Kremoya online shop, http://kremoya.net ,  is built on the osCommerce 2.3.X series. It features a responsive framework, checkout funnel, and multilingual switching between English and Spanish, including banner areas which change on language switch.

No real changes were done to the banner manager, just simply appended . $language to the end of the banner name. At first I used a fall back, if the banners defined language did not exist, then load banner without any language extension.  However, that is an expensive way to serve  banners, so to cut down on queries I just added the language name to the end of each banner group. (come to think of it, I may have increased the length of the banner_group column)

Another feature I'd like to point out is the responsive design. No fancy mobile detection scripts, or tons of extra files - responsive design comes with its own heavier than usual features as it is, no need wasting server space and resources, not to mention the extra file maintance.  Certian things hide when in mobile view, while other things load.

The checkout funnel, as I coined it, is simply a reduced checkout procedue that starts on the shopping cart page

Shopping_cart > Login/create accout > shipping and billing > confirm

No side columns, no distractions. Simply a full page view with each element structured in a way that is easy to follow, and loads in good order in smaller screens as well.

As well as the standard login/create account, the customer has an option to use facebook or goolgle to login, or continue on as a guest.

All suggestions are appreciated.
