OK- website help needed....

[CD CONSTRICTORS]

I have officially thrown in the towel on attempting to get the look I want on my own. Hired someone local today to get the look I want on my website.

I "wasted" 4 hours playing with the site when I could have been doing more productive things. My lawn business has me far too busy these days to sit on the keyboard and pull my hair out (not having much left in the first place!!)

I should have a nice working theme in a week or so. I will post back when it is finished.

Some of the suggestions here will be incorporated into the new design.

Let me know how your web guy works out, Corey. With hubby's cancer and all the doctor's appointments, I've decided I just don't have the time to sit down and try to re-do my own site. I'm looking for web guy #3 I guess.

Seems as though without going broke I will need to brush up and learn some code. I had a guy working on it, but the only decent thing he did was design me a logo. I have installed a new WordPress theme that seems to be a bit nicer.... sliders, sidebars all built in.

Its a work in progress!!

I would really like to get this thumbnail this figured out without having to do all my pages over again. There has to be some sort of code from a plug in that will allow this??

Bearing in mind that I have never used Wordpress or any other web site development "tool" (other than Oracle Forms for work), I code my business web pages in straight HTML with CSS. So, I have no idea if this will work in Wordpress.
Assuming that your pictures are in a subdirectory called images under your main/index page, for a file named pic.jpg with the thumbnail picture named pic_thumb.jpg here's how you code it:
<a href="images/pic.jpg"><img src="images/pic_thumb.jpg"></a>

Thanks for the tip!!

I have gone back to working on the site myself as I found a template tat has pretty much what I want. It is still a work in progress, but I like it much better than the original template.

Hey mate, how is the website project going so far? Anything still giving you trouble? I've been putting together WP sites and morphing them to client satisfaction for a few years now so I may be of some help to ya.

The thumbnail plug in you are referring to is called "Lightbox". If you can't find it let me know.

However, several themes on Mojo Themes have that feature already built in. I've bought all my themes (with one exception) from that site. Versatile, affordable and free updates for life

Let me know if there's anything I can do to help out!

Good luck!

Some examples of sites I've put together:

http://www.devendecoste.com (portfolio site)

And I'm guessing this is what you're trying to accomplish with the images?

Mind you I don't code them but do know enough HTML/CSS to play with the custom styles of themes.
