Balmung-San Posted February 12, 2007 Share Posted February 12, 2007 Besides the fact that it's a bit dull, it's also not very unique. It's a slightly modified Dreamweaver template (2 Column Halo Left-Nav if I remember correctly), with a small amount of osCommerce integration tossed in. As well, the osCommerce page doesn't look like the rest of the site. There are also some nasty inconsistencies (spelling?). For example, the osCommerce bit is at the bottom of the index and the osCommerce page, but nowhere else. Also, you can add to the cart from any page, but only view it from the main page. Overall, you should make your own design and fit osCommerce around it, and keep everything consistent from page to page. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
steviewdr Posted February 12, 2007 Share Posted February 12, 2007 Its not too bad - it just looks disjointed and scattered. The "About BGD" is on its own in the middle. The Div on the left is a bit too wide. If you sort that, and bring together the content in the main div - it'd look better. Try limiting the page width to 80% - it might look better. Also - if you sort or style your <h1> and <h2> - it will flow better. -steve Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
eschnell Posted February 12, 2007 Author Share Posted February 12, 2007 The "About BGD" is on its own in the middle. Fixed The Div on the left is a bit too wide. Fixed Try limiting the page width to 80% - it might look better. How do you do that? ??? (2 Column Halo Left-Nav if I remember correctly) You Got It! As well, the osCommerce page doesn't look like the rest of the site. I'm working on changing the osCommerce store and my home pages to look the same and instead of having two sites, i will just have one. There are also some nasty inconsistencies (spelling?). For example, the osCommerce bit is at the bottom of the index and the osCommerce page, but nowhere else. I am horrible at spelling. I put it all into word and got what I could. The only reason I have to osCommerce link on the bottom of the homepage is so I can get some help from them too. Also, you can add to the cart from any page, but only view it from the main page. Fixed Thank's for your help so far.

AXiSS Posted February 14, 2007 Share Posted February 14, 2007 Do I really need to have an animated image tell me what credit cards you accept on the home page? As said before, make the width 80% and center it, that will make it a lot better. I hate looking to the far left of my screen. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

redbullmarky Posted February 14, 2007 Share Posted February 14, 2007 something like: <head> <style type="text/css"> body { margin:0 auto; } #wrapper { width:80%; } </style> </head> <body> <div id="wrapper"> ... everything currently between the body tags goes here </div> </body> Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
eschnell Posted February 14, 2007 Author Share Posted February 14, 2007 I just started accepting credit cards not too long ago, but I am going to replace that. I need to find my camera, and then I will take brand new pictures. Thanks for the help so far Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
worldworld Posted February 14, 2007 Share Posted February 14, 2007 I suppose you must have small font size for the menu list on the left side.. Else is fine.. :) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
