Guest Posted November 20, 2006 Posted November 20, 2006 Hello I would be very grateful for some feedback on my online store/website. I have tried to take note of a lot of the forums here, but I am sure that there are loads of things I have done wrong, or could do to improve. The store is 'vanilla' oscommerce, with bits I didn't need taken off (and a few bits added!) I have plans to change things in the near future, but desperate to get the store up for Christmas orders :) I am just finalising the paypal ipn so that isn't working and I need to go through and check/re-check everything, but I would really be grateful for: General feedback, , in particular; Are the graphics clear enough (I have tried to balance download time with clarity, but don't know if its good enough - particularly as we sell images)! Is the layout ok? I know the main website needs to look similar to the onilne store and vice versa - I am working on this! I would welcome any constructive feedback as fear if I spend anymore time on it a) I will go insane B) will never go live! Thank you very much in anticipation! My Store
natewlew Posted November 20, 2006 Posted November 20, 2006 I think your TD.infoBoxHeading and TD.headerNavigation need a different background color. Other great Open Source (Free) programs: (Free as in free speech not free beer) The Gimp - An image program. | Firefox - All you have to do is add the Web Developer add-on to make this web browser complete. | FileZilla - An ftp program. | Inkscape - A good program to create images with. | Thunderbird - An email program. | Openoffice.org - An office suite that is compatible with MS Office. | Abiword - Another office suite. | Audacity - A sound recording tool. | ddp's Picks | Wordpress - An easy to use blogging software. | Joomla - An easy to use CMS that has ecommerce plug-ins. | Drupal - Another CMS How do I find these programs? Google Search!
Andrew Yuen Posted November 23, 2006 Posted November 23, 2006 Well the layout/design/colors of your store are pretty much stock osCommerce. I recommend getting rid of the -> arrows in your category infobox. I also recommend getting rid of the languages infobox on the right since only English is offered. Other then that I would work on modifying the design to match your own color scheme which seems to be black, red and blue. Andrew Yuen osCommerce, Community Team
♥FWR Media Posted November 23, 2006 Posted November 23, 2006 For a first effort my initial impression is that it's very fast .. good job. You may want to add this mod to reduce image size 'On the Fly' Auto Thumbnailer using GD Library Visually it is stock and would benefit greatly from some themeing to match the logo and products.
