Magento

Hello Magento Folk

I wanted to first start by thanking the many community members who gave us excellent advice when we were stuck during the development of this site. I tip my hat (if I were wearing a hat) to all of you for your help!

This site development is a basic Magento resking with a few extra items:

1. We added a featured items call out on the homepage that pulls from an external CMS
2. We skinned a wordpress blog to match the look and feel
3. Did a heavy reskin of the contact page

Basically, though we kept it real simple and tried to create a unique look within the basic Magento UI… in our opinion, no need to reinvent a well-crafted wheel

Your feedback is very much appreciated!

It looks nice.

Your wine club page seem to still pointing to your development site. http://dev.winesandmakers.com/clubs/case-club.html

Looks nice.. but the text on your header isn’t very easy to read. Visit your site without images or without CSS enabled.. you will see that a lot of code isn’t perfect.E.g. you will see a lot of <span>Home</span> at your navigation menu.

Good catch. Thanks, Chang!

Joachim—Yes. We’ll be optimizing on Monday. Thanks for the feedback

Nice and clean, i like the layout, maybe a little bit bright though.

Good Job! I like the color scheme and the small details.
I like the small drop shadow on the sides of the content module.
Makes me want to buy some wine. Keep up the good work.

looks good due to a good color sense…

But nothing special since its fairly close to to the default looks....
