Test site for new website

Post by Aglifter »

If you guys could take a look, I would appreciate it. For some reason, we are having difficulties getting it loaded on our hosting service, but that's a bit beyond something I deal with.

Just at a quick glance, it looks good. But then I'm hardly an expert.

We could, but shipping is a bit absurd ~45 for 4 pints, last I checked.

Its a nice site, easy to read. It seems a bit large; on my work 1280x1024 screen it needs quiet a bit of vertical scrolling to see everything. I like it and tonight I'll try to check it out on the 1600x1200 at home.

That's not a knock to me, but I've read quite a bit on site designed (haven't done any though) and minimizing scrolling is pounded on quite a bit. And with most folks using crappy widescreens with less vertical resolution than my old square monitors (or laptops with 768 vertical, the most common size apparently) it might be a bit too much.

It works fine on my laptop from the coffee shop. The webfilter at work blocks it however.

I think that the pictures of the ice cream will be incorporated. The photos are still being processed from our photo shoot. (I will post them once done.) I will double check on that - as much as the blessed things cost, I want to use them as much as I can.

Thank you for the suggestions. I asked about the scrolling - we've tested on all the platforms we can find.

I believe a downloadable form of our "look book" is going on the website - not sure though.
