Re: Hello fellow vodahost users

Ditto above.
Your site is about cars, consider significant changes to make the cars you have in inventory take center stage.

Re: Hello fellow vodahost users

Big change, you're getting there.
Consider:
-work the NavBar so the mouseover is the same for all menus.
-get rid of the counters, you can use cpanel for the same
-link your email so that users can contact you without copy and paste.
-that prices text should be another color.
-"Commercial vehicles" logo is round, use Pixresizer to size dont pull on the corners.
-links seem to work.

Good luck

Re: Hello fellow vodahost users

much better without that background -- needs to be centered and yellow text on white (prices) hard to read
more pictures of cars perhaps

Hi Eric,

Youve made a good start but you still have a lot of work to do ....one question I have ...is that classy looking glass building on your website ..your dealership?....if so I would base your design and colours on that ....I really dont like to give negative feedback ...but in my opinion the yellow makes your site look a little tacky ......and I agree with all of the above ...and Bill is right your website is about your cars....try not to get sidetracked putting unrelated subjects on there ...does'nt look professional.

First thing I would do is take a look at other Car websites on the internet to give you some ideas....take your colour scheme throughout your website...put your navigation menu bars in the same place on every page..choose some nicer buttons..........stay away from highlighting the text ...unless its done properly that to looks a little tacky.

When I first started to build my website I wanted to put everything on it ...then someone pointed out to me that ...less is more ...I try to stand by that.

On a more positive note ...all your links work.. youve mastered the photo gallery and other features ...a good start ...well done ...keep tweaking and you will get there :o)

Re: Hello fellow vodahost users

Thank you all for your quick feedback.
There is lots of work involved building a functional site. Linda you are right!! I need to think my entire layout over.

Lots of thanks
Eric

Re: Hello fellow vodahost users

I do like some of the things you've done. I think you need to stick to the same page design for each page, don't know where the electricity BG came from or what it relates to. I don't see the need for the weather unless it is for the convertible buyers. The pages need centering and there is a text space showing "Double click to edit" top right index page. I agree with the yellow text advice. Some of the site is exceptional for me, keep working.

Re: Hello fellow vodahost users

I like your site. I agree with the Google Search. It's still good without mate ;).

Re: Hello fellow vodahost users

Hey mate! I did some searches on Google for 'Car Sales'. Blue, Green and White seem to be the best colors. Just a suggestion, but it's your site and we can't make you do nothing ;).
