    Launched my website come and see

    Hello. I just published my website and thought maybe I could get some of you to check it out and let me know what you think. It's brand new and i'm just starting out so there isn't a whole lot to it yet. I wanted it simple and easy to navigate. See if you think I accomplished that objective. Let me know your opinions. Thanks for any input you have to offer. http://www.kingkongconstrictors.com/

    Nice website, I would suggest adding an 'available' button even if it is still under construction, just to entice people to come back and check in on the site over time. Best of luck.

    Just looked at your blog. Very cool! The first word that came to my mind was "classy". I like it and will keep looking.

    My criticism...

    First thing that I notice is the gap between the nav bar and the content of the page, it's like 60-70px tall. lot of screen space to take up.

    The text on the home page seems out of place bright red and yellow, especially when compared to the rest of the site. I would suggest adding text effects of some sort or change the color to make it easier on the eyes.

    The logo isn't centered in the frame on the home page.

    You may want to consider a like button or at the very least a facebook icon linking to your facebook, instead of a text url. imo looks more professional

    The email is not linked, which I would expect out of any site now a days, this can be done by replace the text with this...

    Code:
    <a target="_blank" href="mailto:paul@kingkongconstrictors.com">paul@kingkongconstrictors.com</a>
    I'm sure it will develop into something that will serve you well. good job so far

    Very awesome and get to the point website. I would make the logo smaller so it fits on the page without the need to scroll up and down.
    And on the about me page I would center that picture of your snake.

    I feel like it is unnecessary to have an "info" page and an "about me" page AND a "home page" Perhaps merging info and about me, or about me and the home page will make it more concise? But of course this is a preference,
