Input Please

[jpitts78]

Hi all. This is my first store, it's been running for awhile now, but wanted to get some input about it. I have little experience and can do the basics for changes for coding.

 

What to you think I need to improve, remove, add, anything?

Nothing? Bad? Good? Fix anything? Geez, I didn't think it was that good... hahaha. Kidding.

Slightly modified default OSC theme? Took me a while to figure out what is about. (Big cats that eat small dogs for lunch maybe?).

I would move your new products of the month above all the bla bla bla about your site. Shoppers want to see what you have and then read about the bla bla bla later.

 

To move your codes your will need to open your index.php and find and cut lines 315, 316, 317

 

<tr>

<td><?php include(DIR_WS_MODULES . FILENAME_NEW_PRODUCTS); ?></td>

</tr>

 

 

 

and paste just after lines 306

 

Also you are using cheap image software and it leaves fuzzy looking images. If you can not afford Adobe Photo Shop or Macromedia FireWorks then find Gimp For Window (free Download) and learn how to make great images with great resolution for your site. Look like you have money even if you don't.

 

Get rid of your hotmail email address, looks like a rip off site and please don't add it to your header, you have a contact us page for that.

 

Looks like you sell on EBay by all the shipping and billing info on the index page with multi colored text. Shipping and billing info belong in the shipping page and not slapped all over your index. Look professional and do some research of your compeditors sites to see what they have on their index page.

 

I would add more information about my products if I were you either that or move the image above the discription and to move the image you will need to open product_info.php and find line 105,6 and 7 and find this code

 

<table border="0" cellspacing="0" cellpadding="2" align="right">

<tr>

<td align="center" class="smallText">

 

and change to this code

 

<table border="0" cellspacing="0" cellpadding="2" align="center">

<tr>

<td align="center" class="smallText"><br><br>

Thats it for now

Thank you for your input. I will be getting a new logo professionally designed, so I will be changing the header again later.

 

I have removed the email and phone number from the header.

 

I have removed the colors (just thought the colors would make it easier to separate).

 

And I will try the other suggestions and get the download as recommended.

lol... the rest of the website was done with Blue Voda (by Voda Host). It's a pet supply and accessory web site.

I am trying my best. I have never created a web store before, and coding is not my strongest point either. I still have a huge learning curve to go yet.
