Very nice. Really solid version of the Able framework. Atttractive and fast.

One note that if you hit showcasesforless.com you get an error, but http://www.showcasesforless.com works fine. Nice thing about the able licensing scheme.

Great site.

Needs: New Buttons.
Less Info button gives you more info. More info button gives you less info. (doesn't need more info)

Email me and I can send you all the buttons in colors that match.

Thanks,

Looks good. One change I'd make is either adding category navigation to the category pages or removing category navigation from the product pages. I found it a little annoying when I was viewing a product and could only go forward or backward one category and then lost the << Prev Category Next >> links.

I was able to get to the Counter Top Cases and Kiosks categories by using the category navigation buttons, but couldn't get to them from the front end (except from the directory page).

Also, I'd try to keep consistent the breadcrumb trails throughout your pages. And it would be helpful if Category Titles displayed at the top of all the categories. Some categories (like http://www.showcasesforless.com/Grid_an ... ies_C9.cfm) don't show the name at the top of the page.

Also, it'd be nice to see colors other than the AC blue on pages like the login and billinfo pages.

Great job on the design though. It varies enough from the default AC layout that it doesn't even look like an AC site unless you know what to look for. Nice.

Thanks George,

We are working on the site to make the category navigation more consistant, the category header for hardware we are also working on. We just added that new category Kiosks so it did not have any navigation on the front as yet. We have also fixed this....

Also got headers on all the categories.

Thanks again....
