Im just looking for opinions on the design and layout of this site. If you saw it and were into the product would you make a purchase from us?
Is the Logo to bland, flashy, is the layout clean?
Is the site loading fast on your connection?
I thank you all in advance im working on this for a client.
thanks

Looks fine to me, only two things I don't like.
1. Flashy logo distracted me from reading the opening text
2. Total price doesn't display if you add an obscene number of items to the basket. I'm actually suprised it let me put 2x10^102 items into my basket.
do you think i should just shut off the flashing? i was able to put 1000 items in my cart without a hitch what webbrowser are you using/
if any of you photoshop gurus are up for it if youd like to submit a new logo for my site ill send you a free samurai sword if i choose it.
I didn't like the flashing either, it was distracting. And this might just be me but I like the thumbnails a little bigger when it's pictures or art. They lose a little of their selling power if you can't really see the detail. I'd rather have less per page and bigger pictures.
What 228 said. Kill flashing, bigger thumbs.
Yeah, your latest products are like eighty items, limit it to a certain amount and then make the thumbnails bigger.
If that logo was an actual physical object I'd tell you to burn it.
Also, I don't know what I'd do with that center section above the latest products, but I'd change it somehow.
how does the logo look now? http://www.flixmovieposters.com
It's 100 times better, but I'd still have a professional logo made.
I wish I could come up with an analogy, but having a professional logo will make all the difference.
yeah the logo is only temporary i slapped it up there because before it just said "your site" out of the box for this cart and it is getting traffic already and even a few sales so i wanted something up there for the time being, if nobody on spurstalk comes forward with my offer ill bug my gf whos a graphic artist but too busy right now
I think that will do for now, try to get something in the next week or so.
Maybe try Neowin, they have a request area...
bigger thumbs.
Just FYI, you spelled "Original" wrong in the main text.

Thanks Kori. I actuall know how to spell it but when you type near 100 wpm.... :)
If it was my website, I'd find use hoverboxes to magnify the image the mouse is currently over. See the link below for an example of what I mean:Quote:

It looks pretty easy to implement in your stylesheets, and the result looks very professional IMO.

Also, there's way too much text...
For example,
is too much info and takes valuable room from the thumbnail image.Quote:

css and stylesheets are not my thing, its a bit over my head but thats a cool little script

Personally, I like the layout; it's organized and the page loads quickly (don't be tempted to use Flash later on). The things that I don't like:
-- The logo. I know you're working on it, and I know designing logos usually takes time, but you should re-think it. Something more "polished" or "professional" (especially since it's a commercial site).
-- The Welcome to FlixMoviePosters paragraph seems out of place to me. It's using up valuable space, especially at the top, where you can place more thumbnails. I would recommend editing it, shortening it, and moving it somewhere less "in your face" (possibly into one of the side columns or next to the logo at the top). Basically, think of ad copy: short and to the point, and use the About Us page for a detailed description (at the moment it's kind of empty too).
I think it looks professional. I'd buy stuff from it.
Tell your girlfriend not to quit her day job.
Thats pretty funny she gets paid thousands of dollars by firms to do stuff for them it was one concept she came up when she was dead tired at like 5 am.
Ill agree it wasn't her best work but she definitely should not quit her day job it pays lots of billls around here :)
