Re: Electrix World - Online Retailer

design looks nice, XHTML and CSS validate, no tables. perfect. the only thing i would like is to have a little rollover for the tabs. maybe just have text-decoration:underline; on hover?

Hi cloudedvision

Many thanks for the feedback, really appreciate it. All taken on board and will make changes accordingly. Would it be a site that if you saw for the first time you would buy from? What would you give it overall out of 10?

Re: Electrix World - Online Retailer

you have a lot of space to play with, everything seems a little squashed.

a little spacing around the products, and the left and right columns would help this site a lot.

from a sales point of view, it is very difficult to know where to look first. this is down to the "bunching" but also because nothing draws my eye. the banner at the top needs to be more focused and a differenct colour to really punch out that product to the customer.

Re: Electrix World - Online Retailer

The rounded corners on your view full details tabs are really choppy, I guess its just a pet peeve of mine but I would definitely re-do those to make them smooth like the rounded corners on your navigation tabs.

Just my 2 bits.

Re: Electrix World - Online Retailer

Hi guys

Thank you ever so much for your feedback. I guess they are minor things that can get changed easily. Thanks once again for the feedback.

Re: Electrix World - Online Retailer

The rounded corner on the bottom left of the site is not working, just noticed that.

Like the coding, valid code, good use of CSS for layout, nice work

One thing, the H1 tag is meant to give a description of your site, and you are only meant to have on per page, i would change yours to a H2 tag.

Other than that good site, nice design, good job

Craig

Re: Electrix World - Online Retailer

The design looks good, another color other than blue for the right column will be better.

Hi Susana

Thank you for taking the time in looking at our website. Thank you also for the feedback. It will be taken on board and we will make changes to the site accordingly.

Would it be a website that you would purchase from? Taking into consideration that you have never heard of the company before?

Thanks

Re: Electrix World - Online Retailer

This is a well designed web site, with pleasing colors, good graphic, easy navigaions, consistent font choices, and clear instructions.
However, I do have one suggestion to make. In the home page, you should add a "Add to Basket" button below each product under the New Releases Section. This
would make it easier for a user who knows the product and wants to make an immediate purchase from your web site.
