Tell me what you think (websight)

Looks like a generic Hotel website that he changed the text on to fit your shop....your logo looks out of place...I would go to a content management website and have a pro put you one together...this will let you update,add, and delete content without having to be a website guru...With this website you are going to be stuck with whatever he gives you..search for "joomla" and i think there are some other windows cms's that are good also... I have set up a few joomla websites for people and they love being able to edit their own content..

but anyways thats my 2 cents on it

Took too long to load, most people will give up. Screw the flash.

Horrible backround music

Flash is a waste of time, people want to get straight to what they are looking for

Shitty logo

solution: fire your website designer, and restart

That's why I ask you guys. Thanks for the input so far.

I really don't care for it either. I am going to forward this to him. I have been arguing flash from day 1. He says it looks more professional and I don't agree. Keep it coming

this is what I use to design any website I do..

adobe photoshop and notepad. That's it. If he has to use flash, he needs to at least get some classes in it, looks like he followed tutorials on youtube and that's it.

i'll take some decent graphics/html over flash anyday.

edit: also, doesn't matter if you argue with him or not about the flash.. it's for your site not his.. arguing isn't doing the job and is grounds to get fired pronto.

He did have a ton of templates to choose from. I kept picking the one below for a base. I like the colors and layout for the most part.

What about this layout. colors etc?? I want clean and simple with the same theme, colors etc. thru the wholesite

Notepad and Photoshop is what i use to.

Tell him to use CSS, much better and more expandable. Html is limited.

Tell him to make a site template on Photoshop and cut it, and make it with css, that way he doesnt use flash -.-

That layout is better, but when you are setting up an audio sales website, the most important thing is content.

Forget about a sleek looking website. Focus on getting enough info about your products.

That piece of shit took 30 fucking second to load.. As for the site it looks generic, bland and you won't get jack not even a quick ball sniff from google, yahoo or any other SE due to your moron designer coding the entire thing in flash.Also it's 'website //content.invisioncic.com/y282845/emoticons/fyi.gif.9f1f679348da7204ce960cfc74bca8e0.gif

You might wanna listen to this guy. He's my website designer. And hostess with teh mostest. //content.invisioncic.com/y282845/emoticons/wink.gif.608e3ea05f1a9f98611af0861652f8fb.gif

your the customer, he's not. tell him this is what you want, and if he doesnt do it, find another designer.

I agree with TheLow and the others. It looks like he either followed some step by step instructions, or used a pre-made flash template and modified it to fit your needs. I hope you are not paying this guy much.

PS & Notepad is all a good designer needs to create some professional looking websites.
