    In short, DON'T! Email notices are to ONLY alert you of a reply to your private message or your ad on this site. Replying to the email just wastes your time as it goes NOWHERE, and probably pisses off the person you thought you replied to when they think you just ignored them. So instead of complaining to me about your messages not being replied to from this site via email, please READ that email notice that plainly states what you need to do in order to reply to who you are trying to converse with.

    Yeah, I know. They are a pain in the butt. But they pay the bills to keep my server running. Just a fact of life, I am afraid.

    Want to get rid of them? Simple. Just become a Contributor level member or above and they will be gone. -> Please click HERE."

    Is that too much for me to ask of you to keep this site running? Well, sorry about that. I too wish I could get everything for free. But alas.....

    =====================


    Google Adsense ad revenue for December, 2025 was just $30 over the cost of the lease for the server running this site. So, in effect, the money providing the incentive for me to continue running this site is coming SOLELY from the paid memberships and sponsorships here. Which honestly ain't much....

My site is still a work in progress... but arent most sites.

I hope by spring of next year I will have all my breeders listed complete with data.

Check it out... we even have a photo gallery if your interested in prints for your herp room.... all taken by me.

www.ridgetopreptiles.com

questions and comments are welcomed and encouraged... as I am always trying to improve the site.

What do you think... what should I look at changing?

thanks for your time.
 
Stephanie,

Got the text area changed... what do you think.

Got all the HTML validation errors fixed that were not 'link' related. I cant do anything with those or it will break the links to USArk.
 
A billion times easier to read! ;)

The remaining validation errors are from an illegal character (& should be &) in the links. One of the problems with linking to older versions of vB (the new version has a much better url system) and most other forums. You're right though, nothing you can do about it!
 
I may be a little slow on getting the fixes done (with a real job and all the critters)... but I do consider all input that is given.

Got any other idea on how to make it better?
 
Ok.... Im adding a new wrinkle to my website. I dont have any links to it yet from the website.... but you get a sneaky peak with a direct link. Tell me what you think.

My current goal is to get a post a day (I hope) and I currently have posts scheduled to appear for the next two days.
 
wooooo hoooooo

:?party:


It's only taken me 3 hours to figure out and manipulate the custom coding... but I did it

I now have my blog tied into the home page on my site via a RSS feed.

I even went and did just a few slight layout changes. Hope ya'll enjoy the new look.
 
The gallery has been updated and expanded at www.ridgetopreptiles.com

We now offer 5 different print sizes and FREE SHIPPING from the lab to your door. We are also offering more than just herp photography. I have included some nature photography into the mix as well.

Hope you enjoy the new gallery :thumbsup:
 
Thank you Laura.... I still have alot of images to get coded into the gallery... but Im getting closer.
 
I agree - love the new look. Easy to read, the date tabs are perfect, very professional in appearance. Good job, Kevin :)
 
RidgeTop Reptiles has under gone a major redesign. It has been redesigned from the ground up. The new version is more user friendly and even has a search feature. We have some new sections to the site and I have a couple more instore.

Enjoy the new look and new layout. :thumbsup:

What... no opinions on the new look and layout.

I've made a few changes already due to some opinions from another site.
 
I just checked it out and it looks 10 times better. I like the new layout. Much more pro looking. I dig the Blog feature too. Good job!
 
I had been toying with an idea and I decided... what the heck. I jumped off the deep end and I hope I can swim.

I am now going to offer e-Books at RidgeTop Reptiles. These books will be FREE of charge to download and share with your friends. I am writing them when I get some free time.

I have completed the first and it is now available on our site. Our first is about Leopard Geckos and is 9 pages long. I have also included 5 images that I took in the book.

Check it out at....
