Very nice looking site and i know it is not the product image but it is kind of slow loading ( almost 20 sec with cable modem for a full loaded on a clean cache)

Regards

hi... nice site, it's kind of osc standard but really nice...

the only problem that i found on your site that all your products have the same picture.. and it's kind of boring to see the same exact picture all over the site.. i realized what you are selling, but you should try to change a little your pictures

cheers

Nice site Farrukh,

one thing about the banner.. , I use 1600*1200, and viewing the page full screen I see a big blue gap between the tower an the dune.
The tower is a transparent gif and the dune image is right aligned, I would consider to apply the background image to both cells.

heh yeah.. I also experience that large blue gap.

to prevent this I would recommend using absolute values instead of percentages.

other than the large iamges, it is a very nice looking site
