prairieannie Posted October 28, 2005 Share Posted October 28, 2005 I'm at work and have dial up here, your site loads excruciatingly slow. Looks pretty easy to navigate, noticed a spelling error on the first page, there is an OUR that should be ARE. I couldn't look at the rest of it because it was taking too long for stuff to load. Maybe this evening from home. Your colors are nice. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Lorrie Posted October 28, 2005 Share Posted October 28, 2005 I think that it is nice. I like the gift basket but I think that you may want to put in discriptions of what is included in the gift baskets. If it was there and I missed it sorry.

Common Scents Posted October 28, 2005 Share Posted October 28, 2005 I really like the look of your site! I am getting ready to do mine with them too! The only suggestion I have right off is for your gift baskets, you may want to list what all comes in them so people know what they are getting!

kate Posted November 15, 2005 Share Posted November 15, 2005 I really like the look and the name, very cute. But, I'm on dial-up and your site is just way too slow - if I wasn't specifically looking at it because you asked, I wouldn't have stayed around for it to load ... it's actually still not loaded since I started typing this. Also, this is just personal preference, but if I have to click on something after I type in your web address, I won't bother entering. I really like your opening page, it's cute, but again, if I wasn't looking specifically at your site, I wouldn't have bothered clicking.Ok, it's finally loaded ... clicked on your gift basket link, and again taking waaaaay too long. For pics that small, they should pop up almost immediately. Maybe the experts can give you some suggestions on how to make things faster.I really do like the graphics and such that you picked, it's just too bogged down for my slow dial-up.Kate Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
joyofsoycandle Posted November 15, 2005 Share Posted November 15, 2005 Please dont take this the wrong way, but i was just wondering, can you resell the vaseline beads and the bubble bath, the skintimate gel, the jergens. I dont know these things, so I cant say it cant be done, I just wasnt sure so thats why im asking! :smiley2: I didnt think you could resell those types of products. Wouldnt you have to have a license of some sort? Again, I dont know, i just wondered. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
krystalkay Posted November 15, 2005 Author Share Posted November 15, 2005 Thanks for your comments. As far as slow, I really don't know. I am working on fixing that but there is only a few people that have said it is slow.As for the resale on those products, I wouldn't see why- Products such as bath products are resold all the time. This basket was actually for my mom and I don't normally do ones like this but I just used it as an example.Thanks for the comments Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
krystalkay Posted November 15, 2005 Author Share Posted November 15, 2005 Oh and BTW- I have decided to keep the name. I have two lil' girls ages 2 and 4 so my husband told me I should use the name for them. I thought that was a good idea and would save me a lot of trouble, now for lots more work on my website...Thank you guys so much, you are great...

SatinDucky Posted November 15, 2005 Share Posted November 15, 2005 I agree completely about it being slow to load. I'm stuck with dial-up here. I went and poured some votives while it loaded. And that was only because it was posted here. I wont wait that long for any site unless there's a special circumstance. As for shopping, theres almost always another site with products/prices just as good that you don't have to wait on. But it is all very cute Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mountainmadness Posted November 15, 2005 Share Posted November 15, 2005 I like your website but read over it for grammar errors. Something as simple as that can make or break your presentation- IMO.It does look very nice though.i.e. "Sugar & Spice and scents that are nice, that's what Sisters~N~Scents ARE made of."

krystalkay Posted November 15, 2005 Author Share Posted November 15, 2005 Thank you Jennifer, I am from a small country town and my grammar isn't the best. Thank you so much =) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Michi Posted November 15, 2005 Share Posted November 15, 2005 I agree that it's slow loading, and I have a DSL connection. May want to check with your server about that. Also, I think the pics. (especially the baskets) are waaay too small even after you click on them. I also agree, a description of what comes in each basket is needed, I wanna know what I'm getting.I also don't care for having to click on the first page to even get into your site, although I love your graphics and such, it's just one added unecessary click.

dixylight Posted November 16, 2005 Share Posted November 16, 2005 I didn't have to do an extra click to get to your website. I also have DSL and it loaded really fast for me. Not sure what that was about. I like the layout. I do however agree that the baskets should have more details and the spelling needs editing. I'm new to candle-making and pretty far from having a website...so good luck! It must be very exciting! Hope to have a site myself someday...if I don't burn the house down first! Just Kidding!
