our business website version .03

[Goosemaster]

myhsr.com



The major issue right now is that it doesn;t load correctly in firefox and I can't figure out why


gallery

It's very basic right now and I simply set it up to see what people think of it in terms of navigation. I have always loved simple viewer and decided that that would be the way to go.

We have many pictures left to add, but I wanted to get something out there for the feedback.

It's clean, but it's plain and looks like a generic template. I don't know what kind of home reno you do - if it's a local one man op or a small-medium sized business. It definitely has potential, and looks great for what it is though!

thanks...the route I took using flash was a disaster....too complicated and too busy.

Some simple css, a little code from some templates, and now I have a very clean site...now to give it some legs and a beak...and some fangs


Yes, we are a three man operation.

site 8/10 looks nice easy to navagate. maybe put a lil more content and pics of completed projects

The colors are terrible, the banner image is tiled, the links are messed up in the navigation, images have either nothing to do with the site or you can't tell what they are, I could go on and on all day.

The flash one was a lot better.

I'd definitely considering adding pictures of some of your past work.

oh, we are. I jsut wanted to decide upon a default css layout.....

I was using flash and it was too messy, too much of a pin to edit.

i'm working on that right now...also the quote and contact forms...trying to do it with php is being finicky...

In the content don't say, "We at....".

It sounds somewhat unprofessional IMO.

Yeah have someone write it for you. the whole thing needs cleaned up.
site looks good though

Is the title supposed to be a link? If so, it doesn't work.

 

[snoopdoug1]

clicking on the menus on the right make them change... that's not good. I think what you're doing is removing the page that you're currently on from the menu. I'd suggest NOT doing that since it makes it hard to navigate imho. Just put all the links up there, if someone clicks the same link twice, who cares

 

[Goosemaster]

thanks. I will make the necessary changes sicne most of the ideas/critiques are legit...

 

[JS80]

I like the simple layout, but it needs lots of work still.

[*]I agree with others. When I clicked on "our work", I wanted to see your work. That is, unless you manufacture screws.

[*]Address is not spelled adress.

[*]Message Sent: To: $recipient Subject: $subject Message: $msg"); else echo "Message failed to send"; } ?>

[*]Text boxes are far too small on the contact us page. Plus the label takes up 3 lines:
"Please specify what type of
information you are
requesting"

[*]Where's the I need a Quote button?

[*]Needs work on the text. "When we started two years ago, this was our defining principle..." What is "this"? There is nothing in that paragraph that "this" refers to. Founding principle/defining principle is redundant. This is a run-on sentence:
"We have continuously developed great relationships with our customers, and hope that you will let us, as our slogan says, "make your home more livable."

[*]The blue font begs me to click on it. But it isn't a link.

[*]"Fax: Not Currently Available" is a negative comment. If you don't have a fax, don't say anything.
