Hi Amber,
You have some side-scroll on your Products page & a tiny bit on About Us.

Helpful Tips: Dutch Oven's- no ' 2 times in the 1st. 2 paras
When the Dutch Oven leaves the factory, they - I would say:
When Dutch Ovens leave the factory, they
well cared-for Dutch
...
and let it soak
Charcoal Briquette Starters-for easy starting of
briquettes
Light Charcoal and wait until it is light gray.
But leaving them on too long
8. Ash can build up on a briquette. If it starts to build up,
remove the ash by tapping the briquette.
At the bottom of this page maybe extend the green side border so you don't have that L shape??
About Us:
the Walkers have found
requests from friends and others involved
And finally..........you have a problem with the contact form - I tried a test message & got a 404 success page not found
For your first attempt: pretty darn good :)

Ok I will move my picture over hopefully that will take care of it. I tried it in firefox and IE and it isn't covering for me, so let me know if it still covers it.

What do you mean by side scroll? When I view them again it shows all the words fine, I assume you mean you have to use the scroll bar at the bottom?

I noticed the contact error, but I can't seem to figure out how to fix it. As soon as I can I will get it updated.

Your site is not a reference site, nor is it very big; so eliminate the google search. The google background color does not go with your background color.

Speaking of background color - it should be the same on every page. We noticed that it changes from page to page. Pick one color and stick with it.

Keeping with site consistancy - your pages should have a uniform width too. Decide on one page size, then use it throughout the site. Also, different fonts are used on different pages too. Pick a web font and use it throughout the entire site (Time New Roman is a print front).

Next, the Sierra and Voda ads hang on the sides like a pair of saddle bags. Both ads do not have to be on every page. I would suggest they go on the left side bar when space is available.

Then there are the little things - the details, such as - The left side bar goes from white at the top to green at the bottom. But, the top left square is brown. So your side bar should go from dark at the top to light at the bottom. The square should be a color blend of the header and side bar. So, the square should be a darker green; or the top or side should be red.

Keeping with the boxes - they each have borders. Right click on each; go into Properties and adjust the border width setting to 0. Borders are enhancements for stand-alone shapes. But the borders create conflict when the shapes touch each other.

Finally, the index has too many pictures in too small of a space; and they are overshadowed by the booth photo. Sprinkle your photos throughout the site. And place an introduction (or welcome) on your index page.

Overall, you have a nice site. Make small adjustments over time to end up with a site you are happy with:)
