Hi, you have named your page with an upper case "C" & your url link with a lower case "c"

Hey John,
You have a very clen looking site. your inventories page is not centered. You also have a couple of pages that have the same name. Looks good just needs the always needed tweaking. Good Luck!!

Thanks for your advice and help.
I have made the changes and republished.

Kind Regards

First thing I could see is the need to clean up your navigation: in your buttons, I would make the font size maybe 2 sizes smaller, and make it BOLD in order to not run outsize visually appealing margins, and to make them more legible and prominent for visitor use at the same time.

Consider how definitive use of Font mantenence on your site helps create a sense of uniformity and cohesion of "flow", which in turn evokes a cripsness that speaks "professionalism"......

Thanks for the advice, have followed it and republished.

Your site lacks anything "inviting" or even basic of visitor appeal....maybe you are relying on traditional marketing methods entirely and discount random or web derived traffic entirely?
> The site is "stark" and lacks pertinent, themed, complimentary, or explantory use of images. Everything from the cold Font-based header/logo to your 'replacement' with the grey-background area (which is an incongruent color to your overall scheme). Get creative!

Your site page transition is weak: do you not note that your page headers are not positioned precisely page-to-page?

Page composition could use better formatting for text: different font besides Roman...try Tahoma, and maybe a dark blue instead of a black if using this template? Maybe a click bigger too, so to lighten up the reading crunch...

I am going to let others continue from here.....

Good Start!

Thanks for your advice, I am new to this so suggestions are always welcome.
A bit afraid of messing with it but I will give it a try.

Hi, when you get a second John. Set your all your page widths to 780. It will center the site a bit better. Its set at 700 at the mo, & pushing everything to the right 80px.

Thank you Chris, I have done as you suggested and republished.

Could you tell me why the thank you page appears to have a page overlay?

I have been into the cp and deleted the page then republished but it is still there.

Many thanks.

John.

Hi, its seem like there are 2 thankyou pages (Obviously) lol. On your thankyou page is there 2 html boxes with code in them, because there is 2 lots of code on the page when you look at the page source at my end. Like something has been duplicated by accident . Strange.

Hi John,

An easy way to 'mess' with it is to open a blank page and use the 'clone page' feature (second form left in your bv toolbar). Name it your pagenameclone or 2 or something. Try anything you like on this page while the original stays intact. When you get it to something you like rename it to the original name and republish. It will overwrite the original page both in bv and on the web.
