    LOL

    One of my all time favorite people for ethics - Is Michael Schumacher..

    A lot of people hate him, but you will never find anyone who is as motivated to win, and pushes it to within the 1/32" of the limits of both the rules of the F1 as well as the rules of physics. Sometimes he broke the rules - but at the end of the day he just did what he needed to win.

    That is the only one I can put on here of people I admire..

    NLID I will indeed link your website to my site :) I will also continue to keep clicking.

    I have worked out how to do the forms, but like you say understanding how it works is a different matter. I am sure I will get there, after all this time last week I wasn't even sure how to begin making my own website, now I own the domain and have hosting and I have built a mainpage which I am really proud of and DP and his friends think I am brilliant for doing and I have managed to link it between the other pages I am writing. I have to admit most of it is down to you helping me so thank you! :)

    Don't blame you I now understand why professionals charge so much it takes hours and hours to code a page, I never realised how hard it actually is but at the same time once you understand what everything does its simple if that makes sense.

    A professional charges so much because of the skill, and not the time it takes to do a job.

    For exmample to build the site, I used a lot of scraps from my code library, a bit of it is from my main SEO site, some of it from another site I have etc - the site took me about 4 hours to make - i have since put another 4 hours in just throwing the content on there - and need to spend about another 20 times that writing the content, but its too hot!

    Ah I see. I suppose once you have done one site you have the template for any other site.

    Yes and no..

    Its like working on a building site, you may have built 1000 houses and know exactly what to do, but each house will have been built slightly different, one may have 4 beds, another 3 beds - one as two flats etc etc etc

    Every website I build is unique in its requirements
