Just one thing... THIS PAGE in FF..the bottom menu is mid-page (see attached)

Looks fine in IE7 though.

Just something I noticed as I passed through!

ooh...editted to add...again in FF..the main menu is very spaced out compared to IE (see beemenu attachment)

Nice site - I did like the old one you had so this will be hard to beat.

One thing I quickly noticed was that your tel number at top of page is not easily seen grey on white.

... (see attached)...

I think an oops is due....

Thanks Tracey.... weird I can't seem to replicate the "errors" in FF.

Anyone have an idea what could be causing this?

Not sure if it the brochure pages or long content but there is an issue with the bottom footer being over-typed with content in Firefox http://www.thehoneyfarm.com.au/acata...uka_Honey.html for example.

I'm not sure the new site generates the `honey atmosphere` that the old one did. Was it mainly yellow?

The homepage would have been better maybe with a couple of images instead of the text links to the sections? It just seems a bit `bare` to me.

Even going to the sections list, the first fragment has info on where you are etc, I'm thinking I've clicked on online shop, now show me the stuff man! rather than a bit of where you are and your phone number.

A nice clean design, but I think you'll make it a lot better in the weeks to come.

*throws petrol onto the fire*... would it be better with a yellow background? Yellow and brown are just screaming to be the main colours on that site you know.

Very nice Mal. Great pictures on the Wellies and Indian Food stores. And I like the colour pallete on the Indian Food store.

Very nice Mal

Thanks Duncan - its amazing how much you can get done when your not on the forum every day

Yeah i like the Natco site, but i like the Wellies site best. The wellies site made me laff, which i think is a great asset on any website.
