Would like for y`all to critque my website, Rumpleandtumple.com.  It is a Yahoo Store and I would like to know what can be done to improve it.

 

Thanks

Hi,  I enjoyed your web site.  nice upscale stuff.  Easy to navigate.  Good work!

Nice site! Clean and easy to understand, as well as to navigate. I`m using Firefox, and many images didn`t load. The logo (gif) on the main page was blank, and on the Designers page, none of the images loaded.

To check, I viewed the same page in IE, and the images still didn`t load. So "Just too cute" was a blank box. So too was the Yahoo! logo "Hosting by Yahoo!" And whatever is the image in the middle didn`t have Alt text, so I can`t specify.

But other than that, I liked the site. :-) A bit expensive for my wallet, but there were good descriptions and clear images. Do you have any particular concerns as to what direction you`d like to go with improvements?

I too use Fx to browse the net, don`t know if this is a browser issue because I have not tested your site with IE. In Fx the pages are way out of whack, you need to scroll to the equivalent of 6 browsers in order to view one page the first image gives you an idea, some pages (not all) have the products entirely misaligned like the lamps page. Don`t think this is how your `about us` page was meant to display so I`m including it there as well. Bottom line check your site in all browsers and platforms, otherwise potential customers will be seriously turned off by the amateurish presentation. More often than not folks will think it is not a legitimate business but a fly by nite operator out to scam a few folks.


On a side note, have you actually sold anything at those prices?

Thanks for the critiques.

I assure everyone that my prices are very much in line with my competitors but I admit my products are high end -hand made and painted by artisians.

I am currently developing with Firefox 1.5.  I have made adjustments to my images and overall design of my pages in an effort to improve the quality of the presentation.
