pdcelec Posted January 17, 2011 Share Posted January 17, 2011 I am in the process of building a 2.3.1 shop. I would like some feedback on it so far. I currently only have 2 products enabled. Try the account pages and let me know what you think of the jquery http://www.electricalcity.co.uk Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
andy_1984 Posted January 17, 2011 Share Posted January 17, 2011 yes i like the jquery but in all honesty i could not look at your website for any more than 3 minutes as it was starting to affect my eyes. the red is WAY too bright >_< i start to see horizontal lines after reading the text, much like white text on black background Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
andy_1984 Posted January 17, 2011 Share Posted January 17, 2011 had to reduce the brightness on my monitor to give you better feedback. 1. "view current ebay auctions" doesnt look right can you remove the graphic it creates a gap between "current" and "auctions" 2. clicking my account redirects you to account.php but does show the popup, nice touch btw but can you stop it from redirecting to account.php 3. huge gaps between categories in circuit protection on categories menu after selecting circuit protection 4. on index "Main products" category title is inline with the image (not under it) doesnt look right. 5. you have "my account" and "logoff" buttons twice on every page. once in the menu at the very top then second in the templates menu "Home Page / Products / My Account / Logoff" 6. the logo is just awful, sorry. the idea is alright it just looks like its been done in mspaint, all pixily and low quality looking. sorry if that weas the effect you were going for :D 7. as said before the red is way to bright. 8. the font looks childish. 9. the search function on the main page doesnt work. i have to tpye my search in the popup search box again, note also text is overlapping the images on the search popup if you could please delete my account, customer name is "andrew test" thanks :) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

burt Posted January 17, 2011 Share Posted January 17, 2011 Haven't seen Comic Sans used since 1998. Get rid of the red. What point in showing the shopping cart infobox if it is empty. There is two very good threads, "how to make a great oscommerce site" and "how to make an awful oscommerce site" - suggest you read both. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

burt Posted January 18, 2011 Share Posted January 18, 2011 Much better now. The information dropdown does not work in Chrome or IE, have not checked in FF. It is suffering the same problem as I pointed out in this blog post; http://www.clubosc.com/horizontal-menu-in-oscommerce.html Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

pdcelec Posted January 24, 2011 Author Share Posted January 24, 2011 Version 2 progress I have made some extensive changes and looking for feedback on the progress so far. Note that the animations are all done with css3 not javascript. I have yet to finish the logo, so ignore that for now. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
