Hi HollyRose and welcome to PSU!! I gave it a looksie and it's very nice! I love the colors together - would love to see you expand your tan(ish) background out further if possible.
One other suggestion - is there a way to have your link 'words' next to the rose instead of overlaying it? I love the rose - so you covering that up, but it also makes it just a bit difficult to read!
In your guest book, I think there are clickable pictures with your guest signatures - I'm using FF and they didn't show as pictures but as 'boxes with x'.
Beyond this few suggestions, looks very nice - best of luck with your items and sales!!! :D :D |

Thanks for the feedback! I just increased the font on my rose menu buttons so the text is clearer. Those were some great suggestions.

Hello Everyone,
I just updated my website again: http://www.hollyrosearomatherapy.com
Tell me what you think. I'm considering selling on wagglepop too? I've got to look into that more.
Thanks,
Holly |

Hi Holly
I JUST joined the psu boards, but I've been to your site via your ad on the Biblical Womanhood blog!! I just wanted to let you know your ad was attracting traffic. |

I think your site looks great! What I would do, though, instead of highlighting your welcome message, I would put it in a solid colored box that matches the tan (or taupe) on the sides or even have it in the same pink color but in a box instead of highlighting the words. I think that would bring it all together nicely... but thats just my humble opinion and nothing more.
I know one thing I dont like about websites is when there are so many different colors of text and graphics being used so as to emphasize certain things (or just to show off their HTML skills). To me that looks choppy and uncoordinated. Your colors, on the other hand, are very nicely done - Soft and inviting and suitable for what you are selling.
Looks great! Im sure you put a lot of work into it and its definitely showing! Awesome job!
PS. I joined your mailing list! :) |

Site looks good!
There's something which struck me though:
emu Oil is Anti-aging,great for easing Arthritis,healing Sunburns,Psoriasis & Eczema,heals Sprains & Strain 50%
Did you know that putting a text like this on your website all off your products containing emu oil are considered a drug by the FDA (U.S. Food and Drug Administration?
Some quotes from the FDA site:
...The FD&C Act defines drugs by their intended use, as "(A) articles intended for use in the diagnosis, cure, mitigation, treatment, or prevention of disease...
...Claims stated on the product labeling, in advertising, on the Internet, or in other promotional materials. Certain claims may cause a product to be considered a drug, even if the product is marketed as if it were a cosmetic...
Generally, drugs must either receive premarket approval by FDA or conform to final regulations specifying conditions whereby they are generally recognized as safe and effective, and not misbranded.
You might want to check up on the FDA's rules and regulations regarding soap, cosmetics and drugs and advertising:
Is It a Cosmetic, a Drug, or Both? (or Is It Soap?)
Food and Drug Administration Home Page
Good luck! |

Good Morning and Welcome.
Seems you have been getting what you asked for. Lots of suggestions.
I also looked around your site and it looks great.
I only have one thing to add. On the about us page, your e-mail address is going to an address that is not within your site. Your hosting service should give you e-mail accounts so you could and should set one up for sales@(your site name). You can set you e-mail program to retrieve this mail or set it to be forward to your current e-mail address.
Just my thought.
Good luck
