Hey guys, if you can scroll down on my site here please: My Webpage
Just above the footer, I used to have an Angie's list badge there, you will see a link with the text "Read unbiased great consumer reviews....." which leads visitors directly to Angie's list site. Since one has to be an Angie's list member to be able to see my reviews this won't work so what I am thinking of is having that same link open up 4 screenshots of my 4 AL reviews, is this possible or what's the simplest way I can do this please?

I don't find the link you mention on the page you link to.

If I understand you right, create another HTML page with the screen shots and link to that. Or, better I think, put the reviews on that page in plain text, maybe accompanied by a link to the real thing for those who can access that site.

The link is at the bottom of the HOME page in light blue color, please see screenshot here:

My Webpage

I will look for instructions for this "create another HTML page with the screen shots" [thanks].

This however I am not understanding? "Or, better I think, put the reviews on that page in plain text", can you explain in any other way please?

Ah, the link is an image. That's why I didn't find ut with the Find tool (searched for "Consumer"). You may want to know that the image doesn't display in all browsers. Must be something wrong there.

You create another page the same way you created this one. Save it, call it something, upload it, link to it.

Yes, the link is an image [badge] which I will fix soon, sorry for not mentioning that. Sorry I am not understanding what you mean regarding the screenshot itself, please see link below and let me go through this in slo-mo? How do as you say create another page with the screenshot itself?

How did you create the page you have now?

You have several screen caps like that you want to show, right? So just create a page something like this. You can use the classes to style things as you want.

[html]<!DOCTYPE HTML PUBLIC "-//W3C//DTD HTML 4.01//EN"
"http://www.w3.org/TR/html4/strict.dtd">

<html>

<head>
<title>My reviews</title>
</head>


<body>

<h1>My reviews</h1>

<div class="review">
<h2>Review 1</h2>
<img src="review1.jpg" width="" height="" alt="">
</div>

<div class="review">
<h2>Review 2</h2>
<img src="review2.jpg" width="" height="" alt="">
</div>

<div class="review">
<h2>Review 3</h2>
<img src="review3.jpg" width="" height="" alt="">
</div>

</html>
</html>[/code]

But as said, It would be better with real text instead of screen caps.

Alright so something like this with your code:

file:///C:/Users/user/Desktop/test.html

but this I am not understanding "But as said, It would be better with real text instead of screen caps."? If you mean that I should have testimonials on the site, reason why I didn't opt for that is the reviews can be doctored by myself so it's never trustworthy whereas with Angie's list, it has to be 100% legit.

It isn't hard to doctor an image either.

That file you link to is on your hard drive. I can't see it.

Ok, got the AL badge fixed, now back to the reviews issue, this is a screenshot of your code?

Review page

So I guess my next issue would be how to load the screenshots in full view?

I don't even understand what you mean. If it's there in the image it can be seen even if you position something on top of it. It's just a matter of viewing the image directly. What's the problem with painting over it? You do it on a copy, of course.
