I'm sick and tired of hacking up code to get things to work in IE, especially when I've hardly EVER had ANY problems with FireFox! So, if someone happens to look at my site and have any suggestions in adding more IE hack code to help IE users along, please let me know! I'm always open to creative criticism and always take it to heart (as long as it's respectful! )
The site is still under construction (who isn't?!?) and is only a few days old, so bear with me!
It's a little bit messed up. Too many graphical elements, too many gadgets all together (like page peel): your visitors will be scared by the home page. Keep it lighter.
Hello Scott. How many sales can a website afford to loose just because it looks better on firefox?. The idea is great and design better, but is all scrambled on ie and some images are just not showing. The name is great "frozen fire", i just can´t stop saying it on my office . It sounds like joomla 2.0 version´s name .
I feel you need to feature more of your content on you main page. What you're about, what's inside your website. Put some life into your "welcome" message. Make it exciting, that people will want to see more of your site. Let me see some designs and photos!
I agree about the firefox issue. I'm with you, I love firefox, but you may scare away potential visitors/customers who don't feel the same about browsers. Why loose people over a personal preference.
fade the fire image on the outer edges (width-wise) as it definitely shows on monitors wider that 1000px. OTher than that it does look a little lite on the content. But I would imagine that would come with time.
