Hi guys. As you know I have been strugling to get our web site back up and running and in the process I gave it a new look. I am pleased with the look but since I have changed some of the navigation paths and options I would really love to hear your opinions on the overall ease of the site.

If you find it is all to much please let me know where I might consider improvements. I really am a dummy when it comes to this and because our web site are basically our stores, I want it to be acceptable.

Thank you Louise

Louise you have done a wonderful job  :clap:  The only suggestion I would make is that I myself find it easier to navigate around a site when those link buttons are in the same general location on each page.  But it really did not take any extra time at all as you have it set up... since you don't have to scroll down too far on the page where the links are at the bottom anyways.  (sorry for the runon sentance!  Just trying to check posts real quick  :redface:

Thank you so much all of you. Laura I totally agree with you. I was thinking the very same thing. I will be making those changes as there are not that many places to correct it. Thank you all my darlins for your input.

Now. I must say that our very own Laura Lyn initialy set this site up for me. I absolutely loved my original site, but when web host changes happen I had to redo. The basic set up is thanks to Laura, who did more than a marvelous job for us for way to cheap.

Louise and Garnet, I love your site, and think Laura did a fantastic job on it for you.  The colors are so soft and pretty, but not TOO soft and pretty.  I really think it has a wonderful, easy, relaxed, perfect look to it.  Very, very user friendly, and soothing and pleasant to visit.  Bravo!

I like your site.  I think it's easy on the eyes, easy to navigate (I like that you can always get back to the home page with the link at the top.  I do agree with what Laura Lynn said.

Do you make the clothes on the site?

Thank you guys for the great comments. If it was not for Laura, I could never have learned to do the HTML to make the changes.

I do not make the clothes. There is quite a story behind them however. When we first started selling our bears as a business and started a web site. I went absolutely crazy buying bear clothes. I MEAN CRAZY!!!! Now I seldom use them and I have tons!!!!!! I am trying to recoop a bit of the INVESTMENT into these lovely little items. They are absolutely lovely and very well made so if any one I MEAN ANYONE.. needs bear clothes, please let me know. I will offer free shipping to all orders over $50.00!!!
