Is this website ready for action?

Hi Warriors.

I have been working away on a site and the products in it that I want to offer.

It now has an Opt-In and an Affiliate Program. My Opt-In is based upon an Autoresponder I have sitting on the site and not aweber or getresponse, so I don't have to pay out additional funds each month for it.

The graphics and other parts took me a bit of time to get everything together.

This is the most complex site I have made in a while.

I would like to know what you think about it. Have any suggestions before I start pushing it out to the general public.

Any comments would be greatly appreciated.

The link is in my signature. It is the Work-At-Home-Toolbox one.

    I see my post is being read, but not a single comment... Does anyone have any suggestions on how I can improve my site and the offer on it?

      Well, personally, it just got boring scrolling down forever, looking at product after product... in the same container, with the page flipping up.

      BUT, I didn't come to the site "interested" (wasn't clicking it because I thought it would interest me -- like from an ad click -- but to critique it), so maybe your targeted visitors will have more patience.

      And then, after the 33rd product, I realize it's only $14 some odd dollars. I sort of felt compelled to buy but questioned the quality of the products. Then, you said "buy now before I sober up!" -- just didn't sit well with me, probably because I'm used to it?

      Otherwise, it looked nice. I like the color of your background (sorry, can't post link yet... Google "pepfx webdesign colors"). It's a tealish/light blue + light green color.
      "[green] durability, reliability, safety, honesty, optimism, harmony, freshness
      [blue] depth, stability, professionalism, loyalty, reliability, honor, trust"

      To me, it looked calm, trustworthy and instilled 'authority' to an extent.

      Just my opinion/$0.02 USD

      edit: I didn't take time to review much else because I'm trying to keep watch on the weather. I'll look over it again in a sec.

    I agree a bit with Jesse, in that I'm not one to scroll down passed more than 2 or 3 "freebies" but since this is a design area, and I am a designer I will make a few comments on that, hehe.

    The header is ok, but doesn't fade very well on the right side. (the dad/son blending with... is that money, or green shrubbery?) It is B- material, which is not really a bad thing. It's all relative I suppose.

    The rest of the site blends well and is not distracting or clashing. Which is quite amazing sense there are a bazzillion offers included. One more thing on this, and I don't mean this to sound racist, but the left corner asian lady does not do much for me. But you didn't tell us your target market for this product... To clarify a bit more.. in this day and age, the U.S. economy "dont take kindly to strangers" or in other words, likes homegrown business before overseas.

    magicash.... I may not feel the same way as you do about this, but I did change the Affiliate Program graphic in the corner. If someone finds something offensive with your site, no matter the reason, it is best to just change it.

    I live in Texas right now, but have lived over in Asia before and I can tell you it is not a lot of roses in that part of the world right now either.

    I hope you will head back over to the site and tell me what you think of it now!

    Thanks for the comments.

    OK, I made some of those changes that were mentioned here in the the PM's you guys and gals sent me.

    Thanks for the comments.

    Would be nice if you could take one more run at the site and let me know if it is better now...

    Thanks.

    This site has a long homepage. I have to scroll it. I think, you should part it into some pages and crate a menu.
