      Alien,

      Thanks for having a look. Glad you liked it! To answer what you said, I am using Zeus for link pages, and using the free version, so I don't know yet if I can do that or not. I am going to look into it but at least I got the color to match my site!

      As for the currency converter I can only ship to the USA, so I do not need one, all prices are in USD!

        Nice work,
        Some things that stand out and are easy to adjust:
        -Your Footnote is not centered within the rectangle, notice that there is more space on one side, this makes it appear "tilted"
        -Several of the images are slightly out of focus. Pickwick and the coffee makers.
        -Back to Alien's comment on currency, you're in Canada- a note stating that all prices are USD will help clear any confusion.
        -Consider "tightening" the text in te articles so that it looks more professional, example don't leave orphan words hanging "soil"
        -Watch use of brand names Fed Ex is FedEx, one word.

        Good luck

          That is why I asked for this, I can look at stuff a hundred times and not notice it. One question for you, when you refer to my footer being off centre, on which page are you referring to? It can appear different on each page, because of the php. If you let me know i can narrow it down.

          I didn't realize the FedEx had a space in it either, I will fix stuff up tomororrow before I start working on more pages (have to add the coffee maker pages). I will put all prices are in US on each page as well! Maybe on the right side, so it propogates to each page automatically!

          I am also going to try and line up the template so it stays the same for the rest of the pages that I add for the header, footer, and the two side bars.

          It is a work in progress, but that is what makes a good site great!

            Consider refining your "buttons" or your navigation altogether....even using a "square" button would be better than alowing the conflicting backgrounds to be visible.

            You have the foundations (Content, structure, etc.) of a potentially great website, but it's obvious where BV can help you bring out the best, right? Pay attention to the details of design and layout construction basics, and the other stuff will fall into place magically....

              I am new at this but eager to learn, I think it has a great look to it, and even though it is frustrating sometimes, it is nice to learn new things! I think my customers like it too, I just had a sale of over $100!!! :)

                    Re: Please have a look

                    First of all, replying to Alien, I wish I could ship anywhere in the world, but my supplier simply will not do it. Actually most of the coffee sites I have looked at it only ship in the USA, must be to do with customs and stuff!

                    Secondly, I have gone through my pages and looked at all the php bars on it and I think I have them looking pretty good now. I still have more pages to add so I am going to get working on them soon too!

                    Please have a look and let me know if I am on the right track or not!

                    Thanks!
