I'm finally getting my own website finished off and wondered if you kind people would take a look and let me know what you think?

Anything that doesn't work for you, anything I've really got wrong!?

Appreciate any feedback....go on, I'm ready!

PS Disclaimer....I'm not quite finished yet so that niggly problem you've found could just be next on my list to get sorted! ;-)

Looks great to me justin, just a couple comments

1. it may look better if your slideshow images where full width of site.

2. in the header the grey pattern background may look better all white to tie in with rest of header.

Is the actual slideshow working? The buttons don't appear to work due to the slow transition, the banner must be fully visible first.

Cheers :-) Not sure they'll go wider as it's set in the slideshow but will check....the header is part of the new template I bought, will have to see if that can be changed easily as well.

Looks good.

Slideshow worked for me in Firefox, and the buttons and arrows work. Think it is a little slow in the transition but nothing to worry about.

Love the colour scheme and the whole site in general is looking really good.

Things I would do

With the four items you have on the front website, I would perhaps put a "FEATURED ITEMS" heading, just to sort of hit home that there are more items available

I would not advertise the photographers bit in the slide show, but instead use it to show case another product. I would also separate out another link to advertise clubs and organizations just in case they do not see themselves as a trade buyer.

May have more constructive comments but my wife has just placed a couple of hamburgers with potatoes and beans on a plate in front of me... sorry this wins every time :-)

The default opencart slideshow can be set up to 980px (you need to make image 980px to) i have this on my site (click my name on right lol ) the header should be easy i would imagine it would be in your stylesheet.css and will be a image link u could change it to a colour instead or white box image if you want to keep the image just in case you want to alter it in the future
