Excellent stuff. It must have taken you a while? Good to see all those programmes, websites like this should be compulsory!! I'd like to do one like that but I'm not great with technology. |

It wasn’t too bad, as I could import my scans direct from Flickr. It probably took me about 4 weeks doing a couple of hours per day adding the programme details etc
There are many websites out there who provide you with templates, most offer a free version initially to see if it will allow you to do what you want. I tried a few then went with Wix, the only downside I could see is that it doesn’t offer a search option that works on photos/scans, although I believe it’s something they are looking at.

Very impressive
From a design point of view, is it possible to hide or minimise the "Let's Chat" bar at the bottom of the page?
Just that it leave quite a narrow strip in the middle to see the programmes |

The "Let's Chat" bar may be large on a phone but it's small and inobtrusive on a pc.
Very impressive, well done on all your hard work. |

Let me have a look at it, it’s been designed predominantly for a PC but can be tailored for mobile devices.
Thanks for the feedback, all greatly appreciated
Cheers

I think I have sorted it, the ‘let’s chat’ should now only show on pages without programme images
Thanks again for the feedback
Cheers

That's brilliant Gavin
Managed a quick look there but will definitely set some time aside for a proper look later.
My favourite obviously being the Stirling Albion away fixture in April 51 for the benefit match for legendary Albion captain Jock Whiteford. Cracker.
Cheers

It doesn’t come around very often that one, I think I have seen it on sale twice in the past decade! _________________ Doncaster Rovers - Only a pub team having a laugh !

Excellent work Gavin, nicely done.
I will add a link to the site from my sites.

Not too much at all, and what I did was relatively simple.
If you fancy it, best thing to do is set up a free account and have a little play around (I did that with a few providers to get a feel on what would work best for me). I’m also happy to help you, if you would find that beneficial.
The only negative for me is that there is no search engine for the galleries/photos, but I believe this is something they are looking at.
Cheers
