Ecommerce Site Selling Men's Shirts

The design of the site needs a lot of work. The graphic quality is poor and it doesn't really present a professional appearance. The colour scheme is okay, and I don't mind those glossy buttons but overall it doesn't work well together. The brown drawing in the header is really out of place.

Some of the wording on this site is really strange. THe products have odd names (Hockey Roll???) and the descriptions often contain strange wording ("neatly sown plane wear"???).

The product pages are okay but there could be some more description and better photos. In eCommerce bigger photos are always better. Provide as much detail as possible. The "Add to cart" and "Buy now" buttons are both doing the same thing so they don't both need to be there. It might be nice to make that a little more prominent. Locating it under the product description might be better. Think of how people are going to read the site. They'll look at the pictures, then read the information. When they get to the end of the text, there's the buy now button!

Brown "path" in top header doesn't bother me as far as color scheme but I don't get it. Why is it such an erratic line? Does it represent something? The shape may have some meaning which would be good but since it is not identifiable, I picture it as childish and in turn your site is branded as unprofessional. Also with the header, I see it changes color but then it just stops. Why not make the color changes more gentle and loop it.

Logo:Can't read it. Red text with a black border is a killer, made worse over the brown background. Make the text larger and more contrasting. Don't need the border either and don't be afraid to have the words overlap the shirt. In fact, replace the photographic image of a shirt with a simple shirt graphic (like just the shape). Simple. Bold.

If you learn nothing else from this post, thumbnail images MUST be resized versions of the larger image and not simply the same graphic resized by the html code. The blue shirt on the home page took 10 seconds to load on broad band because it is over a meg in size. I viewed the graphic by itself and as expected is was over 294,000 pixels. Always make thumbnail graphics the size you want displayed and then link them to the larger but separate version.

Also, something is messed up with your profile button when you try to click on it.

I my self am trying to sell apparel online, well mainly t shirts an other stuff thats why i clicked on youre thread.

and here it goes...

i would say youre page still needs a little work, i like the color scheme. i'd definetley keep that, and its obvious youre page is still under construction. but one thing that i would think is a mandatory change is to change the image header. i dont know why. for some reason thats the important part of a website for me. is to have a nice simple but attractive image header. your current one just isnt sellin me anything. its too plain in my opinion. ( not trying to bring you down ) just my opinion.

one more thing. the navigation buttons orange isnt workin for me there either. maybe get a darker shade of tan r a light brown? w/e u think is best. just surf the web take a look at the compeditor's i'm not saying copy their idea but use it to just get the idea what will work best for youre page. just look at some and think about what you liek about the page. or just what you dont liek and dont make their mistakes. think about what u'd like what would be convienent for you as a customer.

i dunno thats all i got to say pretty much hope this helped. and good luck and

if you can give me soem feedback on my page that be great. thanx.
