Eye popper allright!

Ha ha ha ha… Ok, I just can’t resist.

This is for CURRENT WORKS right? Hee hee..

Well my wife (our lead eCommerce developer ) is working on a Lingerie site.. SO hey gang, I guess I can have it here.

Sorry about the loads, it’s not the cart or the designs, it’s her host. It’s not on my servers and am trying to get her to move.

It's build around OS Commerce

Enjoy…

Soulfire Lingerie

It's a nice idea.. But the colors just don't seem very appealing..

Ahhh my friend, but they are appealing. To the one person whom matters. The client.
Let not your own sensibilities overcome your desire to make a living. You can suggest bark and bite all you want. If the client has their mind set, they have it set.
What she wants, is what she shall get.

Jeez, we’ve actually had clients down in the US that sent us fricken paint swatches in the mail (post). Had to scan them in ha ha ha ha…

With all due respect, it's the gallery showcase forum and it's ultimatly a critique thread. You have to be able to accept personal opinions on your designs without immediatly throwing justifications at them.

I personally don't find the design appealing at all, the colours are rather monotone and they're are countless shapes in the header for no apparent reason, it looks like a template to me.

The css rollovers on the links don't do any justice to the text and it doesn't compliment the site (it doesn't even make it easier to read the link). The colour used for "guest!" is almost impossible to read from the background. I also find the text sizes used fot the most part of the site far too small.

Sure, there are some nice ladies half naked on the website, but it's the design we're reviewing not them.

I work with quite a few store fronts I was just saying the colors didnt seem appealing from a clients stand point. Personally--if i was dealing with something like that--I would pick out the 6 largest actual stores like victoria and go off what they use for coloring. The dark maroon just doesn't always come off as appealing or sexy to a person.

Honestly, I think the colour choice is fine, but I think you need to pick a more contrasting pair.At least make the html background the dark purple.

I think splittting the nav up just creates clutter. keeping it left alinged across the top allows you to put the drop down in the top right, freeing up the left bubble in the header, which probably gives you a more convenient spot for a 'check out' link.

Trying using a vertical align too, when the page body is large, the left column is all mixed up instead of staying at the top.

I think getting better quality pics of the girls would look better.
