although i suspect most people are on high speed connections by now, i thought i would let ya know for dial up its a black screen for almost 3 minutes before it shows up. i suspect thats the dog graphics loading.
just some thing for you to keep in mind as many books say to try to avoid long load times.

summer is here, plant a tree. if you don't have space or time to plant one sponsor some one else to plant one for you. a tree is an investment in our planet, help it out.

Nice!
Just wanted to let you know I checked it out and agree with the guys, very nice! I also like the way you've integrated Flickr. A little back-end info on Millerwelds.com, the project idea gallery and the motorsports gallery are both powered by Flickr.

If anyone would like to visit Miller's Flickr page, here's the address:
http://www.flickr.com/photos/millerwelds
We also have a Miller Welding group on Facebook...
There are some Miller welding videos also available on YouTube.

Sorry about the slow load times, I thought my parents were the only ones still on dial-up
They don't have cable yet either
I haven't gotten much into the social networking sites yet, I'll have to check that out. I know my wife is on facebook, I'll look up the miller group. I actually found miller's flickr account on accident. I was looking for pics of something, and the found the album. Much easier to go through all the pics there than through the parent site!
It was a lot cheaper for me, from a web design standpoint, to have the shopping and the gallery handled by other sites. Hopefully I can make some money and get bigger and badder, we will see!
Thanks again for all the positive feedback!

no problem for me i'm used to it. no cable option or other high speed except satilite link out here. the $$ is not worth the speed for me yet.
just wanted you to be aware of the lag time as many warn against it when making a site, although that could well be old info as well as most are up to speed now.
just a FWIW thing.

A guy I work with has dial up and he checked it out last night. He basically said he's used to the load times too. For the style I was going for, I think it was pretty much unavoidable. But it's not too nuts.
I joined the facebook miller welding group..
Thanks again to everyone for checking my site out!

Very nice website, very good job explaining your work and experience. Congradulations on your dog and you are so right, shelters are full of wonderful dogs and cats waiting for the needle. No excuse in it. I have had a very similar experience and have named my winery "Blind Dog Winery" after a yellow Lab who lost his eyes to a shotgun blast and was destined to be put down because his owners didn't want him anymore so I took him. Best dog I've ever had-he was truly incredible. Not a day goes by I don't miss him. Keep up the great work brother.

Thank you!
Dogs are amazingly resilient!
Thanks for the comments on my "about" pages. I put some thought into those. I wanted them to be readable(short), and to the point, and I think they turned out as good as I could have hoped for.
I'm hoping to set up a blog sometime soon, and a link page.
