♥MYC267 Posted February 3, 2004 Share Posted February 3, 2004 I just don't know.... it's not quite right, something about it, I dunno what it is but it really needs some asthetical work. Dan Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest Posted February 3, 2004 Share Posted February 3, 2004 I think that you need to work on the graphics ! Have a look at what method mag have done with their shop ( they use oscommerce to and have done quite a good job) http://www.hot-zone.tv/store/index.php?ref...facturers_id=58 Although I'm not sure if what they are doing would be right in your case. As you are a snowboard manufacture / reseller. I would have a look around at some of the big boys like Salomon - Burton - Helly Hansen just to name a few. They are all concentrating on a real stylish professional image. Which is more directed towards information than sales (although they probebly do want sales :-)) As you are only selling your own brand and you are relitivly unheard of (We're a ski / snowboard retailer and havn't heard of you) I think that you should concentrate on POS and hope that sales follow. Just my opinion ! - Hope this helps all the best Nimmit Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest Posted February 3, 2004 Share Posted February 3, 2004 Just a quick evaluation. I think your site is cleaner than the second one. I like the fact that you've removed the columns and just gone with a central layout. It could use a little more spicing up in the graphics, but then again maybe not... :) http://www.freeriderstores.com/ is a nice looking site as well and may be a better reference than the other stores. I guess you do have to decide if you want to focus on sales or image more as mentioned before. However, overall I think it's a good start. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest Posted February 3, 2004 Share Posted February 3, 2004 thanks for your thoughts. i agree with you i need to add the graphics and spruce the site up. ive mainly been concerned with the fuctions of the site. i still need to add gift certificate, member discount and a few other backend add-ons. once i have the back end done graphics, btw: royhobbs and Nimmit both site has given me more ideas on the graphics portion of my site.. THANKS! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest Posted February 4, 2004 Share Posted February 4, 2004 ive been slowly addin gcolor and graphics to the site. i dont want to over clutter the look and feel of the site. i think a flash banner is way over due. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Chance Posted February 5, 2004 Share Posted February 5, 2004 I think every site should have Featured Models. My advice comes in two flavors- Pick the one that won't offend you.

Guest Posted February 7, 2004 Share Posted February 7, 2004 still adding color and graphics day by day.. starting subtle first. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
radders Posted February 7, 2004 Share Posted February 7, 2004 I like the colout scheme. Probably could do with one or two lovely images as others have said. One thing that looks odd to me it that the site only takes up the centre bit of my screen. All the rest is grey. Couldn't it be a bit wider?
