the rectangle with the logo seems much too big, takes up a quarter of the screen for me.

some spelling mistakes

maintaine
centry
your (should be you're)

I like the white on blue, but the menu on the left looks totally out of place, and why the gap at the bottom of the menu.

price list columns don't quite line up.

hope that helps and good luck.

I had a mosy round your site, but steve and kip had pretty much summed up anything I was going to say.

Can see your in the middle of a redesign, you've taken feedback onboard and are reacting to it, good luck to you, I reckon you have the right attitude to make it.

Just checked out Stavros's outfit, can see why he went there, looks clean and mean, you may get some good pointers. Kips site is pretty cool too, good places to get some inspiration.

Keep at it, and report back when you have revamped your site, so we can check it out.

A direct quote from your website:

Quote:
WMS Offer two services to create or maintaine your web site.
If your looking for a new web site to bring your company in to the 21st centry then look no fourther, If its web maintenance for your existing site your looking for then please
Apart from the spelling mistakes - your own design of website flies in the face of what you say on your site.

My advice is at least do a google search for a free website template and replace your own site with it.

As always just my 2 cents!

Just spent 5 minutes watching your fish farting bubbles, love it! As someone that always advises against moving graphics, you have just proved me wrong Tomsk, yours works!

Thanks for the feedback and being kind enough not to point out that most of my links don't work

It's on my every expanding list of things to do.

Default site feedback =o)

Hi Stevie,

No probs, glad to give feedback and hopr it helps with the build process.

Personally I'd like to see your contact details in the Header, tel and email definately, just looks more credible for a fresh new visitor. Maybe the header integrated across the whole of the page across the top.

Also maybe a small bio section about who you are and what you do on the homepage, the normal stuff.

Tel number box on the contact us page and an opt out of mailing list sentence with a tick box if they don't want to be contacted.

Hope this helps,

Cage.

Hi,

Firstly please take it all in a positive light

The site is a bit boring, It has no real value on the homepage other than a header, what is it you do? Scream it to people the first page is your selling platform so use it to your benifit.


A simple and easy on the eye website is key get some cracking sites on there ones you have worked on.
