I don't like Bill Gates! I ujst have some pity for him. I'd be ****ed in his situation. And - the co.uk address is because Warner Bros. took the .com one so I couldn't exactly ask for it from them.

And - (too many ands) I'm not going to be spamming the boards. I just wanted to know if anyone would be interested in writing articles on flim or reviews.

Thanks for the time.

I don't usually bother telling webmaster, but since you posted on here:

I'm not sure of exact statistics, but you're losing out on huge amounts of people by having a Flash only site.

Personally I waited 3 seconds for it to open, then closed the window.

I'd say that's quite a common reaction.

How about some HTML?

Cheers,
Al.

Hey thanks for that one. It's not really a "flash only" site. Except for the introduction at the start, there is no flash involved whatsoever. At least now I know. I'll put in a special link just for you to skip the flash in the future then.

Excellent the more Irish related movie sites the better.

I am planning on launching a DVD only related site in the near future. Any1 interested as well in contributing drop me a line. Maybe we can work together Ken ?

The new sites address is/wil be dvdeireann.com/dvdeireann.net don't bother trying them they lead nowhere at the moment.

I'm doing to start some serious expansion to my site. Maybe you'd like to swap work which we could post on each other's sites? e.g DVD news and reviews and stuff? I'd be interested. What are your ideas?

Ah Draco... I wouldn't consider announcing the presence of a relevant website spamming. It being and Irish film site and this being the film/TV boards and all...

Thanks! I have no intention of spamming the boards. I was just told that they exist yesterday and that I should check out the film and tv section 'cause it's irish. So i'm irish, my site is Irish and irish people should know about it.

Thanks.

I'm just wary of comerical sites avertising on the boards - there has been hassle before.

Did you try for a .ie? I know they can be a pain in the ar$e to get, but it might be worth it.

Draco

cinemax

Kharn - thanks for that one mate! Glad to know you like it.

Draco - I'd go for a .ie domain but they tend to put a major dent in the back pocket (if you know what I mean). Plus I don't know if they do what I want them to. The domain I have will point you back to wherever you have your hosting. With a i.e domain you have to have paid hosting, or am I wrong?

Dent in the back pocket? Boil on yer bum ?

To be perfectly honest, I think the site looks very well indeed, but the '.co.uk' domain will always work against you in my opinion if you're really striving to brand it as an *IRISH* site.

Keep up the good work - the site seems to be of a decent enough standard at the moment to be able to sell advertising on it... which should help, some with those costs... (perhaps that way, also, you can shake the homepage.eircom.net URL, which honestly, doesnt look good... a credible site needs its own domain these days).

Thanks for that. The eircom thing should be gone in about 2 weeks time. As soon as I get more money in my hand I`ll get rid of the co.uk one but for now its that bit nicer than the eircom display. B@st@rds FTP service is rubbish so i`m moving as soon as i've the cash.
