    IMO your link for the homepage should be just your domain name like the example I used for your logo link.

      Re: Requesting a site review

      This is my first review so please bear with me. I really like your website. The colour scheme is lovely, the pictures crisp and tidy. The navigation works well but I think you should be aware that people who use "NoScript" cannot see everything on your website. For instance I couldn't see (and there was no hint that they even existed) Babelfish or your tickertape until I marked your website as trusted. Of course once I did mark your site as trusted (to try and find Babelfish) the tickertape drove me crazy. It's incredibly distracting. I reckon that you should lose it instead of running the risk of losing customers. As others have pointed out the sitemap is empty. Your photos in the coffee and tea sections take a long long time to load when you're on dialup (but they load very fast in the organic section). In my country more than 50% of people are still on dialup so I think it's important that pages load fast for them as well. One last thing, on your homepage the link for "single origin coffee" reacts very strange in Firefox - mouseover causes the first two lines to change font and imitate a link (strange effect). Overall quite a pleasant website though, you should be proud.

        Well, I think I have most of the bugs stamped out.

        One thing I'm having some challenges with is:
        I don't see it in logo properties, but i think it is probably quickest and easiest to insert the link through the html of the logo:

        Right click on logo>>HTML>>insert link

        For example:

        <a href="http://www.coffeebeansbeansbeans.com"> in the before tag

        and don't forget the closing tag </a> in the after tag
        I've tried to get this logo link to work but it still giving me a run for my money.
        Maybe someone can check my coffee page?

        I put the above info in but it doesn't seem to be linking the logo to the home page... Ugh!

        Keep 'em coming!

                Not sure...

                yes.. it should be linked to just the .com

                  Thank You All!!!

                  This forum is so great!

                  I'm a work in progress, I believe most of the changes have been made.

                  Except one... I cannot get a handle on the white boxes popping up during the page transition??
                  I tore apart one of the pages thinking that I might have left a clear or white box behind the scenes, Nope... nothing there
                  Could it possibly be something in BV transitions?
                  Another issue,
                  Maybe I should put this in another thread?
                  The punctuation goes to the front of my sentence in the larger text elements box? ?Know what I mean <<< after publishing

                  If some else wants to comment on the site, Please do!
