Constructive Opinion Please
I redid my website using only CoffeCup software. I used VSD, FireStarter and The FormBuilder from CC. I just upload it and need your opinion. I understand that the site does need some tweaks but I still did the upload since I know is not one of my most popular sites in regards to visits yet. Please let me know any issues you find. But again please be gentle in your critique since I have not finish yet:
The site is at: http://www.wevdesign.com

Hiya Ci,
Here's what I'm seeing and suggesting, looks really well formed and eye pleasing for sure, good job there. Only a few things I could see need attention:
All as seen on Windows XP, Firefox 3.6
http://www.wevdesign.com/cart.html
On that page the bottom left red colored text is overlapping the text above it. That same red text needs to be standardized with your pages as it is different spacing between all your package pages. Some pages it's too far away, some it's right next to the above paragraph, some it's on top of the above paragraph etc. Make it so it's the same on each of those pages so it's more uniform looking and it will be much nicer.

The Hosting part of your site should also be on your top left menu rather than just the footer menu.
On the footer menu you have 2 links that go to the same place. The Contact and the Support, only really need one of them, I would opt for the Contact.
Most of your images are a bit cloudy looking or somewhat grainy looking. Not horribly mind you, just enough to make it look a little more amateurish which I'm sure you don't want and it wouldn't look so if that weren't the case. I'm thinking some of that might be caused by VSD but I don't use that program so I'm not sure how to get around that issue.
That's about all I could see that needs attention, good job for sure and good luck on it too

Thank you for your critique I appreciate it. Let me explain a couple of things:
I agree on that and I hope that Scott see this thread because this is a good oportunity for VSD to get attention on getting a zoom tool. I admit that some of the positioning are my fault but I know that a lot of designers are eager to get a hand on this tool.
I'm using Photoshop CS2 for the images and they look fine on the canvas. I believe that the problem lies on the rendering in VSD and specially on the header in Fire Starter. I will try to redo the images this time at a 100 percent high quality jpeg to see if it solves the problem

I would also say that VSD also need a ruler
BTW the picture you are showing that the text overlaps is showing correctly in IE and Opera, is only having this problem with Firefox. I will correct it anyway.

Firefox could be a good 40-60% of your users so very well worth fixing.
I know you believe you understand what you think I said...but I am not sure you realize that what you heard is not exactly what I meant.

The philosopher has not done philosophy until he has acted upon the mere conviction of his idea; for proof of the theory is in the act, not the idea.
