    The website is up!

    I created a little webpage to help get support (and funding) for my short film, "Scotch Needs a Drink."

    I have about half the funding I need but I'm still $4000 short. Hopefully this will help interest some investors. And hey, if you want to throw in a little bit for the cause, there's a Paypal button on the site. Not that I'm fishing...

    Seriously, I just wanna know what y'all think!

    He's in the biz, but he's never acted before. He created the Scotch character though, and he does it so bloody well, I had to cast him! He insists he wouldn't mind me casting someone else, but it's his character and I can't imagine anyone else getting it the way he does. With a little direction, he's been great in rehearsals.

    Your pages have no frames setup so everything appears to be extremely wide and difficult to read. PM me and I'll fix it for you.

    I don't have any problems viewing anything....it looks really good. I like it. Do you guys plan to put updates on that site as you get closer to production and as it gets played at any festivals??

    I was wondering that myself. Maybe about the "USA Number One" thread?? (or whatever it was called)

    Anyways, I'm happy for you about this website. I genuinely want this to work out for you, and I know it will. I'll check back on the site when I get paid on friday.

    And, you know, I'm not sure about your choice of actresses. They all make me think of strippers.

    Oh, wait.., um,... nevermind. A lot of things make me think of strippers.

    All your text is running right up to the sides. I've checked it on IE 6 and Firefox 2.0. Same results.

    Essentaily what DW is on about is that you have no 'white space' or rather 'black space' on the web page. You see if you have a rather large monitor, or a rather high resolution, or both, then you have a few very long sentances. If you used a frame you could tame that some what.

    Think like when we complain when someones pics/signature get out of control and it screws up the look of a thread.

    Other than that, I like the overall look of the website, and it provides what you need, it is also neither hard nor confusing to navigate. Other than that I can't say much other than pray my monetary goals are soon met. LOL .

    ^ Yek, if the screenplay is registered, why not make it downloadable and put it up right on the site? If you are going to sell this thing, you will have to do it on the strength of the material, not the talent.

    Correct. The style of having text run to the browser sides stopped about 7 years ago. Essentially what you need Yek is a series of tables to keep the information organized. Imagine reading a book where the pages were 2 feet wide with small print. Essentially that's the issue here. You need to create a centered table at, say, 760 pixels wide in resolution (for the 800X600 viewers) to make the information more viewable. Also, you should use sub-tables to better organize some of your pages such as the page where you have your cast...that page makes my head hurt just looking at it. Like I said, if you need some help. just PM me and I'll be happy to walk you through it.

    Also, TOO is correct. People are going to invest in this based on the content, not the cast. Unless you have someone like Tom Hanks starring in it, the investors are going to look at the strength of the content to carry it, not who is playing in it.

    Fair enough. I'll look into it. I didn't want to put the script online though... it's registered, but stuff still gets ripped off, and too many people don't know how to read scripts. I do agree that I need better copy on the front page.

    I'll rework it.
