Default A Child's Palace

Here is the website I've been working on. I didn't want to show it until I had all the product pages up, but it will be tomorrow night before I can finish - so there are some products in the clock and desk line that aren't published yet.

Let me know what you think:

Hi Bethers,
Seeing all of your wonderful things for the children makes me realize how much I miss the little ones. Everything works good for me, you do have a little overlapping and kids room the links is broken. You did a great job!

Hi Bethers,

Works very well. Not all the links on the resources page worked and the kids room link isn't working. Apart from that good site, loads nice and quickly even with all the pictures!
Top notch
Cheers
Nick

Hi Bethers,

Yes, spotted the broken link but apart from that it looks excellent. Like the uniformity between all images and colour. Worked seamlessly, quickly and I didn't spot any overlapping. Good job Missus.

Thanks, all. Forgot to mention that I have to build that room yet LOL - and I just got one of the links pages added before my eyes forced me to bed last night - 4 am was as late as I could work!

Whoever saw any overlapping, can you tell me where you saw it and what browser you are using? I spent about 6 hours yesterday working back and forth between IE, Firefox and Netscape, and changing some sizes, etc - to get rid of all overlapping on the 3 computers in this house. But if there's still some I can get rid of, I certainly would like to try.

Thanks so much for all your very kind and wonderful words. I sure wish they had all this fun stuff for kids when I was buying it!

Very good, Bethers: you take all the fun out of scouring new sites- no over laps; no misspellings,; everything flows nicely, loads quickly and - most important- the site sells the products.

One small "jolt" was the type face change in the resources section. It did match the Maxie links type face and is certainly not a criticism; just a comment.

Thank you Thank you - means a lot to me.

Dave, I'm still looking at changing that type - it's what is used by the program I use to get links - and I haven't changed that - probably should keep it the same. I was thinking that comic sans has probably been overused as a font, but I like it and it seems good for the product.

Thank you all for your words.

I removed the purple line that I think might have been causing the overlap on your computer SC - I'd rather not have that design part, than have it cause any problems.

So glad to have all your eyes.

In the next month or two, we will have back all the child beddings also - there will be 10 of the themes. In soft cotton for babies and children!

Thanks for the kind words and congrats on your upcoming baby!

As someone who is a Chairperson of a children chartiy love the site, its hard to find good items for children at great prices.

Found the site easy to move around and quick to find what I wanted....

Shame you can't deliver to the UK!

I can deliver to the UK - just need 24 hours to quote separately for shipping. I'll need to add that somewhere on the site. Cuz the products are really worthwhile.

I'll have to work on that! Thanks.
