    Hello all,

    Here is brand-new site of mine. I'd appreciate any feedback.
    http://www.worldjewelryguide.com

    The left-hand navigation is my main concern. Is it intuitive enough? I haven't populated many categories yet, so try 'Rings' to test. Would it be useful to display the number of items available next to the category?

    Also, how is the look and feel? This is a variation of another of my sites: http://www.worldgemguide.com. Is there anything better on that one?

    A few things are not working, such as the search, and many categories are still empty. Let me know if you find any bugs.

    Thanks a lot for help!

    Ty

    yeah, you need to change the style of the left navigaion bar, but overall its good.

    is your site for 1024x768+ monitors???? I think you need to NOT exclude the 800x600 also

    align the whole page to center, users are used to it

    I think you need to change the blue of links onmouseover

    regards and good luck

    What changes would you recommend for the left-hand nav?

    Yes, the site is for 1024. I will see if I can squeeze it and fit 800 x 600. I'll work on the centering.

    Is the blue too much? Should it be another color or something more subtle?

    Thanks for the input,
    Ty

    I think the site is nice.

    The site is a good idea. Do you earn off of referrals?

    well actually about blue, you could add some simple effect and it would look nicer, something like underline + overline,

    about the left handside its nice but you should remove the blue BG
