Hi,
I'm new to the forums, so I should probably say hello to you all first. I'm Nick and I'm not a professional designer, more of a freelance developer who tries to make sites look reasonable.
I'm currently working on a site for my wife's new business, an online handbag store. Obviously the target market is 20-50 year old women with disposable income. We wanted something quite richly coloured but not loud, not stark greys, not too girly.
I'm ok with some parts of the design so far, and could use some input on others. I think the main content of the pages is looking ok, but I'm not 100% sure about the header, left nav and background...
- Is the purple background too much?
- The logo was done by an agency, any thoughts about the motif or the font?
- Do the left and top navs work ok together?
Any input very much welcomed.
Thanks,
Nick
