Argh. The guy at the restaurant attached my hotel is setting up a website, almost certainly prompted by the recently-launched by the hotel itself.
The hotel's website, however, was set up by an American who knew what she was doing.
Sonny does not. So he asked me for help. After arguing with his internet connection and explaining that he couldn't edit his website from the public page, we started to get into it.
I know nowt about website design and I'm not flash on computers, but I'm a fucking wizard compared to this poor sod. I did what I could, but if anyone's ever setting up a website, don't use sitew.com and certainly don't try to edit your site on a tiny netbook. The screen resolution was insufficient, so I couldn't access most of the tools to upload photos, edit text, or do anything, really. The interface was one of the fiddliest I've ever encountered, worse even than the monstrosities provided by government departments, and even simple changes such as adding a link to home failed as it changed the entire layout and format of the site.
I wasn't too sure about a dark green background with red and white lettering myself, but I had enough to do just to correct the spelling and rAndom Capitalisations and oddspacings, as well as removing the more blatant overlaps of what little content there was on the screen. I told him to have a think about what he wanted it to look like and what he wanted on there, and to edit it at a proper computer. I'm not providing a link.
And I didn't even get a free coffee out of it
