After reading some of the reviews on other sites, I think I need to do some adjustments. Will it look better if I center my site ? Also I know I have alot of pics on some pages, so can someone lead me in the direction on how to get my page to load quicker. All critics welcome.

Hi, Very good site for your first go. I have not been through more than the Home page, but noticed a lot of spelling mistakes. Here is an example on the first line

Since the introduction of AMSOIL Synthetic Motor Oil in 1972, AMSOIL has gone on to develope the most complete line of synthetic lubricants.

It is very important that your spelling is correct especially to potential customers as it reflects on the professionalism of you and your business. I would take it all through spell checker and correct any mistakes.

Good Luck with it

Hi and well done... you have done a great job ...

a couple of things ...

yes to centring the pages ...

Also I notice the pages that have a lot of photos on them load quite slowly and I have fast broadband .... while the images are on average about 80nkb you should be able to get this down to about 10 kb or so and still have the image the same size you have now ... there is a free program here called pixresizer which can do this for you ...

keep up the good work ...

Hi, looking good. Got quite a lot of sideways scroll on the pages. I think this image http://www.innovativesynthetics.com/bv01847.gif is creating the problem, & may might be better using a background image.

Nice work,
It appears that you are an established business and the web site shoould be a huge asset to increase sales.

One thing I noticed is that a number of your images show a blue, white or other color background, while the majority do not. Use the logo function in BV to make a transparent background for all your images. Alternative: use Paint.net. This will make for a very professional site.

On spelling, since you operate in the USA "develop" is correct. Still, it always helps to run a spell and grammar checker.

Something I missed, and this is industry related, you do not mention MSDS -perhaps a link to the contact page would point customers in the right direction.

Good luck.

OK, I've made a couple of changes.I've used picsizer to mreduce the images already. I'm afraid to go any smaller to be able to read the bottles.
LT, what is MSDS and I have a contact button.

He had "Devolpe" U.S or U.K this was wrong Bill.

Well its looking a lot better, the more things people point out the more you learn. I do find the menu bars a little hard to read. I would use black text instead of red, but that's your choice.

Hi,

Yes I agree have a look at the menu bars replace with bigger menu bars so you can get bigger text in there..or do away with them and replace with text.

Contact page is put to good use,very good.

Well done..I can see you have put a lot of time and effort in to it!
