Yet another "Please Critique My Web Site" post!

I think the top banner would look better if it were in the center of the page.
The little picture to the right at the top of the page with the tap I would just get rid of as it just dose not really seem to look good.

As you go down the page the text is all placed to the left side of the page, leaving a great big white space. The information should be more in the center of the page as it would look better.

Robinsden, I agree about the text needing to be centered. I am using a Template which is set up with CSS and I don't know CSS, only some html so I have not been able to figure out how to change it so that it goes to the center of the page. Is there some code anyone can give me here or point me to instructions for as to how to make the page open so that it fits the size of any screen in their browser?

Interesting that you don't like the little faucet, I've gotten positive comments about that. ;-) I will wait and see how others respond to that. Thanks much for your comments!

I would lose the green theme color. Green speaks more of forests and trees than water. I would use either white or a blue color that looks clean and pure. Whenever you're thinking water, you think pure.

I've only taken a quick look, but I see that although the site has an external style sheet, you've got a lot of styles on the pages. I'd move them to the style sheet if I were you.

For example I noticed this with the h1 tags which you've styled separately, i.e. <h1class="style36">.

This could have an impact on the rating since it may dilute your keyword density.

Wow, back to the 90s. Very very outdated design. Sorry if that sounds rude
The animated faucet is awful!
Drop the feedjit thing, nobody cares who else is visiting your site.
Your text is too many different colours.
The template doesn't stretch with that page - probably because it was built in 1999 when we were all viewing at 640x480 :p
Your landing page needs to have a very prominent, professional looking link to the shop page. Thats where your money is, so it needs to be very very easy to find.

If you're interested in updating to a modern design, please contact me.

Okay, I made some changes:
I made the fonts more uniform on the home page- at least all the same font, now, though a few different sizes and emphases...

I got rid of the little moving faucet gif in the top right (Even though I liked it, 2 here didn't so I took that into consideration).

I added a line in red in the top middle of the home page that says "

as someone suggested that I need a way for them to get to the money page easily and quickly.

I want to change the background colors of the menu and header to blue instead of green but I need to figure out how to get little blue rectangles of that size to replace the green ones with. What's the easy way of getting plain rectangle .gif's of the size and color I want?

I tried to change the Centering of the header at the top of the page so that the little butterfly and name would be centered but I couldn't figure out how to do it. Will ask the tech support of the web template co. and see if they can tell me...

Anyway, as time permits, and as I gain the necessary knowledge, I will make these changes and a few other changes suggested, throughout the site.

As to the template looking too sixties, I don't know about that but I like it pretty well so am not looking to change the whole site's design.

I think the main thing is to be in the "ball park" of a decent looking site. But it doesn't have to win any design awards, it just has to look professional, which is the main thing I am trying to achieve, and hope I have achieved, at least enough that someone would not leave the site because of the design or look of it.

I was able to make the text go all the way across my screen now. I wonder how it will look on smaller and bigger screens...?

I think the very most important thing is that it is SEO'd well.

As to getting opinions re on-page SEO should I ask that in the SEO forum or in this one? It involves web design but it has more to do with the code and keywords more than with colors, fonts, and the overall "look".

Anyway thanks for the design tips and I will continue to work on making the fonts more uniform throughout the site and etc. Is there a way to code the page to automatically adjust to the size of one's display? That is possible, isn't it?

Do not underline words that are not links. If you're gonna post a huge chunk of links among texts, Make them in different shades of colour. The top right gif does not make the site look professional. Especially with the black border. Classify your menubar into deeper categories for example: Home| Buy More | Fruits (and inside fruits) - Apples, Bananas, Oranges. Make your images with white in them, transparent. Make your buy buttons more prominent. Fix your menubar. It expands on some pages due to your text.

There are alot of issues and stuffs to fix. You should perhaps, use a wordpress theme.

If I were you I'd go to Themeforest.net, get one of the beautiful wordpress themes there and migrate the data over. Will take a while but will make your site much better.

Reason being the foundation or core structure of the site is out of date and is at the stage where starting afresh will be quicker than fixing what's there.

For me, too many "click here" style links - screams of a typical site from 1998 to me

As do the color scheme for the design and text unfortunately.

Granted, you may be getting visitors, but I imagine with a site like (that doesn't give an amazing first impression) that you're getting a fairly high bounce rate.

I also think the banner is too tall - maybe decrease the size of that a little.
