I like the layout and the green but I can't read the blue text without highlighting it. O0
 
looks rather intruiging but yes the blue text is very difficult to read
love the olde worlde lettering looks classy O0
looing forward to the diary
 
hehe yeh should be good, I'm havin a little jiggle around with templates, freewebs just doesnt like my pc, takes so long to load one page 98) lol
 
ummmm, well i guess they'll have to provide their own, ill change it around :D
 
I really like it, looks professional, the only things i will say are:
1. The yellow prices are hard to read.
2. Where you have the rehoming bit, it is unclear to me anyway if you have to pay £15 altoghether to have a pig adopted, or just the £10, or if you have to pay maintenance of £5, but maybe that is me just being thick!? 98)
3. And on this bit (Hope you don't mind me copying and pasting) At my house I have as mentioned a shed which currently has two good sized hutches and a small chicken run (currently occupied by Merry & Rosie) Also a big chicken ark for fantastic outside mischief. I personally wouldn't go into detail about what accomodation you have, if i saw only 2 hutches i would probably assume they were filled and not bother, and i also worry about saying chicken runs, people may worry they are used by chickens aswell and be dirty and not hygeinic for guineas, although this may be just me again! Maybe just say spacious hutches and huge run or something?

Sorry if this is over critical! I do love the site though!
 
The site looks great, one thing that confused me are you asking people to donate money for you to take guinea pigs into your rescue? Only very rarley are people kind enough to donate to us when we take a guinea in and also you would need to budget for any veterinary treatment the guinea might need and it's boarding costs while it is with you and unfortunately some rescues stay for some while before they are re-homed. (This will also take up space that you might want to use for boarding) The average cost of vet checks/treatment and boarding for our guineas before they have been re-homed is around £50 (and these guineas are relatively short stay around 3 months on average) and we ask for a £15 adoption fee to help towards costs so if you are giong to rescue be prepared to put a lot of time and money in. Good Luck!
 
thanks so much for the reviews guys, i will edit the site this evening with all your feedback in mind :)
 
I havn't read what the other people have said because then I'll be influenced by what they say and I'll basically just repeat it lol ;D so yeah ;)

I like the layout - it's simple and works well, isn't too hard to find your way around because of the really clear navigation. I like the fonts which you used - simple and easy to read - it annoys me when people use really fancy curly fonts because I can't read them. On the 'Rates' page, the yellow writing is difficult to read on the green background. Why not just black? or, if you want it to stand out more (which is presumably why you used the yellow?) you could just put it normal, instead of italics like the rest of the writing is. Oh, and on the rehoming bit, it is very unlikely that people will pay to leave the piggy with you - afterall, they could sell them in the newspaper and get that £5 from the person who buys them. On the enquiry form, all looks good :) Only thing I say is it says 'Boarding or rehoming?' then the bit underneath just gives weeks, i think you need a bit that says 'N/A - rehoming' or something like that. Also, how about instead of weeks you say 'under one week', 'one - two weeks', 'two - three weeks', 'three weeks +' or something like that? Instead of telling them you have two hutches and a chicken run, how about just saying they will be inside a warm, waterproof, fox proof shed?
 
I have changed it around a bit, however i have no idea how to add the URL to members websites, where is that thread?
