CONTEST: New USA Kilts Site

[Frank McGrath]

Man...am I glad I don't proofread for a living. Great site. Only problem I saw is that your female model is frowning in some of the pics. It would be better if she were smiling. Good Job.

If you knew what we paid her, you'd know why she was frowning. HAHAHA

Can't find any obvious mistakes. Love the new design. Easier to navigate, less cluttered navigation menu, updated photos without harsh flash shadows, and good models to see the "entire package" instead of just the featured item. I got "lost" on the site for a full half hour. Good work.

I'm rubbish at finding mistakes - but I wanted to say your new site looks terrific!

[Galb]

WOOT! I just finished. I sent you an email with the Word Document attached. I hope it helps. Great looking site!

I am a web developer in my real world job, and I was wondering if you're only looking for 'cosmetic' issues (typos, missing images, broken links, etc.) or are you also considering structural issues, such as code, usability, accessibility, semantic CSS, etc. ?

If you are, then I could send you a very detailed report with suggestions, based on the few pages I checked, if it's only cosmetic, I would only repeat what's been said before.

[Beertigger]

Indeed, there are quite a few structural issues going on.

It's not your server making that site slow....

I did not read the posts above me but here are my thoughts -

Main and all other pages - not an error but a suggestion - Perhaps darken the knot work borders that separate the items on the page.

Guarantee page here - http://www.usakilts.com/guarantee.php - I would suggest a substitution the "but poorer quality" description with "lesser quality".

On the pics, where you can click to enlarge the image - I think a "zooming feature" would be very nice. That way the customer would be able to see the detail in every article you sell.
I would also suggest adding "back" pictures for each product, so the customer can see the reversed side of the article.

Additional links page - http://www.usakilts.com/other_links.php - The "Highland Games" link in between the Celtic radio and Brian Boru links is a dead link. This is what appears - http://www.highlandgameslist.com/ and it is a blank page - I'd also suggest an increase of the distance between the three links because the Highland Games link looks as if it's a "header" or title for the Brian Boru link. I almost passed it by. You may also want to consider making the words "Highland Games" bold and the rest in plain text.

Otherwise, that is a fine looking website.

About 30 hours left in the contest. So far the entries have been OVERWHELMINGLY detailed. Many people went above and beyond in their evaluations, and for that we truly thank you.

I'll announce the winner on Thursday, but until tomorrow at 5 PM, it's still anyone's game.
