So I finally bit the bullet and did something about my web presence... I hope to do review style updates that are small but good and I think I settled on this template.
I also was screwing around with my selling software here at shop . thegoateater.com so I could get a lot of stuff off my hands w/o eBay LOL :D
I also put up my gallery site at http://ln2oc.com/ and fiddled around with the software and tested it out as you can see from vacation photos and movie art...
I want your input people!!! give it to me and be honest (I already know about the shop. site being odd I just wanted to experiment and try it :up:)

Nice stuff there Goat Eater.
I'd say for a first time its a very good start. As for your web shop, you know what you can do? You can register on ebay and get selling tools that allow you to showcase your ebay items on your website as if they were in your inventory so that you don't have to list your shop items separate from your ebay items; Amazon has the same thing.
I've seen it used here and there.

yeah? I do have an eBay store...cool! I guess it may be in the seller tools section... I will definitely explorer that now! ty
yeah I tried for the clean and straightforward as I tend to be a bit messy, maybe rather jumbled I guess. so anything I can do to cure that!

I am havign problems at togo.ebay.com making a widget for the blog - so instead I called and was on the phone 45 minutes trying to get a workaround... if it is broken why do they still have it up .... so instead I put shop . thegoateater.com as a http forward to my eBay store and just left it at that... eBay support sucks big time, they can improve a lot if they L I S T E N :( ... oh yeah I took the tiem to edit first post and break the linkage on my shop. site as it is a redirect now to eBay store (not wanting to break any rules now)... so how does ln2oc.com look for a gallery site... decent enough ?
Not trying to sound like a punk but why do some people can hyperlink in their sigs without getting it removed and I was asked to remove any external references other than xs from my sig?

I think you can have a link to personal website if you are an XS supporter, which you are judging by your red title.
EDIT: And Goat Eater, shouldn't you be benching for XS team glory instead of making websites? just joking :D
EDIT2: w00t 2000th post!
