Less is more...my vote.

But the one you have on your site now is very nice too.

[CSXect]
