Mark,

I really liked your colour scheme, logo and graphics. Very pleasant to look at and I think I got the concept quickly by the picture and was relieved to land on a pleasant site.

But, I'm not so sure about the main/sub header text and Step by Step arrangement. I think the main header "Send your message...." and sub header "Add your message....", very quickly sum up what your about and should have more prominance. As it is, it was one of the last things I read on the page. Not that my eye scanning is representative, just one eyeball's view.

I think the Step by Step is a little misleading. I was trying to click on Step 1, then click Step 2, to get going (I'm a little slow). I was like hey, "This isn't step by step", I need to go to the side bar and I can do all these steps in One step by just filling in a form.

I love the step by step for complicated form submittal, but you've really got such a quick process that I think it would be better to just say "We can personalize any of our products on the left and ship today!" My bad copy, but maybe you get the idea.

I might be a little dim though, and most folks might get the idea quicker and go the left menu bar to start shopping. Maybe, actually just a little bit less content and navigation. There's a lot going on, but it does appear to work since the graphics get the idea accross clearly what it's all about.

I'm also looking for some feedback to my site posted the day after yours.

Cheers,

James

Thank you James, for you kind review.

Would anyone else like to add to this?

I love the idea - I've never seen such a thing. It's a nice, clean site and easy to navigate. I especially like the, "Men's Guide to Flowers" and "Rose Colour Meanings" sections because they're unique and useful.

Nice logo and overall look. Could think about reducing the size of all the bigger roses shown. Could take the first row of roses up besides the logo to save on space after reducing the size of the image.

Make sure the doctype is the first line in the HTML.

Could increase the size of the "Shop by Occasion:" links.

Otherwise overall a nice site. Also interesting rollover images incorporating the logo. A few changes and you have a really good site. Cheerio and all the best!
