I designed it as my online portfolio and it took me a whole weekend to put it together. I'm a 100% noob when it comes to this.

I have a few tweaks that I want to do, like link my audio files like I have my video files linked, but overall, I'm pretty pleased with it.

I do have a quick question, though: using SiteSpinner, how do I add titles to the web page for each page. For instance, when you're on my homepage, it says "index" at the top. How can I change that to whatever I want?

Great work.

You have seemed to have managed changing the titles of your other pages, although I guess you have named those pages.

Double click a blank area of your work page. That will bring up the Page Editor. There is a tab there called “Title, Meta Tags”. The first input is “Title”. Simply type in what you want there.

Thanks!

I think the titles are being named the same thing as the file names of the individual pages, but it seems pretty simple to change. Thanks for the tip!

Does the site load slowly for anyone? I've tried it on a few computers, and on a few it has loaded slowly. The "radio" page opens the slowest, but I think that's because of the embedded audio files (which I'm going to change and just link them).

It might be loading slowly because each page is individual with the copy saved as part of the image (so I can safely use Comic Sans font in case a browser out there doesn't support it).

Also, if you looked/listened to any of the audio/video files, did they play correctly?

Comic Sans MS is a web-safe font so you can safely use that in normal text -- no need to make image files.

It's a good idea to avoid having audio or video files downloading automatically, as that will greatly slow down the page load time.
