I'm sorry about the lack of response. It's hard to critique a site done on a colleague's template. At first glance it is very professional. I would suggest changing the logo to .gif format. There is some degradation from saving it as a .jpg. At least try it to see how it does. The product photos seem too small to me. I cannot see the details I would like to see when shopping online. The red borders around the thumbnails don't match the color scheme. If I click on the thumbnail on the shopping cart, what's supposed to happen? I assumed I'd get a larger view of the product, but it just came back to the same page. I'd like to see you remove the backgrounds from the photos. Some of them don't look real sharp against the white background, mostly because of compression degradation, some from slightly different colors of white. There is a sentence you may want to look at. In the right column, "You save 33% just on the exchange." Who does? UK? Australia? US? And in the paragraph where it's talking about wholesale...mage = Image? There is no period after the last sentence in that column. ooops. I just clicked on the link to see what was "new" and was sent to a page with no navigation. On the search, about, and contact pages, why no top level product navigation? I would keep that on all pages. After all, it's the meat of your site. People like to jump around when surfing web pages. They may look at a couple of things, decide to read about your company, then decide to do business with you, but if they've been surfing using the horizontal links...they're gone. Wholesale is still not capitalized in the nav bar, but needs to be. Generally, the site is quite attractive, I mostly think you need to emphasize the product to a greater extent. Good luck with it!
