Rhana Griffin

It's DONE!!!

After many a sleepless night, much gnashing of teeth, a few minor mental meltdowns and some serious cuss words flowing from this gentle mouth (yes I know, hard to believe but there you have it) I have finally managed to publish my first website. Yay me!

Many thanks must go to everyone who gave me a shove in the right direction when I asked for help in Reward Offered

What’s that? You are still waiting on your chocolate? Oh well… ummm… about that… see there was a flood… locusts… it wasn’t me! (falls to her knees and screams to the heavens) I SWEAR TO GOD I DIDN’T EAT IT!!!!

Ok… so I did. Do you blame me? I needed something to sustain me as I stumbled through the world of links and html code and CSS and all those other things that have letters that I don’t have the faintest bloody clue what they stand for!

So anyways… many thanks for your help – although I think I will be sporting some bruises in the middle of my back for a while. You guys shove HARD!

Sorry I haven’t been around and I just KNOW I have missed out on some wonderful stuff. Once I have revitalised mind and body I’ll be back into bubbling with a vengeance.

Now, if you will excuse me… I think I need to go and curl up in the corner for a bit and have a little exhausted cry.

P.S. In case anyone is interested….

    Very well done Rhana ! The layout is very clean. It all looks so professional, and it’s easy to navigate.

    Great work Rhana! I’m pondering whether or not I have the will to emulate your amazing feet, but it is something I will do in the near future methinks….

    I wasn’t able to see your site for some reason. I’ll try and find it another way.

    Well done Tiger!!

    Shaddy, Iif you didn’t get to Rhana’s site just hover over her link, right click + copy, then paste to the address bar and delete all the stuff before www.rhana….
    Then press the enter key ! Sorry if you already know all that, I’m just trying to help you.

    How did you do it ? Just a few details might help..I wouldn’t mind having a go, it could be my next project if I have enough years left to complete it .

  • Rhana Griffin

    Rhana Griffin in reply to Irene Burdell’s comment, 3 months ago

    Irene I went to www.freewebs.com, set everything up and then bought my domain through them. I would be more than happy to help you out along the way with any questions if you are doing the bulk of the work (heaves a sigh of relief)

    Hi Rhana the type on the home page looks black but its hard to read ….. well for me anyway….. but the whole thing looks great….. shows the images up beautifully

  • Irene  Burdell

    Irene Burdell, 3 months ago

    Thank you Rhana ,I will take a look if it is too complicated I probably won’t bother . I don’t want to get stressed out over it . It isn’t that important as this is just a hobby for me .

  • Rhana Griffin

    Rhana Griffin in reply to Paul Louis Villani’s comment, 3 months ago

    I had this really cool comment typed out for you Paul went to click Add Reply and ZAP! the power went off! Now I can’t recall what witty things I had to say =( Is it possible to have a storm without thunder and lightening? We have everything else… just no flash/bang.

  • Rhana Griffin

    Mwah Mwah Mwah… your help was invaluable darlin xxx

  • Rhana Griffin

    Rhana Griffin in reply to Juilee P Pryor’s comment, 3 months ago

    That is so bizarre Juilee… All the type is either white or shades of purple. I’ll have to have a further look into it.

  • Rhana Griffin

    Rhana Griffin in reply to Irene Burdell’s comment, 3 months ago

    =)) Its just a hobby for me too Irene… I just tend to get really focussed and involved, to the exclusion of everything else at times ;)

  • Irene  Burdell

    Irene Burdell, 3 months ago

    You probably have more patience than me. But if I get an idea into my head I would stick at it until I got it right , I am very determined . That is why I am having second thoughts I don’t think I would have the time to spend doing it . It looks like you could have put a lot of hours creating yours. It looks great .

  • Geoff  Coleman

    Geoff Coleman, 3 months ago

    Oh wow Rhana – your site rocks and what a brilliant body of work you have – so good to see it displayed so beautifully. And I have to say you passed the first and, I think, major test with this site – it loads quickly and cleanly. I can’t tell you the number of photographers’ sites I’ve visited and given up on after what seems forever waiting for their ever so classy flash displays to load. Yours is the quickest loading photographer’s site I’ve visited. Can I ask who you used for your web pack and hosting? I really need to get on to this.

  • Rhana Griffin

    Rhana Griffin in reply to Geoff Coleman’s comment, 3 months ago

    hey Geoff and thanks! I deliberately set out to make it clean and elegant, AND easy and quick to load. There is nothing worse than sites that open slowly… I’m not known for my patience =)

    I used freewebs for everything. Set up the site and then bought the domain through them too. Took about 24 hours for everything to swap over from freewebs to my domain. Very user friendly.

    VERY NICE!! In fact, a little too nice…now I’m jealous. Also, the first step towards creation is indeed to visualize with your heart. (You’re so deep) ;) Seriously though, congrats and nice job.

    Very nice Rhana. Maybe now though I thought you could have least put a link to it or are we still not embracing the computer geek tag now we’ve built a website?

    It does look cgmf to me though. Nice one

    A work of deep purple passion… Planet Rhana enters our universe to charm us all. You`ve built an amazing tribute to your romantic outlook on life which will pull on the heartstrings of anyone who enters. But I knew it would have that effect… the pleasant surprise was how easily accessible it is. No silly animations, no waiting for text to apprear (GOD do I hate that!), just a smooth, clean interface that works how you want it to. Everything I clicked happened in a nanosecond. What a wonderful promotion of your awesome talent. Kudos to the Babe!!

    Planet Rhana eh? (insert very large smile here) Purpple is such a beautiful, romantic colour wouldn’t you agree? Creates a wonderful ambience… And yes, I’m with you on the dislike of lote of doohickeys and wingdads on what should be a simple site. I shall accept your kudos with grace and tuck them deply into my pocket =)
