New Site based on Executive Theme

[Aj]

Hey everyone - had to put this one together in a jiffy, but would love some feedback!

I had a few issues with IE8 and disappearing pictures, but I think it's all sorted now?

Thanks for taking a peek...

So this isn't a design feedback, but a photography one. He needs a new headshot. That is a terribly unflattering photo of him on the homepage.  Now, I say this coming from the perspective that I've never seen his face before, and to me, he looks like a bit of an alien.

Thanks for taking a look - he's a very fine gentleman, and I can assure you, he's not an alien 🙂

Aside from items out of my control, design comments? 🙂

Like what you did with the theme. 

I am also having problems with disappearing pictures when using IE, how did you fix that??

Thanks,

Hello, how do you activate the home page on this theme? I read through the http://my.studiopress.com/setup/executive-theme/ but did not find a way.

Any help with be greatly appreciated.

The home page is built automatically when you add widgets to the proper areas on the widgets page in the admin. If they are not showing up, make sure that you have "Latest Posts" selected under Settings > Reading in the admin area.

This is my first ever website, it needs a lot of work still, but for the life of me can't figure out how to add a logo in the header.   I want the Decoding Dyslexia OH logo in the header just to the left of Decoding Dyslexia OH.  Any suggestions?  I didn't know what I was doing so I just downloaded the sample executive theme and overwrote pages and for the pages/posts that I didn't need, I just put them in draft mode until I do some reverse engineering.  I also need to clean up the menu items.

Hi, do you have anything to do with Weblinsolutions?  If not they are including your site in their portfolio here - http://weblinsolutions.com/website-design.html.

They are including mine as well, http://www.myschoolbackup.co.uk, I've never heard of them before and only came across this during a recent backlink check and I recognised your site from here too.  Just thought you should know if you have not agreed to this!

THank you for pointing this out!

I'm actually shocked - I know I shouldn't be in this day and age but...

What measures have you taken?  I've attempted to contact them, but somehow that doesnt' seem like enough.

SHould we start another thread in the forums?  Chances are they are stealing other sites as well....

I've send them an email, also I've added a "Website by" link in the footer where the copyright is so that anyone who does visit can see the site is not their's.  Hopefully it will deter anyone else from claiming they designed it as well!

I don't really know what else we can do, I'll start another thread and maybe someone else has had experience of this and can comment.

I am moving this from Showcase over to the General area. I have also sent the Support Team an email on this issue regarding illegal use of showcase websites.
