The site is up

[Art Fawcett]

Thanks for pushing me gent's to get this up & running. I don't know why but I have been struggling with this and shouldn't be. The first "edition" of my website is there for your suggestions. Please know that this is just the beginning of the refining process

WOW!!

It all seems to be true.

I start saving pennies today... I have my eye on a Sportaire and a Cheyenne.

Sweet work, Art.

ART GREAT NEW HATS

Art,


The site looks good...the limited editions look great

:cheers1:

 

[Marc Chevalier]

Art, I love what you're doing and why you're doing it. You are an inspiration. And I'll never forget those bricklaying/stonemasonry stories!


One heads-up: the link to your "Wall Street" fedora leads instead to the "Cheyenne."

 

[Art Fawcett]

Thanks Guys, please remember this is rudimentary..first edition of the site. I no sooner published it and I thought of other stuff needed.
Thanks Mark, I'll fix it now.

Some problems with Safari on a Mac it seems. The intro plays, then changes to a window with 'Click here for details and ordering' as the title bar, with

"
Thank you for stopping by Vintage Silhouettes.



We have been fortunate to have met so many people along our adventure in Vintage Clothing and Thank every one of our customers. It is now time for us to fade away into retirement and enjoy the time we have building our new Adventure in Oregon as ranchers and as custom hat makers. This site will be closed until the fall when we will reopen as

Vintage Silhouettes Custom Crafted Hats

We hope you will take the time to stop in later this year and get re connected with us.

You can still contact us at stone@vintagesilhouettes.com

Thank you



Art"

I cant click on the email or unfortunately see you excellent merchandise. Is this right or am I missing something?

Cheers

KC

KC,
As a fellow Safari user, though I just checked out Art's site here at work on IE, but... did you try turning off your pop-up blocker? This seems to work to access email, which usually opens an additional window. Sometimes when I am on sites and I click and click on links and nothing happens, I remember that I need to turn off the pop-up blocker, then all is well.

I don't know if this is the issue, but I thought it might help.

Some sites, like the Gap and Banana Republic (who needs them anyway?) do not support Safari.

Great site, Art.
The hats look really nice. They truly look like some vintage hats I have seen. Really amazing stuff.

 

[Feraud]

Best of luck with the new website. It would be a privilege to direct my hat business your way.

 

[jamespowers]

Hmmm.... That Boubon Street looks a lot like what I want in a Palomino. Ok, where's the Palomino?

 

[Mycroft]

Great site, clear, conscice, complete, and quick to load. I was thinking you might add these things:
-a how to care for hat page
-glossary of hat terms and processes
-how hats are made page
-your about us letter as an opener to all the costumers
-a shipping page on how to ship a hat to you
-links page
-prices on the hats? (I wasn't sure how you handled costumers)
-hat sizing guide
Yea, I think that is it for ideas.

Something wrong with site

Art, I get an error page after the intro page. Anyone else get this?

Great start on the site. OUTSTANDING Hats

 

[Matt Deckard]

Looks good to me... very mid to late 40's in my opinion... and it has your distinctive ribbon flare.

 

[tonyb]

I use a Mac and Safari (although this machine also has Explorer) and I had no trouble whatsoever accessing your site, Art. The hats look great, by the way.

Looks great! One comment- when I click on an item to view it, it doesn't open in a new window, but you instruct people to close the window to retrun to the previous view. Doing so closes the site.

 

[Lauren]

Looks great! I really like the "Wall Street" model.

 

[SHARPETOYS]

What a hatter

Wow! Look at those bows. Way to go Art!!

 

[Kaleponi Craig]

Finally got in. For some reason, I kept getting an error page. Nice site, Art, and what gorgeous hats...KC:cheers1:

Safari

Kent Canary, clear your cache and try again. It's at your end, I'm afraid. Safari is loading the old site from cache.

Great hats, Mr. Fawcett. GREAT hats.

 

[Art Fawcett]

thank you everyone for the input. I'm gonna sound "out of it here", but what is Safari? an OS of sort?
I see I have some bugs to take car of and Thanks for the input Mycroft, thats what I need. I don't know how quickly I will be able to apply them but they don't sound like too much work. I haven't given Costumers much thought since the last film, (Lonely Hearts not out yet) but I don't think they will be a large part of my business. I think the folks right here will keep me busy enough!!
