Shaun,

Geocities are hardly the most stable of hosts, especially when it comes to performance. Don't forget you are one of many and resources are shared to a considerable degree

It seems acceptable to me and thats on a humble 56k modem....Once the site has been loaded up initially, it will be quicker on future visits!

One thing at a time ladies!!!

Once the site is FULLY operational, I will look at alternative hosts.....this all depends on the amount of hits I get (which is going very well thankyou!!! ).

Mattski,
Cheers for the offer, I may be in touch

More HOT ladies to come!

Mattski,

I know geocities are crap.....but they are free, and it was convenient for me to use them as the host. As I have said, this will change.

I think I have done well to get up what I have in the short time frame. And all this considering I knew nothing about web design before, and I am using FrontPage for the first time......without a manual!

But if I am accessing the site at home in max of 20 secs, how come you lot are taking ages?????......or is it me and 20 secs IS AGES??
