Default Fastech web site up ... feedback please?

This is our first hack at the web site. Just a warning, it isn't "dial-up friendly" Feel free to provide feedback. No options yet for ordering online.

Pros

1. Very cool layout
2. Easily readable menu's
3. Excellent graphics ( looks like you guys put alot of time into it)
4. The gallery and the dyno top ten is really cool. I know I would want to be on both
lists if doing business with you guys. (Great idea!!)

Cons

1. On the contact us page there is only an email. Need at least a number too,
possibly even the physical address of the shop.
2. The music is cool but it does waste bw and people looking to browse may
unfortunatly still have dial up. It is cool don't get me wrong but from a business
perspective it may be better without cause people hate waiting.
3. Need online ordering availability, Most of my parts orders through vendors have been via the web unless it was a major part. I would get this up asap if possible.

All in all a very cool website and whoever designed it was awesome. Just a few little bugs to work out and it'll be perfect.

Mike thanks for the insight. I know that we need our shopping cart system set up IN A HURRY !!!! I also feel you on the whole "dial up" issue. I just felt like we needed a pimp intro to give potential customers that warm fuzzy feeling. We will keep working to go from cool looking, to super functional in the weeks and months to come.

At work, music is not good from a website (mute). Couldn't scroll anywhere.


- I do all of my part shopping at work, I am not going to shop at a site that won't allow me to browse it minimized

Good point! A lot of folks mentioning the scroll issue. Music is cool, but can cause trouble while browsing at work

Or you can just hit stop on the music as well if you don't want it at all.

The scroll doesn't work too well on 800x600 it seems. Also the form for the free tune is working... It just isn't sending me any of your names yet! LOL... work in progress!
