Please take a look at my site. It is fully operational at this point but I would like any constructive criticism from this forum. Most of the content needs to be fleshed out so bear with me.

I've made several usability changes to the backend code. The login looks and works more like the Amazon login. I'm going to work on the checkout procedure because it just doesn't feel right to me.

Thanks

Your header.php says "Free Shipping within the US!*" but I don't see the small print to go with that *.

I want to buy a futon mattress for the den, but I don't really want to create an account to find out shipping details. Didn't see the special offer on your shipping info page either.

check your spelling should read "Occasional"

otherwise excellent!

I like the tabs at the top, makes navigation really easy. Is that a contribution? I'd love to do the same to my site.

Site looks very good, clean and easy to navigate.

Actually pretty easy - code below. Just have to make the seperate tab images in Gimp.
Adapt to your particular needs and just #include where you want it to be.

<?php
echo '<map name="map">';
echo '<area shape="rect" coords="8,5,51,19" alt="Home Page" href="' . tep_href_link(FILENAME_DEFAULT,'') . '"/>';
echo '<area shape="rect" coords="63,2,106,21" alt="Dining Room Furniture" href="' . tep_href_link('index.php','cPath=24') . '" />';
echo '<area shape="rect" coords="120,2,159,21" alt="Sofa Sets" href="' . tep_href_link('index.php','cPath=27') . '" />';
echo '<area shape="rect" coords="171,1,219,21" alt="Bedroom Furniture" href="' . tep_href_link('index.php','cPath=32') . '" />';
echo '<area shape="rect" coords="227,2,281,21" alt="Occassional Tables" href="' . tep_href_link('index.php','cPath=28') . '" />';
echo '<area shape="rect" coords="289,2,341,21" alt="Futons" href="' . tep_href_link('index.php','cPath=29') . '" />';
echo '</map>';

$newcpath = ($HTTP_GET_VARS['cPath']);

$postab = strpos($newcpath, '_');

if ($postab > 0) {
$newcpath = substr(($HTTP_GET_VARS['cPath']),0, $postab);
}

switch ($newcpath) {

case '28' : echo tep_image(DIR_WS_IMAGES . 'tab_tables_over.gif', HEADER_TITLE_LOGOFF,'','','usemap="#map"'); break;
case '24' : echo tep_image(DIR_WS_IMAGES . 'tab_dining_over.gif', HEADER_TITLE_LOGOFF,'','','usemap="#map"');break;
case '32' : echo tep_image(DIR_WS_IMAGES . 'tab_bedroom_over.gif', HEADER_TITLE_LOGOFF,'','','usemap="#map"');break;
case '29' : echo tep_image(DIR_WS_IMAGES . 'tab_futons_over.gif', HEADER_TITLE_LOGOFF,'','','usemap="#map"');break;
case '27' : echo tep_image(DIR_WS_IMAGES . 'tab_sofa_over.gif', HEADER_TITLE_LOGOFF,'','','usemap="#map"');break;
default: if (($PHP_SELF != '/index.php') && (!isset($newcpath))) {
echo tep_image(DIR_WS_IMAGES . 'tab_home_default.gif', HEADER_TITLE_LOGOFF,'','','usemap="#map"');
} elseif (($PHP_SELF = '/index.php') && (isset($newcpath))){
echo tep_image(DIR_WS_IMAGES . 'tab_home_default.gif', HEADER_TITLE_LOGOFF,'','','usemap="#map"');
}
elseif ($PHP_SELF = '/index.php') {
echo tep_image(DIR_WS_IMAGES . 'tab_home_over.gif', HEADER_TITLE_LOGOFF,'','','usemap="#map"');
}
}
?>

Thanks for all the reviews. I'm aware it's not all finished yet. Nothing like my comcast cable going out the day I upload my web site. Been twiddling my thumbs for two days waiting for it to come back up. Have to get a cheap dial-up service as backup I suppose.

Nice layout and use of color did you do it yourself...if so congrats I would think a graphic designer worked on the color scheme. Hard to use colors properly but you nailed it. With a few minor adjustments here and there and its Gold!
