I'd consider whether Times is the best font too. The overall appearence is a little crowded, the scrolling box of products could fill more of the homepage and the logos under it could be spaced out a little more, generally smaller too. As I say - personal prefs, I like sans serif faces for headings, large and uncluttered, plus getting the message across fast so it jumps off the page, you get only a few seconds when someone arrives on the page before they hit somewhere else Alan C

Red is an interesting choice for a gardening site. All I can think of is that a lot of tools are red, but the red on the site is pretty overbearing, forexample if you open products them manufacturers drop-down menus, you have a lot of red on the page which comes across as harsh. Also as the above comment stated, the red-orange combo in the banner is hard to read. Since playing with a color-change is so easy, I'd try to get a few other color schemes going and then see which one you like best from a few variations. one othe comment, the testimonial qoute might go better in the sidebar.

Michael Hegarty Member Since: 22 May 2008 Posts: 7	Replied 27 May 2008 13:45:10 Thanks, yes, I'm not that keen on the colors myself, but I designed the site for my fathers business and, for some unknown reason he put red and yellow sign writing on all his vans. So it's really just sticking to a theme but I agree that it could do with toning down a little (or a lot) certainly.
