    Please review www.primitivesupply.com

    It is very manly and men should grow a few chest hairs from just viewing it.

    :)

    looks cool - ill tell you what i would do. i would add a texture to that brown area on the right - i would move the left side so it had no space at the top or on the left - and angle the spears up straighter. but its cool

    It is a very good design. It loads a bit slow because of the images.
    The text above the M shaped thing shouldn't be the same color if you want it to stand out and easier to read.

    Cool collection of images, looks great. But your site is loading at the left side of the browser (FF 3.1), try to move it center.

    Can you make the images smaller? Try turning them into .gif images with photo filtre (it's freeware). Or if you have some professional tool then go for it :)

    I will try to comment or reply in this message to all of you. And THANKS for looking and helping!!!

    We are still tweaking on the images. We really don't want to compromise the images.

    The M thing??? The Slingshot??? That is an actual picture of his slingshot that we are using as the Y.

    We left aligned it because of the spears. The site is already VERY picture heavy so we reduced wherever we could.

    We are optimizing with Photoshop. GIF is for graphics/text. JPG is for images.

    Thank you so much!

    Love the design. It loaded fast for me. The logo is sweet with the sling shot. When I get more time, I'm going to browse around the content as this sort of thing has always interested me.

    A few thoughts:

    On the About You, I'd like to see a single photo of you.

    Are you offering training? Was not clear on what you were offering or how to get it. What would you like me to do when visiting the site?

    Some of the photos could be a higher resolution quality.

    Best to you

    I love it. I wouldn't change a thing, except keep adding content. Very manly indeed. I felt a few new chest hairs pop up as I browsed. I like the whole hunter-gatherer approach. It appeals to my basic instincts.

    That is a very good design indeed, and it appears to be very quick loading for those of us still stuck in the realms of 2mb connections. I like it alot and the only thing id change is the drop down menu's and maybe texture the dark brown area too.
