Not bad at all Bro. I had to squint a little at the verbage under the photos, but I have been having to squint a lot more lately... maybe someone who has 20/20 vision can clarify. It loads fast, quick transition, informative... cool man, cool. Good job.

overall very nice, easy on the eyes and easy to read.
to the point without a lot of distracting crap.
one note, the blue copy is hard to read against the dark gray background, but other than that, very nice.



okay, why no star burst or glows, or the use of comic sans?
LOL
couldn't help myself.

Very nice, looks sharp...except you're going to have web purists like me ask why it was built with tables instead of divs & CSS. Good work.

I have to agree with the small type - and I have perfect vision. I had to bump it up a level to read it comfortably.

Oh yeah - just put reflections on all your graphics and make all the solid color areas into gradients. Then it will be PERFECT!

From a casual observer and deff not a web design type- I liked it. Good job.

Ok I hear what you say about the small type - we'll fix that. Comic Sans, damn, I knew we needed that in there somewhere.  :laugh:

Chris (our resident graphic desinger*) is just getting to grips with DW (it's only his second site) so I think he'll sharpen up as he learns more.

And the feedback from you guys will really help us get it as right as we can.


*At least that's what we employed him for initially, but don't worry we've dragged him kicking and screaming into the prepress fold,
he's now capable of imposition (manual), creating artwork that we can actually print as well as outputting plates from the CTP.

Looks good. Loads fast. Rick Astley playing in the background would have made it perfect. :laugh:

BTW, Happy Birfday Eye... I know I said it at the other place... but wanted to extend my congratulations here as well! :wink: :cool:

Looks nice but the site seems to completely disregard SEO. Don't you want to be found on the web?

[DCurry]

Very nice - clean and simple (that's how I like my ladies!) I like the color scheme.

I agree that the blue type is hard to read against the gray background, though for me it is only a problem with the gray under the pictures. The gray at the top of the page is dark enough to provide enough contrast with the blue.

One suggestion - if I try to bookmark the page, it is listed in my bookmarks as "Web". If I recall my DW correctly (it has been a while) I believe this is easily changed in the Page Properties. You'll want to fix it for each page so that the browser window says "Eyetech Graphics" or whatever you want -- just something more descriptive than "Web".

Also, I would make the word "Home" (at the top left nav bar) a link to the home page. Currently I have to click on the icon to get there, but every other word up there is a link.

Grammar Nazi checking in:

On the Testimonials Page, the "tab graphic" with the fountain pen image has "Comments" missing a letter.

And maybe it's just me, but all of the Product listings at the bottom, would be nice if they linked to sample images. Maybe in a new Viewer window of some kind?

Nice looking site though!  :cool:

You are truly a sick man, and my favorite forum admin EVER.

[EyeTech]

Thanks for all your comments guys (esp. to Slappy for pointing out the typo).

Site will be up soon...

cheers
