    sorry to say mate , but your website doesnt interest me at all

    your website s main page should display category of products you are selling , user should not have to look around more to get what products you are selling , and you need to add images of the products which you are selling also

    i ll advise to use a Site building software like dreamweaver or some script
    and you can also add a Favicon for your website :)

    Website is very simple and has a pure design! I like header image and horizontal menu! Background color doesn't look very good! The information is not structured at a webpage properly and text is not readable! Website has no logo! Yellow Google block doesn't look very well! It is better to locate in another place at webpage! I would advise you to create a professional website design to make a good impression on users and succeed in online business!

    my friend is thinking of restarting the whole look of the site, what do you think guys? is that the better option? or should he just have it redesign? need your opinion or comments guys.

    Your jpegs are distored. When I went to products and prices to see what was there, I seen 3 images that are blurry. Try coding actual takes into the site rather than the images. This way when prices change you only have to change the price of that product rather than removing the old image and uploading another.

    Okay, here's my recommendations:

    1) Let's get the obvious and unimportant out of the way - free hosting = ads on top of screen = ugly = people won't take it seriously. I will assume however that the page is still in "beta" more or less, and that your friend intended to pay for hosting before going "public".

    2) The top bar graphic is fine, although I dislike the font used for "EbuyLoad.info" - I'd play with some others.

    3) The tabs menu are ugly. Those tabs seem to extend too far upward, and it creates an awkward look - If you could round them out a bit lower in that bar, they'd look much nicer. It kind of feels like the tabs are bigger than what you're showing, and the top of them was chopped off.

    4) The graphic "ebuyprod2_8j3j_1ve1" (blue box, bottom left) is of terribly low quality and looks bad, lowers the perceived value of your site. Get a better version of that graphic or just recreate the graphic in an HTML table.

    The frame itself and background color are nice, but the graphical issues mentioned above cheapen your site. Luckily all of those things are just tweaks, and will greatly improve the way your page looks when you take the time to tighten them up.

    Good luck!

    As a newbie the site looked like a good start to building before lauching for real. Some of the colors, blue background with black was hard to read. Images need some help and the product line was confusing for me. The banner graphic on home page was super. You can get there with some more work. Good luck

    Something to me screams that it is just too simple. Needs some more cleaning. Graphic/color coordination is in order.
