I have just finished updating my website: triciamcgill.com using websitebuilder and would really love some feedback. The only thing that doesn't seem to be working is my email address. Is that because I use Thunderbird?

Hey Tricia!!
Your email should work in Thunderbird as long as it has the proper settings. Here is an article that should help with that:

Otherwise, can you check if your email is working properly in Roundcube? I took a look at your account and I am not seeing anything that should prevent your email from working.

This has only confused me more. I only want my email address to work for others who wish to contact me via email. I've never had this problem before but when I test my email address on my site it just opens a blue screen which leads me nowhere. Is there another way to set up my contact email in websitebuilder?

So, I think we need to clarify what you are talking about. Is this a link on your site that people are suppose to be able to click on to email you? Or are you referring to an email address that you either can't send or receive from?

Thanks, but the problem has been sorted for me by a friend. It's something on my PC that needs to be sorted so I can see it as others do.

After months of work finally decided time to publish and redirected to our old sight. I have an issue with the navigator button that returns visitors to the top only showing up on CONTACT page, and on the home page (About Us) the four images (gallery) I need them to link to the pages that appears when you mouse over. Tried doing with single images and the gallery and neither have given the result I am looking for. Still a work in progress and any critiques will be appreciated. https://community.homestead.com/www.redeemercatawba.com

Honestly I would recommend you call in, because the instructions I gave you for the mouse over text appearing would give you that functionality. If you call in, someone can walk you through that process instead of trying to follow written instructions.
