This is not a criticism, but an observation. I felt that the simplicity of the website itself (it was real easy to understand what you were selling, and what we get for our money) really helped.

My biggest problem is, i can never do a simple elegant design. Im not a designer and always have to rely on either wordpress or html templates.



I'm not a great designer myself, so I always go with a simple rule of thumb - keep it simple and don't try to do things I'm not good at.

You don't have to be a a capital-D designer to make good work. I'd recommend picking up "The Non-Designer's Design Book" by Robin Williams.

Sometimes all you need to do is not make any glaring mistakes in order to create a design that works.


Thanks!
