Ok... so it only took way longer than I thought and it is not totally done yet as my collection pages are not finished but the store and wish lists pages are up.

I will be posting my wish list asap. BUT I am in need of yours!

Please send me your wish lists and for sale lists and lets see if this thing can work in the TMNT community.

Feedback is welcome! (although I am not changing the backgrounds at this point, to damn much work)

hey, I just checked out your site, I think you did a great job.
I actually like the backgrounds, it reminds me of the art that Playmates used for the old line. I was just wondering if you plan to add pics of the items for sale, as Im sure that buyers would want to know the exact condition of the items they're buying.

Hmm. Well I hope that the images of the items in my store section are working for you. But as far as pics of other peoples items thats up to them to send to me. I will put them up if they do.

Dude, your site is awesome. I think that if people are smart enough to take advantage of this it could really fill a niche in the collector's community.

I am definitely going to take advantage of this in the near future, I've just started going through my collection (95% of it is in boxes, sadly) and will be looking to trade/sell a bunch of my doubles and triples. (You know your collection is getting out of hand when you've got triples, lol.)

So anywho - could be a while but when I get the time I'll send my lists.

Nice job on the site! The backgrounds and the navigation are unique and well done.

Thanks guys! It was a lot of work but I like how it turned out.

Now the only part I need help with is getting it out into the community. Also (as I am not a web guy per say) can anyone suggest the best way to put those tag things in there so non board people can find it on Google?

Cool. It reminds of the period around circa 1995-2005, when the homepage was more popular than the blog on the Internet.

I just went to your site again, and the pics in your store still arent working for me. at first I thought it was my browser, so I switched it but the pics still wouldnt work. is anyone else having that problem ?

I see the images both here at work, and back home.

I've got no trouble with the images.

I'm still having trouble with some placement of page elements. Is everything navigation wise working for everyone?

J1982 - Ya I really wanted to put a design feel into it and make it an experience rather than just content. Because since the site is more or less a service and can't really offer "content" that TMNT fans don't already know (other than a cool section on my collection or even other peoples collection pages if they want designed as such coming soon) I thought then that it should provide a cool environment for people to come back to.

PS I know how hard it is to put together ones wish list as I am still working on mine to put up but let me know anytime you have stuff you want to sell or stuff you want then I can post it up. Remember this is all between you and your buyers I ask nothing to put this up or if you sell stuff!

the pics show up only when I use Firefox, but not any other browser, and I tried 3 different ones. but everything is working other than that.

I think that could have something to do with the way I designed the pages. I have a friend near where I live who might be able to help but that sucks because putting together all those damn pics with the numbers. Do you have problems with the pics in all the sections? such as the vehicles compared to the figures?

when I use Firefox the pics show up on every page, but when I use the other browsers, only the pic on the collection page shows up, no other pics do.

WOW wait you mean that the backgrounds don't show up on any of the pages? This is a problem... I know why if what your saying is that the backgrounds are not showing up and I don't want to have to fix it... but I will have to.

Also how do I make this signature banner to be a link?

sorry, I didn't mean to confuse you. the backgrounds always show up no matter which browser I use. but the pics that you click on don't show unless I use Firefox. but no matter what, the backgrounds are always showing.

as for making your signature banner a link, you'll have to ask someone with more experience cause Im still learning how to use things around here :D

And that is why you shouldn't use ANYTHING other than Firefox. :D;) Viva la zorro de fuego!

So now that this is up what do people think? Do you think you will use it? I have to get it more out there so other non forum people can find it to. I'll post my wanted list asap!

Sorry another technical question. Each of the navigations are supposed to move not just change from one image to the rollover. Is everyone seeing this? I noticed on another computer they were not animating. Such as the Collection handle animates.
