Ross, good start!  You might want to re-check the spelling on the opening page's paragraph however, lots of typos.  "Steam" for example is spelled wrong  

Congrats though on giving it a try, the hardest part is starting one, then the next hardest is keeping up with changes.

cheers,
Roger

That's a good start, Ross, but you really aught to read what you've typed before you click the upload button. I can see about a dozen errors in the Welcome paragraph alone. OK, nobody expects you to be word perfect (I'm not), but you should, at least, get the punctuation right. It makes it so much easier to read. Remember, you know what you were thinking when you typed it - your readers don't.

As the others have said it is a good start, please try to sort out the spelling mistakes though.

I like the start you have made with your new site.

Don't be put off when mistakes are found - we run a major Mamod/Wilesco site and pretty much always make mistakes when writing up new products. Check it twice and upload it once and you'll be fine!

We all want to enjoy your developing site and so may I suggest that your photos are in sharp focus and show plenty of detail.

One tip I recommend is that you write up in Microsoft Word and copy into your web page knowing any spelling mistakes have been found - generally.

Remember also to use a capital "I" when it is used in isolation.

The trouble with putting your head above the parapet is that people will always take a pot shot! It's human nature and it can be turned to your advantage as hopefully you have found in these posts.

Congratulations on your site.

Trevor.

Now with different pages for my engines I will upload the pictures after STWWW. I will also do a current restoration page I think all the spelling has just about gone.


thanks for your help!
