    Hello everyone!

    I just pretty much finished up a new company of mine. This website took my forever to put together... but finally I have it up and running!

    Take My Mac

    What do you all think?

    All kind comments are appreciated, thank you!

    nice..

    should have something focused in the front page, something like hot news or latest product, for eye-catcher.

    Thank you!
    Since there is going to be new iPod releases, there will definitely be some news on there, like on the slider on the home page.

    Any other suggestions?

    Great Website. I thought it was very well organized and easy to look at.

    the only thing I saw that stuck out was the repeat use of sell in your footer menu. I think that is a damper on the amazing design of the site. Instead of having that maybe you could put a drop down menu, or something of that nature and then just simple footer links. That is my opinion.

    But other than that great job!

    Best Regards,
    Nick

    Great website But I noticed the site is only to sell what do you do with the items? how do they get the cash from the items?
    Great idea

    I unfortunately don't know how to change those footers into drop down menus... but I can try to eliminate the word "Sell" to make everything more seamlined for those links. Thank you for the kind compliments and the advice!

    With these devices, we either provide them to schools or businesses as affordable solutions to upgrading technology, completely recycle devices that have little to no value, or try to find a new home for them where they can be fully reused.
    People who sell their Apple devices are paid either through Paypal or check. Lots of these questions are located on the FAQ page on the website under the "About Us" tab.

    I love this site. I think you've done a great job.

    Only comment was that when I looked it was very slow to load, and it wasn't the fault of my internet.

    Hi yessac81!

    Thank you!
    Sometimes it is slow... I agree. Sometimes it can be fast too.
    I added a cache plugin to hopefully speed some things up!

    And Borduhh, I just took out all of the "sell" words! I hope that looks a bit better. :cool:

    Two thoughts. I would slow down the scrolling of the thing at the top. It scrolls so fast that you can't always read it. When I first looked at it I of course had no idea that it was going to scroll, and suddenly it was gone. You might give it a couple more seconds before it scrolls to the next.

    I would have what you have in the footer in the top menu bar instead and have drop downs from the menu if you want. Or the different categories could be handled on the next page.

    It will be seen much more easily at the top, so it will be much more intuitive when someone looks at your site.

    Oh I was going to say that your theme may not support drop down menus but there are themes that do.

    Hi cougar,

    Thanks for continuing to give me constructive advice. It is very helpful!
    I changed the slideshow to add a couple seconds more so it doesn't move so fast.
    For the top nav, I will add what I have at the bottom also to the top so it is easier for users to navigate the site.
