I found it to be very slow loading, maybe because it is so graphics heavy. I don't think it is a good idea to have such a large header graphic, as it means that scrolling is necessary to be able to buy anything. Took me a long time to notice where the cart module was - I usually look top right for that rather than a bit up from the bottom on the left.

Having said that, apart from speed the site seems to function well and I hope you generate some good sales figures.

Thanks jenkinhill for your insite! I have moved the cart up toward the top and will be debating on if we need a view cart link on the top menu as well. As for now because we are brand new, we are graphic intensive. I know this has some to do with the speed rates but the fact it's Joomla has something to do with it as well.

I don't mind the scrolling for the main page because again we want our identity known being so new...I figured it is the alternative in having a splash entrance page...also don't mind it so much because the header is not on every page. I'm not sure I can do much about the scrolling factor in that there's going to be that with any shopping cart. Any ideas on that would be helpful.

Again appreciate your thoughts and taking the time to look over the site and reply. All feedback is good feedback!

Yeah its a bit slow, there is alot of information here in the forums to help speed things up a bit, 1 thing, since you have alot of images make sure each image is not very heavy, this seems to help alot

The other thing I would be concerned about is how are you going to get alont with search engines since its so much graphics on the home page, you dont seem to have much info..

Here is a great link to help figure out how to help analyze your site content..

But I must say the look of the website is awesomoe, good job with what you have done, keep it up!

Nice job, your site looks really good! I love your left side drop-down menu, that's really cool.
