    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.

    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.

    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.

    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.

    Maybe try Neowin, they have a request area...

    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:

    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,
    The Day The Earth
    Stood Still Original 27x40
    Single Sided Movie
    Poster
    $39.99
    is too much info and takes valuable room from the thumbnail image.

    And the top logo should also be a link to the index page.

    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).
