I am still working on this site, changes daily, but there is so much to do still and alot of it I overlook.

I'd like to have to guys browse around and check it out. Let me know of anything that doesnt look right, work right, or just could be better.

The store is LIVE, so if you place an order, I'm charging your credit card and sending you off-road parts.

http://www.rjroffroad.com

the prices are pretty good, some as much as 20-25% back from jobber/dealer pricing and nothing is more than jobber for you off-roaders.

Don't be too harsh, its been a bad day, I totaled a car on the way to work today.

I only have up or down votes, and the up vote came when I clicked on a manufacturers logo and it didn't just kick me over to thier site. I hate that ----, so you pass. The homepage "welcome statement" could be written better, but other than that it's real good.
I couldn't find anything by bushwacker that I wanted to buy, but let me know when you start selling bushmaster.

I'd never try to re-direct you to another site. If you go somewhere else, it greatly deters you staying on my site and buying stuff. I don't have bushmaster in my vendor listings, got a link?

**edit**

guns? you butthole, you had me trying to find a 4x4 related Bushmaster vendor for like 10 minutes.

i like how the dimensions of the site are kept to 650 x 1050 on the front page..

not digging how it goes back to a full length page on the others..

I know but its alot to fit in 650 width. I could take it down so its a little narrower, but not by much, I will play with it.

Looks good man.

Heres my honest pointers:
-the blue lettering in the opening paragraph made me instantly think "Link". I'd change that color of font, or outline it.
-Steves right, the opening paragraph def. needs to be re-writtin
-and another question. Is the shop new or the site new? If its just the site, I would make sure people know the business has been established for a long time, you are just opening it up on the net to go 'worldwide' now, or 'due to continous growth'. People are sketchy when it comes to buyin from new business', especially over the internet.
-the "enter" line is way to small, I totally missed it the first time I clicked on the site.
-put your counter way at the bottom and reset that bitch to like 8479 or something like that. thats a pretty 'bland' counter also. there are TONS out there that look better IMO


Other than that, I think it looks real good man.
