    It's decent design,clean and simple to use. But I like it most because of the funny "picture of the week". Overall, I like the structure of the website and also the mascot (it looks great), but the design can still look better with some little changes:
    - remake the navigation bar
    - change the black background behind the sliding images to something brighter or maybe just get rid of it.
    - for the sliding images, instead of using the white background for titles, make them a bit transparent, also changing the green of active image title to blue or red would be better. BTW I think if you stick with black, blue and red colors for the whole website it would be great (to suit your mascot colors)
    - if the main purpose of the website is selling products, then move "Featured Hookah" and "Featured Shishah" upper (instead of "Hookah Wiki Project" and "Our bloggers"
    - for the top right of the website, get rid of "the login in facebook" button. And maybe use better social icons (smaller ones)

    Ok its nice but besides the logo I wasnt certain what the website was offering.

    Take a peek here modernvapor.com, these guys have a cool design happening of tobacco related products.

    I agree with the above poster, if this site is primarily a store, focus more on the products on offer and have the other stuff as a small extra bonus

    Seni, Thanks for the feedback.

    Why did you not like the Facebook login button?

    Looks great. Stays basic but that's what you're after right?

    Incremental upgrades are my favorite thing. We're in November now and I've made yet another update. Comments are welcome :)

    Colours, colours, colours.

    Everything else is great - just make sure every colour means something
    The forum colours are different from the front site

    ...The menu to the right of the logo look great - take your cue from that in terms of font and colour for headings and links
    (great logo btw :D reminded me of hookah bars in Europe ;) )
