Who is this? I demand to know!! :lol:
You are right, I had a (very) drunken conversation on Saturday with Bob and I agree BIG W does indeed rock. I saw you the other week when you covered for a band that shall remain nameless :wacko: Excellent stuff :headbang:

OK, I've seen about the departure of Bob, so is the full time replacement gonna be called Bill? Barry? Brian? Ben? Or are we gonna see a band name change? PIG W perhaps...
Big W - December 30, 2004 04:49 PM (GMT)
Big W are pleased to announce that our new Bass Player is Dave Halliwell (of Glass Barrel Jam Night fame). :thumb
We will not be changing our name to Dig W (or anything else) mainly cos i can't be arsed re-doing the website and logo stuff!! It does however give us an option if Woolies ever want to sue us!!!
Look forward to seeing you all in 2005.
Rock On Dudes
Ian.

Big W - January 6, 2005 05:16 PM (GMT)
If your refering to the scratchy pics, these were temporary until i got pics of Dave. They scratchy ones are actualy Bob.
If i can, the site will be sorted tonight.
Ian. :rolleyes:
webmaster - January 6, 2005 05:40 PM (GMT)
You gonna send me some more when you have them? :)
webmaster - January 6, 2005 05:53 PM (GMT)
BTW Ian, not trying to teach to to suck eggs or anything but if you want all your site to be spidered by the search engines you have to put an ALT on the logo that you click to enter your site - as you have done on the menu. Search engines can't see it as a link otherwise - I made the same mistake :lol:
Big W - January 6, 2005 08:34 PM (GMT)
I need to learn how to suck eggs! This is the first/only web site i've had a crack at. Can you tell me exactly what i need to do. If its long and boring for the forum, drop me an email.
Thanks for your help,
Ian.
P.S. Don't know what spidered is either! :whistle
webmaster - January 6, 2005 08:59 PM (GMT)
Haha, no problem. The search engines search out your website, called spidering but when it gets to a point where there are no links, it stops. If there is no alt, it doesn't see the link.
I don't know what you are using to generate your site but a bit of your HTML on the index page reads..
| CODE |
| <area href="big_w__home.htm" shape="circle" coords="152, 121, 114"> |
change it to something like..
| CODE |
| <area href="big_w__home.htm" alt="BIG W" shape="circle" coords="152, 121, 114"> |
Hopefully that should do the trick.
Big W - January 6, 2005 10:47 PM (GMT)
Means nowt to me. I'm using Publisher so its all point and click!! ;)
webmaster - January 7, 2005 06:52 AM (GMT)
Never used it :huh: you could delve into the technical side and edit the html using notepad. I would have thought there would be a way of adding it though - you have done it on the menu. When you hover over the buttons, it comes up with "HISTORY", "THE BAND", etc. you just need to apply the same thing to the link on the index page.
webmaster - January 7, 2005 10:25 AM (GMT)
Thinking about it, a simpler way would be to put something like "Click the logo to enter or click here" with a link to the next page.
Big W - January 7, 2005 11:28 AM (GMT)

Haha, I've been there a few times!! There's nothing worse than someting going wrong and not knowing how or why.
webmaster - January 7, 2005 03:33 PM (GMT)
Are those pictures of Dave posed or is he actually playing? He's looking straight at the camera in both of 'em :lol:
John - January 7, 2005 05:00 PM (GMT)
I can confirm that Dave was playing and that smile wasn't wind - I think!
Big W - January 16, 2005 11:48 AM (GMT)
When i said i use Publisher i was talking crap. I actually use Front Page.
webmaster - January 16, 2005 12:07 PM (GMT)
:lol: I used Frontpage once, I think, oooh about 6/7 years ago :unsure:
Nvu is quite a good, free editor.

Anyone coming on Saturday???
There's a chance that my dad is coming up from the Midlands to see us for the first time.
Not sure what he'll think of us, he used to be in a Black & White Minstrel (when it was still allowed; apperently you can't 'black up' now as its racist) show in the 70's!!!!!!! :blush
I'll be monitoring Waz's beer intake. :blink:
webmaster - February 3, 2005 02:10 PM (GMT)
I'll not be in on Saturday, sorry :( We're going to The Comedy Store.
Tan - February 3, 2005 02:11 PM (GMT)
Ho hum....I guess I'll be there! :D
John - February 3, 2005 02:11 PM (GMT)
Unknown medical fact that Boddingtons causes upsurge of Terrets - you might do better monitoring Lorrains intake!
