    I had someone design it for me though if that's okay. Not really happy with it but it's at least easy to use.

    Thanks

    The header design is quite outdated.. all I can really reccommend is a completely new design that's more modern and web 2.0

    For the site, try adding a colored background (even if its grey) so they site doesn't look so bare.

    Thanks. I was never really happy with it so I'm now shopping for a new designer.

    As others have said, the site does look dated. I would put this down to the template using tables instead of CSS positioning (i.e. it looks blocky.)

    The header graphic is okay. Like okdde I've seen much worse, but I've also seen better. It's merely average.

    Javascript and CSS styling is currently inline rather than in external files. This combined with the table structure won't do you any favours in the search engines.


    Something like http://www.freecsstemplates.org/preview/integral may look quite nice. It would need a bit of tweaking since it's a bit blog-like but it gives you a starting point.

    it's a nice simple site but there's no pizazz. by the way, where are you getting your inventory from?

    I'm trying leave a post in the Contests Forum and see if someone could help me for a price but I can't post in that thread. Any idea what I need to do so I can post there? My site needs a redo quick :D

    Indeed a very outdated form of webdesign.
