PLEASE CRITIQUE MY SITE. foggythecloud.com  Thanks. foggy

I wouldn`t put "foggythecloud.com" at the top ... just the actual name.

Take out this:
It`s copyright 2006 Jack Rodney. (no rhyme here--sorry)

"CLICK HERE" is always a bad idea.

Link the book covers.
Describe them a bit better.
The huge images with a list of CLICK HEREs at the bottom is really not helpful.
Your fonts and pictures don`t have to be that large.

To start ...

Nikole`s said it all. Make the DVD images clickable, and put in a menu bar to the left instead of the "click here for this or that extra information."

As for clicking AGAIN to see this information, that`s not good. AND I don`t want to have to download something unless it`s a video or a music clip. I tried the example about a story, and canceled out of it. I hate downloading written materials from a site unless it`s a PDF whitepaper I need for research.

Put up the examples of the book or story in Web-type code so I can see it just with a click. Also, I`d like to see some prices.

:-) And what`s a logosphere? How come it`s there, and can I click on it and have an adventure?

The primary question I have is review for what - with the best possible intentions, I would point everyone in the direction of two great topics started on "how to get a good critique" (hint: takes more than simply saying - critique my website):

from hdean
and from iouone2

I bet you have a cool story behind the whole purpose of the Foggy character and the idea for the website.  You should write up a quick intro detailing your story and what compelled you to create the site and the CD`s.  Put that on your homepage for sure.

I think if you follow some of the advice above you`ll be a lot better.  Not to hurt your feelings but I think your site could benefit from some professional help.  I imagine you did it yourself and, for a first effort, it`s ok.  Since you`re trying to sell music, i`d compare your site to some of the other musicians/etc. sites.  If necessary, I`d consider hiring someone who designs sites profesionally to work in it some.  If you went to elance.com (or maybe through sun) you might be able to find someone who would do it inexpensively.
