Can someone please review my new business website and let me know what they think (from a design perspective or a grammatical perspective or whatever) I should change?
I have not made a business website in many years, so I could use some pointers. The links page has nothing right now, because I'm working on figuring out howI will put google ads there. :) I will likely add some to the side of some of the longer pages as well.
Thanks in advance!

Cute design. I like the colors. My only complaint is that some of the graphics are pixelly. You may want to change that. Otherwise, nice job.

Hi,
Just one thing i noticed, the fish rollover is a little bit dodgy, also I fully agree with Teresa, the contact is the most important bit of your web site. Prehaps you could put your contact where the news tab is now,other than that just sort the pixelated pictures out and it would be great! they let it down a bit.
I do like your rollover animal pictures, they do look good, the rollover on the "about us" is a different colour than the other tabs and it looks like you used a different filter on the dogbut this is only me nit picking! ;)
I could make you a quality company logo if you like, i'll do it for free if you let me put it in my portfolio.
All the best to you and I hope your business goes well, sounds like a nice idea. I just hope the pets behave for you! :)
Sincerely,
Mark

Thank you so much for all of your input! I will work on making those corrections.
Also, Mark, I would be honored and appreciativeif you would make a logo for me so that you can put one in your portfolio! I can edit existing graphicsto a degree,but I can't seem to create my own. So thank you!
I appreciate everyone's feedback and time.Edited by: kerrinne

All the best to you, I will add a link to your website from mine, it would be really great if you could do the same for me.

It's lovely! Far better than I could do, that's without question! :) Thank you!
And I don't mind adding a link to your page at all!
Thanks scadesigns! It was a template I purchased a long time ago, but I didn't like all that it had. So, as with all my web templates, I've been playing with it a lot over the years. o_O I've used templates a few times in the past, and it seems to save some time -- making it worth the money. But I do enjoy making some pages from scratch like kerrinne.com and my old online role-playing site (now shut down because I'm too busy!).

I do want to mention one thing I noticed today as I was checking out your site again. It looks different in IE and Mozilla. In IE it looks ok but then switch to Mozilla and there is a difference. For example the purple column to the left. It stays in the correct spot in IE then in Mozilla it tends to drop to the bottom of your page with a huge white spot at the top. There are a couple other minor things. Give it a look in Mozilla when you get a chance. I hope that helps.

Heather,
I think it looks really good from a design perspective. I could swear you
just walked through my college course with me because it looks like some
of the work they turned out.
the thing with pixialization must be from different computers. I have a
beautiful mac with a dinima screen and it is gorgeous.
That is one thing that is very important is to check it on the different
browsers. Looks good from a mac on Safari though.
To your success,
Kim
