Hi all!!!

I decided to launch my site on this date (8-8-

..so even though I am still adding more items, I will launch it now. I'll do my very best to fill in all the categories. As of now (12:30pm-UK time), the only categories working are the WOMEN"S FASHION - CLOTHING AND ACCESSORIES.

Without all the help I got from this forum, my site would not be possible.

Please try my site out and if there may be any improvements or changes I have to do, please feel free to inform me.

I have one more problem, but it's out of building a site. But if anyone can help me out, thank you so much! It's about Royal Mail Delivery. Would anyone advice me on how to properly charge my customers on the delivery rates within UK? When you read my site, most of the items are in pre-order basis, so they are not on-hand yet. So there's no possibility I can the the exact weight of each.

Special thanks to Marincky, Karen Mac, Navaldesign & Lcoisas for all the help. God Bless you all! God Bless this forum!

Looks gorgeous!

I noticed that the separators (flashing lines) were running across the headings in a few places (eg. the 'Women's Accessories' page)
I'm using IE today as my browser, if that helps.

I did personally find the flashing lines a little busy and distracting.

Your 'about us' page just needs a little rework of the grammar.

Best of luck with your new shop! :)

Hi Pink,

Glad we all could help you.

You're website looks great!

I'm in a rush now, but I'll later take a better look, and post to you again.

Good luck for your business.

Hi Pink Basket. I just love the painted bracelets. They are gorgeous! I too can do without the busy (moving) lines. For me, they detract and are almost hypnotic while trying to look at the items below it, (basically, they move the eyes away from the product). Other than them running through the word Accessories under all of the categories, the site appears well planned out and organized. Good job Lady. Good luck with your business and your site.

I know you wont like me.. but get rid of those flashy bars and scrolling marquees. If im a shopper im totally distracted by watching what all these things do.. they flash too much.. Use something solid to divide your pages.. the all pink is flashy enough by its lonesome...dont make it guady.. go professional..

My sentiments exactly Karen..............

You have made a very good start....now comes the hard work.....lol

jkadin · #7 08-08-2008, 10:51 PM

I agree with above about the marquee. Also your banner on the other pages are way to big with kbs at 105kbs added with the images it took a while to load some pages to much empty space. color wise right now is good your footer banner looks streched out goo start but needs work with keyword phase titles and optermized.

pinkbasket · #8 08-09-2008, 12:08 AM

WOW! Thanks so much for all those comments!!! Now, I'm going to delete all those flashy lines...I thought it was nice..thanks for telling me it's NOT! LOL!

And I'll consider all your suggestions. I'll do my very best to edit my site just how you want it to look. I value others' opinions so much!

Thanks again everyone!!!

Hi Pink Basket. Wow, what a difference. But on a couple of your pages (believe Men and Kids Clothing - can't remember), that the separator runs through the text. That should be an easy and minor fix though. Not sure if you've noticed but you have some text running away from the page on your FAQ page. Other than a few minor issues as I've mentioned, I think that it looks good-It's very pink. I'm not one to really be drawn to the color pink, but knowing that you have those cute bracelets, will make me come back again.

Hi Stef!

Thanks so much for informing me about the text misplaced in FAQ page. I just forgot to delete it..LOL!

About the separator running through the text, I'm sorry but I can't see it.. Would you tell me where exactly it is for me to fix it?

You are very welcome to buy the bracelets..LOL! Trust me, they really look good. And they are intricately painted..Oh my..I'm promoting now..LOL!

Please drop me a message in my site if you want to contact me bout it..

Thanks Stef!!!

Hi,
Not sure if that's the effect you want but some flowers are overlapping the 'we would love to hear from you' text on the left. Keep up with the hard work!

Cheers,

Aw!!! I want to fix it..but I really can't see it on my browser. I tried viewing the page in IE and Firefox, but everything looks ok to me..

Would you mind giving me a screen shot of the problem page in my site? Thanks very much!

This really is a hard work...LOL!

But I can do this..

Thanks!!!
