Title: aaronhanson.net now running
Post by: hans on March 28, 2006, 11:57:33 PM
Well, I finally got around to figuring out why I was having problems adding the aaronhanson.net alias to my web server. Turns out I just forgot to create a config file for it. Now it seems to be fine.
So now I have a real domain name.

Same site but fancy new name
http://aaronhanson.net/

Looks good to me. Is the photos link working for anyone else?

photos work for me...but why do they take such a long time to load up? i don't think a single picture on your site should be more than 100kb. Other then that it looks good.

BTW, I couldn't find a download link for mmmbop on your website - don't you play that any more?

I'm not sure why the site loads slow sometimes, it may be some of the stuff I'm doing in the JSPs. It's running at home on a 300mhz box (my first computer) but it still should be fast enough. I thought it was due to the virus scanner on the pc but I tweaked that to be less agressive. All of the images are PNG but they are still relatively small (maybe I'll try switching them to JPG/GIF. I've noticed it's quicker for some internet connections. I'm going to redesign it again anyways, this one was just to try a few things on the backend. I'm thinking of moving it to my faster box too and turning this one into a MAME arcade. I'm just happy I have a more professional URL now.

I think I fixed the photos page. My XML ways showed through and I had the script tag wrong. Firefox seemed to be helpful enough to realize what I intended.

That's because my server is case sensitive (smart ass).

Nice site but, on balance, 'Web Design & Programming' seems a more appropriate place for this thread.
