Default I like it!

Great work! I like the site.

I was looking at the code and a couple of things
"hit" me.

1 - You have a link to an external style sheet and you
also have styles specified in your html. Maybe put it
all in your external style sheet?

2 - You have some scripts going on... that may not be
needed - if you they are for your navigation mouseovers.
That can be accomplished without Java using CSS.

Again... good job!!!

A deceptively simple site, hides a combination of FrontPage includes, an iframe, and a PHP powered store with a JavaScript controlled interface. Nicely restrained color scheme, gives the necessary soothing ambience. I didn't quite get the connection with the waterfalls.. but they're nice pictures anyway! :c)

I would consider replacing the top left image with a distinctive logo; this would certainly help make your site more memorable. The store seems to be well organised into different product areas and works well. One message did popup at one stage, informing me that clicking the "Back" button might empty my shopping cart - which it did, by the way!

My main observation regarding the store, was that the product images themselves are a bit muddy looking, and consequently not that visually appealing. I'm not suggesting that you pay a fortune for a professional photographer, but with the quality of digital cameras these days, I'm sure a friend might be able to help you take some better looking closeups of your products.

All in all, a nicely designed site, I wish you lots of luck!

Paul

Default Oh yes, images

I forgot to mention it... and after reading
Paul's post, I remembered.

RE: your product images. I suggest cropping/resizing
a few of them. Like the shampoo ones that have one bottle in the pic. Most of the pic is "wasted" background,
if it was cropped to fit the bottle... the viewer could
see the bottle better.

Nice clean functional site. I like the colours but im not too sure on the waterfall pic on the top left, maybe have that as a faded background image somewhere as I think it is too dominent on the page. I agree with the others on the product images, they need to clearer and in better proportion, crop the space around the product. The shop is easy to use and straight forward. A Good site I think, good luck with it :-)

Default Site review

I think Your site is great. It is simple, easy to use, there are no unneccessary elements on the page, so it can be downloaded very fast, and that it is very important.
I agree that your product images are should be better. The customer would like to see what she is buying, I think.
The colors are OK.
The waterfall on the top is nice. :)
