I like the girls yeah :))))) but not the lines you got in the head title of your web site's name, forget about that, it's bad idea, create a small simple logo and plce it there, but why you have that 3 first photos in the main pages, reapetition is bad idea too, change them in each page.

did I throw wnough for now ;)))

Anyway, great job, like your web site.

Who is your audience?
.....give it some thought.

ps. Jeremy has offered free headers.

Like the site ...agree with NP although I understand why u did it that way. I think by putting more pictures on the other pages you could have your audience more curious and wanting to see more ...thus keeping them on your site. I would even link the pictures if not too much trouble to take them to the areas with that group of dresses. ALthough I like your 'next page'...most brides are going to just want to get into seeing the pictures so you might want to provide a direct link on the first page itself to get to those dresses ...don't keep us gals waiting.

On another note...have your considered carrying ethnic bridal wear like Saris etc....large market there and you might be surprised how many new brides are looking for different ethinic ideas for their weddings as well...just a thought. I hae few sites I can send your way if you are interested.

hey Ramsey!! U r busy!!

I love the pics on the first page...they are beautiful! and I wanted to see more, but I couldn't get into the products page as it kept timing out on me....drats.

Honestly??......ok......I think it is "cold". Sorry!!! Your other one last week was more elegant. The straight blue lines and geometric style, to me, does not fit with these glamorous, soft, romantic gowns. I'm not sure how to fix it....maybe add a background color and soften the lines somehow--make them more transparent or satiny, or curved or something?...or maybe put some of the text in some script/italic?......but it seems too "office" looking to me instead of high-end boutique. maybe it is the white and dark blue combo....maybe if it was rich pink lines/rose (not red) or white lines on a tinted background???

Hmmmm don't know. Then again,maybe your audience here is a corporate buyer and not a bride.....so not really sure.

Just my opinion from an artsy point of view. Technically, I find it easy to navigate, interesting, and I wanted to look at the dresses!!!! So that is GREAT!!!

I am not selling to brides?? I don't want brides looking at this site. This is a site for bridal retailers, distributors etc, so don't want to look like a bridal retail site with lots of pretty laid out dresses for girlies?

Taken on board what you have said everyone and will work on it : - )

Thank you

oh!!!!! NO girlies, huh? LOL LOL LOL

Now I get it! Ok, scratch off my "artsy" comments above. It does look more like a "commercial" site....so there, you did it!

You are the last person on this planet with dial up? LOL

ROFL! Do I Get a Prize??????? LOL (for guessing your audience!!)

islandcrazy · #11 08-16-2006, 03:48 AM

Ok, Ramsey!! Put up your dukes!!! LOL

I'll have you know that over 50% of all internet users are on dial-up! It's a CURSE! I know!! I'm working on getting satellite, but there are only two companies in my area that offer it....and one is going to jail for tax evasion .....!!

Have mercy on we lowly dialups! But I'm sure your customers who shop the internet regularly will have high speed. Good luck!

Marincky · #12 08-16-2006, 03:51 AM

Ok... well on to the next one.... this guy got me making him SIX websites...silly really cos they all for the same company???? But anyway, Will have a relook at it tomorrow and maybe take away them lines in the logo, I wasn't 100% sure about them

Night Night it's 3am here!

Hi Ramsey,

As usual I think your work is excellent.

However I would advise your guy to re-shoot the Petit Fleurs Collection with live models.

My French was never that good (strange admission from a Ballet teacher) but shouldn’t that be Petite with an ‘e’.

Thanks Mary, you're an angel x
I agree about the PF range, It lets the rest down doesn't it?
I also agree about the "e" but that's how they spell it and they own the company so....

Hi Ramsey

….they own the company so....

Acceptance is a challenging lesson isn’t it, together with learning to smile
through gritted teeth.
