Mistakes? Oh, we make them. If you discover mistakes of any kind in my websites I would appreciate it if you would bring them to my attention. I make simple websites but none are so simple they are mistake-proof. Please email me with your concerns and discoveries. I recently discovered a website from an educational institution that was attempting to evaluate websites. The site seemed very confusing and included several misspellings and errors in punctuation. I guess we all need proofreading. I appreciate your constructive input. I don't claim to be an expert at anything and I enjoy happily proving it every chance I get. Experience life! |
