Site Almost finnished!?!

NO, IT DIDN'T DESERVE IT!!!

What the hell your site has to do with symbian???
I know that moderators are buying from you so they don't say a word but COME ON!!

Can't you just keep your all your FREE advertisement in one topic?????

I've never seen you helping anyone in here, all you do is just promote your business...

totally agreed with you.

And these N95 covers dont look all that. Harsh but honest. I wouldnt want to pimp my phone - if I spent ~�300 on it, I'd want it to look original rather than one with like a cheap cover put on it.

I don't care and I don't comment on the covers.

It's just all this bloody spam on a forum about symbian!!!
And the moderators are quiet...
WTF?

Listen:

1) you know very well that another topic is TOO MUCH, hence your "apologising" at the beginning.

2) I really don't have anything against you or your business.
That's why didn't say a word after your 1st, 2nd, 3rd, 4th and so on topics...
But why do hell do you have to START A NEW ONE about everything??
You can't keep everything in one? Not enough free publicity?

3) Your argument about owning a N95 - well most of the people active here own one and I don't see their IN YOUR FACE advertising of their businesses here.

4) You need feedback about your website? What are you, BillyNoMates? don't you have MSN, MySpace, FaceBook etc to ask your mates for their opinion? Is really owning a N95 relevant to having an opinion about a website?

Seriously, use one topic for all your stuff, keep your website in your signature like everyone else, and I'm sure you will have more positive emotions from people here which in a longer run will be better for your business.

Have a nice evening!😉

ok u ask so i answer! i start a new thread because i dont know aout you but i h8 threads that are allready 10 pages in and the topic says "My GPS dont work" and you got to the latest post and it's taling about "no you cant get the n95 to hangup wen u slid it closed" then u gota read 10 pages to figure out why the hell they are off topic!.... so i post a diffrent threa for a diffrent topic!🙄

yes i do need feedback aout my website:icon2:
"billyNoMates" that hurts:frown: lol,
yes i do have msn etc.. and i do ask my friens for opinions, but u know ur friends they just say yeh that looks gr8 and u dont get the truth half the time! it's good to get opinions from where u can..

i think owning a n95 and having an opinion about a website that sells stuff for a n95 is relivent yes:tongue: id understand if i was posting about testicular cancer for dogs in the "N95" section of a forum lol...

and thank you i will have a nice evening!😉 dont take everything to seriously i dont:tongue:

well its an expensive phone so i wouldnt want to pry off covers and stick on a non-oem product. its like changing the cover on your expensive lcd tv. why bother ... the two tone is just ott IMHO

To further add fuel to the fire it astonishes me that someone attempting to establish a successful e-commerce presence has such an atrocious command of written English.

Do you compose your posts using combinations of leetspeak, text phrases and poor spelling because you think that’s how it should be done on the internet and it you somehow connects with your perceived target audience, or are you missing keys from your keyboard?

Ending every other sentence with “lol” or a random emoticon simply makes you look absurdly young or stupid (or both). If you want to be taken seriously as an entrepreneur, stop insulting my intelligence and at least take the time to post using valid English.

PS. Irrespective of the actual product, your site made my eyes bleed. Do some research on complimentary and/or analogous colours and ask yourself if lime green and pastel blue should be together on a page.

Just to let you know that we use OEM fascias when we can, which is most of the time! And we do alot more than two tone! Thanks for the feedback though!

lol , Sorry that was a joke.:tongue:

Didn't realise i was getting marked on my grammar and spelling, as you correctly pointed out my keyboard is playing up as the keys are sticking, also i suppose i try to "be down with the kidz" and throw in a little lingo, mostly i am just a lazy speller thought!

I use the emotions to show that i am not having a rant or slating somebody when it may seem that way from the text.

Thanks for the feedback on the website though, i will take note!

Steven🙄

Ive not locked it because I didnt think it needed it. Same for the other mods I daresay.

Its not like its usual 'look at our website with nothing specific in it' type post.

I havent recieved any reports of these, so if anyone feels its wrong, then report it, dont rant in the forums.

Personally I think its an interesting venture with something vastly different, and someone asking for advice, which is what forums are for. IMO its more advice than pressing for sales.

So I'll ask stiofansisland to keep to one thread, preferably this one from now on.

Doesn't bother me. It's interesting...

People yelling at the guy for grammatical errors and use of emoticons bothers me much more. Behave will you. *sigh*

Even though the covers are not my taste ( well maybe the metallic black ) or what I would consider spending on a phone. I have been reading the threads and cannot see why this outburst at the poor man, What has he done apart from concieving an idea and trying to follow it through.
He started a thread and many showed interest, now surely that is what a forum is for, if he was starting threads and no one was replying then yes critism would be valid, seems to me just like sour grapes he is hurting no one.
Best of luck to you Steven and don't let the grumpy minority put you down

[rant]

Give the guy a break..... I've seen many more threads (GPS releated that piss me off 1000x more than this does).

And yes it is Symbian related,... N95 covers = N95 = Symbian.
He wants feedback for his site. If it was spam, he wouldn't be back here replying to your remarks.
It's doing no harm. If you ain't interested, then don't read it.

P.S. sicjoke > This is a forum, not a bloody exam room. It's not a professional advert. Its a casual post asking for advice.

Jeez!! Yes, I know that's not in the English dictionary

[/end rant]

Its good to see websites posted on forums, that I wouldn't have known existed otherwise.

sicjoke's comment about colour is valid. The green doesn't work with the blue. Try the green on a black or very dark grey background. Try using a tool such as Adobe Kuler - http://kuler.adobe.com/

Thanx for the comments "fiddles" and "Nigma" it's good to now some people like reading my posts:redface:

It dosent bother me that much, i know some people like to have a rant every now and again🙄

i lie that site you posted "Nigma" i appriciate it! Choosing the colour's obviously isnt my strong point! i'll take not of the coloures and get them changed soon!..

what you think of the General layout etc.. would u mak any changes?

Thanx <-(Ha i know it's not a "proper" word either but the "k" stick's on my keyboard:frown😊

Agreed, this is a forum, we are not communicating via IM or SMS. You have all the time in the world and can use as many characters as you need to construct the post using real English before hitting the submit button.

Using the internet is not an en excuse for acting dumb, especially someone who is attempting to promote business using it.

Please do not interpret this as a pre-meditated attack on Stiofansisland and neither am I marking anyone for grammar or composition. I really believe this to be valid feedback in Stiofansisland's case. He is clearly driven to succeed with what he is doing, however it is my opinion that if he presented his site using forums a little more professionally and stopped communicating like a 13 year old he may be taken more seriously.

Continuing the feedback about the actual site for Stiofansisland...

• I am sure you are aware, but you have missing images on the front page.
• Spelling and grammar do count in this context. Your site has spelling errors. It looks unprofessional. Press F7 before you upload your content.
• Your Gallery doesn�t really do the product justice. Many of the photographs are blurred or at taken at strange angles. The backgrounds are sketchy on most, make yourself an infinity curve. I understand why you might have included the motorbikes and car, but it's a bit misleading.
• I may have overlooked it, but I was unable to find any information regarding payment methods on the site. It looks like the site will force me to register for an account before I find out that the payment method may not suite me.
• Consider accessibility. Have a look at http://www.lemurzone.com/notes/access5k.htm. Your site is not currently accessible to everyone.

Thanks for the feedback, it's a little more constructive this time😉

Actually i didn't now the images were missing from the front page, as it's written in .php and when i viewed the page it just took the pictures locally of my hard disk and displayed them correctly! So many thanks for that!

As for the gallery, i am actually working on that! im building a flash gallery which loads a lot quicker and looks better, alos im waiting for a new digital camera to get better photo's, i appreciate the feedback though!

Good point about the payment method again, see this is what i was after in the first place!

I appreciate your help "sicjoke" thank you!

Hi stiofansisland

It really is good to see you typing in english, sorry but its a pet hate of mine; I have teenage kids who send me texts that I have to get translated by the younger kids in the office!

Seriously though, I have read all your posts regarding the covers and have been slightly interested but kept getting a mental image of a "Hoodie" with a can of Halfords Cellulose :tongue:

I agree with Sicjokes suggestions, its all in the details.

Best of look with the venture, I have no problem with your posts (now I can understand them 😉)

Ok i will try and make my posts a little more legible! I TXT a lot so i guess i just get into the habit of it!

I must assure you now that i have never owned a "Hoodie" and iv never used a spray can for any job!

here is a photo of me:

and a photo of what i do usually!(Custom spray jobs!)

Hope this helps to build a better image of me! Probably not though with a pink car in the booth🙄

Hello again,

thought id come here for some advice again...

Ok just wondering if it's a good idea to sell off my b grade stock? it goes against my principles as i don't like to sell anything thats not 100% however if i list it as b grade and explain any defects would that be ok or would it look bad on my part?

for example i have a few front fascias that have 1 small crack on them but once fitted you would never know as it's held in place! also ones that have small imperfections.

Should i list them on our site or just offer them on forums?

Opinions please.......

I can't see any reason why you shouldn't sell them on your site, as long as you are very explicit with the imperfection details (maybe a photo too).

Most companies will sell B grade stock at a discount (Maplins,Ebuyer etc) which has the bonus effect of repeat trade once the end user sees the quality of the product.

Go for it matey, you have nothing to loose and everything to gain and I admire your initiative; its very difficult to get objective market research these days and I honestly think (Others might disagree) that this forum is an ideal place for it 😊

So if others would offer suggestions/constructive criticism, together we might be able to help create the next Branson/Banatyne/Paphitis

Come on guys, Lets have our own "Dragons Den"

Best of luck
Jay

/me awaits possible public stoning/flogging/banning

I dont see any problem with that, obviously as long as its clear whats wrong.

yeh it would be very clear!!..

ok no protests yet saying no it's a bad idea! i will stick a few up and see how they get on!..

once again thanks for the feedback guy's!

😊

I haven't seen stiofansisland on here for ages. He's meant to be making me a complete case for my N95 in two different flip paints. He hasn't replied to emails via his site or PMs through AAS.

Anyone know what's happened to him?

Nope, bit odd that. Especially emails...

Oh BTW I haven't given him any money so don't think for a minute he's run off with anything :tongue:

I wonder if he's extremely busy or something.
