    Hoping to get some constructive criticism

    Hey folks, my website is still under construction, but I was hoping to get different perspectives on it.

    The rat rack plan page has 2 links that don't work because that is as far as I got today before I came home.

    I would appreciate any feedback, CONSTRUCTIVE, please.

    I had to do it from scratch, I only used Notepad ++ and the W3 website to get it where it is today. I couldn't find any templates that I liked so I had to teach myself how to do it the not so easy way.

    Anyway, Please let me know what you think.

    Thank you.

    I took a quick look at your website. One thing that I want to mention is your 'about us' page. After reading through it the page makes it sound like you deal with selling rats rather than snakes. I'm not sure if that was what you were planning but you seem to focus to much on the rats.

    An 'about us' page should have an overview of everything you do and not just focus on one particular aspect of your business.

    I hope you follow what I am trying to say and I hope this is what you mean by constructive.

    It looks pretty good! I like to know what the facility looks like that I'm getting my animals from. So maybe a page full of pictures of your facility? Just to add to the trust a little. Peple would see the racks and would know you are a serious breeder. Just my 2 cents.

    Looks good.

    The only thing I thought was off was under "Available." You have your logo for the retic selection. I just happened to click on it but I didn't think it was actually a selectable button. I think it would be more clear to use a retic pic for that instead of you logo. I also thought it might be good to place the snake name on each pic for those who are new to snakes or have the name pop up when you place the cursor over it.

    I appreciate the feedback. I have incorporated the suggestions. I am NOT a creative person so I have to keep it simple, but any criticism is appreciated.

    The rack plans are a bit confusing / too small to read the numbers

    I made the plans bigger so you can see them easier. What do you mean they are confusing?
    When I was looking for plans to help me get started I couldn't find much as far as measurements. I tried to spell it out. How would it be easier to read?
