Hi,
Thank you all for comments.
Yes not all the links work yet as it is still under construction unfortunately - I want to make it the cream of the crop as websites go - so am going to spend about a month on it!
> ps. frames are the work of the devil
It doesnt use frames, nor tables - just xHTML Strict, CSS and Javascript
> Who's woodsandhillsplc ? Is that you? the links to the templates what have been bought are on that website as a directory...
Yes Woodsandhillsplc . co . uk is my site too - also Page rank 3 : )
It is where I host most of stuff - but you are right I will carry accross everything to the Web3 Server as soon as it is finished.
> This is just my opinion - but I don't the the home page is too attractive - the text buttons are way too big. hurts my eyes 
I also think you need some sort of introduction
Thankyou for your criticism, a couple of other people have said they arent sure about the design - and thats one of the reasons why I am beta testing it now before I spend x amount of time doing it that way. From a graphic designers perspective - I think it is beautiful and fashionable in a web 2 sense (if I say so myself
) but as you have said - the buttons are unconventionally large, and there is no intro/about text.
Its tricky to know what to do. For every inkling I have that I should be 100% conventional, as this is obviously what you must do to get on in the commerical world - and something i am fully prepared to do on client sites - there is a part of me that wants to push boundaries - be creative and unusal - as this is a good way to get noticed and linked to from the main design blogs.
> lack of intro text
This is something I am seriously thinking about. I guess my rational was that if someone searches for say "web design in manchester" - when they end up onthe site - they already know you a web design firm in manchester - so should I disrupt the design to tell them this?
Perhaps the answer is indeed yes I should! Or should rejigg the design so to be able to fit it in.
thank you all for comments they are greatly appreciated.
Any more would be most welcome!
And please be assured that I wouldnt normally spend so long to-ing and fro-ing on a client site - i guess its a little different when its your site - one is fully prepared to spend a month creating it if necessary.
