FINALLY a NEW WEBSITE for MINI V

[Miniv]

For several years we had a very nice website built and maintained by a professional who is a horse person, but NOT a mini person. After awhile she became very slow about making changes for us........especially our SALES page. We requested access to that page and she refused. The final straw was when she allowed our domain to lapse! AAAKKK.

So, here we are........We are in a new home and have a NEW WEBSITE that Larry is building by himself. It is a project IN PROGRESS..........but it is OURS.

A lot is already up and running, please visit and if you have any advice or input, we welcome it!

Looks good so far! A couple of things from my computer that I see. I keep having to scroll over because the whole page does not fit in my browser window. Also the first page. Love the pics of the horses in the backgound...but the lettering blends too much in with the blazes and white parts of the picture and makes it difficult to read. Enjoyed all the pics.

Looks good Maryann. Glad to see you have a new site up and running.

Thanks Bill...... Congratulations on Toulouse's high point awards, AND your boy's son's awards! Larry and I appreciate knowing your successes.......don't EVER doubt that! Do you have a website? We would love to have us link up, if you do.

KARI......Thank you! Larry appreciates that. (He's getting even more gray hairs doing this. LOL!) Would also like to do a link if you are interested.......

 

[CrescentMinis]

Looking great! And I loved reading the story of your Gabriel.

 

[Taylor Jo]

Maryann great web site. I really enjoyed each and every web page, especially the story about Gabriel. TJ

 

[Getitia]

Larry is so much braver then me in tackling designing his own website

: What a Great job he has done and I love the Gabriel story

 

[jleonard]

Looks great! I've always been a "stalker" of your site, and was disapointed to see that it was down for a while. It's wonderful to see that it is back up and better than ever!

 

[SaddleTrail]

Great site and wonderful pictures! I love working on websites I just never know what to say!!

Good luck and keep up the good job!

 

[Miniequine]

Very Nice Web Site

Beautiful horses!

(Munchkin is precious) & I'm totally jealous...

I wish I could do my own web site. Mona does mine,

she does a great job, I would just like to be able to mess with it

when ever I get the notion to.

Miniequine, If you have MONA, you have no problems......She is one of the two TOP Web Designers.

I'm just thrilled that Larry plowed in and learned to do this. To be honest, he learned how to do it on the job, doing the Observatory website.....LOL! .......(Just don't tell the "boss"!)

You can see the Astronomy website at: http://www.astronomyshop.org/

I appreciate all the positive comments.......And if anyone sees any typos -- please let me know!

 

[lilmiraclesfarm]

May I ask what type or program he is useing. I'd be willing to put something together for you, free of charge and just hand you over all the codeing. But only in return would I ask for the credit and to be able to place it on my own website. I know your husband is working hard and I don't want to take that pride away. But I know it can be frustrateing at the same time. So just going to leave the offer in the air for you. I'm always looking to add more experience to my own site and under my belt for the future.

He's doing a fine job I will give him that )

 

[Miniv]

Thank you! I'll have Larry see this..........As he is still learning he will appreciate your input. He has been using SeaMonkey.

Ditto! You might also explain some of the inside jokes like your "2007 triplets" for sale...it felt like I was missing something when reading that. Nice site, Larry!

[BlueStar]

ROFL!!!!

(Larry saw the comment about the brower problem by Sterling and is working on it.)

Leia, Our "Triplets" - the three girls are only the beginning! We also have two years of Red and White Pintos! AAAKKK. They would all be a Team Drivers' DREAM! (In my opinion.) Larry still has to post our pinto kids, though........

And thanks.....

 

[Jill]

It looks awesome!!!

And, I sure like the looks of Ice Cream

 

[anita]

Larry did a great job! Looks fantastic

Larry and Maryann have been breeding and showing Miniature Horses since 1990. Prior to that time we had little horse experience at all. We fell in love with Miniature Horses at the Oregon State Fair and spent a year researching the little equines prior to buying our first one. Through the network of Miniature Horse breeders we met over the years we learned much about horses and miniatures in particular. We realize, however, there is so much more to learn and we avidly seek out new people and reading materials to educate us further.

I thought it was a wonderful and honest web site. A lot of times the pictures seem to be nothing like the horse when you go to look in the flesh, so making that clear to the viewer is a "fresh" idea..

The only thing that didn't seem correct was the above paragraph, where you place your proper names, when all the rest I believe is "WE" you introduced yourself at the top of the page.

I could be wrong though as I am not a grammar or writing expert.
