I've been working on this site for the past couple of months. The site offers 23 video episodes designed to teach men how to pick up women. Please leave any feedback that you can about the site, it's design, navigation, overall look and feel etc..

Fun site, fun videos! Yay Hoobie!

A couple of problems:

1. Your pop up ad goes under the Flash video in Firefox and Opera, in IE it just triggers an error without displaying.

2. The videos have high production values - that's great - but they suffer in quality because they are displayed a little too large.

Hi Steve;

My first thought is that the site is broken. When I visit the site in Firefox 3, I see a mostly greyed out page with no active links except for a popup ad mostly covered by a video player with a black screen. It's a little disconcerting.

If you fix this it might work well but it's hard to say because I can't really get past the first screen to see your content.

As it stands, it's hard to see how to make a purchase, and it's very difficult to read the information on the site.

Steve,
Overall, pretty good design.
I'm in Firefox 2 and there's gray background and the pop-up ad.
I'd change the color scheme a bit to make the colors less sharp and distracting.
On the home page there's an error at the bottom:
"image=/images/sotg/testimonial.jpg&file=sotg/testimonials/2guys.flv&streamer=rtmpe://peitho.wildrhino.com/securetoken'); swf.write("testimonial1_flash"); // ]]>"
I would notify the users that they need a flash player installed to view the majority of the content.

Other than that it looks very professional.

Hey I like the idea of your website, there were a few problems however.

1. First of all, there's just too much content crammed in to one page, it needs to be more organized, and the home page must always be able to fit within one screen, no scrolling up or down left or right, it just frustrates people, so try to come up with a simple yet interesting home page.

2. Secondly, for some reason at first glance it just doesn't seem like a dating site, but more like a modeling scheme or something, try to capture the essence of your site and put it on your home page, because the idea of this site is great, you now need to keep people's attention.

3. And Finally, you must get a drop bar or navigation tool of some kind, I didn't notice any and it's a bit frustrating when I can't find something I want to see again, easy navigation is key in developing a good website.

Hope my input helps, good luck
