    I like the design and colors used very much. It was a bit slow coming up but not bad for all the graphics that it has. The only thing that I did not like was when I clicked on Products , it took a while for that to come up. All of the other pages came up quickly. Of Course, when I went back to product again, it came right up since it had already been viewed.
    Cheers & Prosperity to you,

    I really like the fonts and the overall design, but you need to move up the body text (ie. "welcome to raw athletics makers of...") so people can see most of it above the fold. You also need to improve the load time; something's making the site lag. Good work though.

    ok, so the homepage has been re-organized but I still don't like it. Any suggestions how I can arrange it to look better? Move something around? Expand something? Add something?

    ya. site is good. but put some high density keywords as title tag for better optimization. also concentrate much on user interaction and make user feel free with links and navigation. but overall its good work. nicely done. keep it up..

    Hi! I like it very much, however, (there is always a however isn't there?) I am trying to figure what to do with the VAPOR FRESH order now section. It is foreign to the page. We need to keep the eye flowing in it. It needs some red (any of the values that you have in the page, maybe the same value you have in the words "read more testimonials". You need to play around with it because you want that buy now section to stand out but you need it to tie in as well. It is a fine threshold to meet. I think maybe I would try by putting that red value where the Gold is on the letters "Vapor fresh" then pick it up again where the line is to replace the Gold at the top of the blue oblong box is with the text in it and then a third place (keep the eye flowing with color in three places) is ... is it possible to have a soft transparent red glow when you hover over the "buy now" button . Where the blue gray is when you hover, make it a red gray as you have in the football. Give it the same transparent Glow, but tied in by the red color. This is very difficult because it is such a fine line. But this has to be pulled together by color.

    But, I think whay you don't like is that the total blue section looks foreign. So, those are some ideas.

    Oh! and if there is a way to move it up on the page also., the only thing with that is the Rule is to work in 1/3rds never exactly 1/2 or in the middle.

    I just quickly noticed on page PRODUCTS on this same vapor fresh design....

    the flowing line above the words "play hard , finish fresh" make that line a gradation of the value of the RA Logo to tie it in. and maybe again in the line above the "Sport Equipment cleaning "

    Hope this helped.
    Cheers,
    Elaine

    So you think if content was covering the football player, it would be ok? I just don't like how the content is arranged on the home page.

    I like the football player He is getting all sweaty YET is Fresh. Just need to pull the color of the buy now section together with the other. I am assuming you read my other post.
