Please review my new website. I switched from a weebly template to word press. Thanks ProTech Support for your help last night.

Not bad. Good choice making it responsive; it renders well on my Droid. Try converting your logo to a .png with a transparent background. It will look better against the gray behind it on your site.

My advice is to slow the slider down a bit. It's tough to read the entire slide(s) at the speed it is at now. I would also take your logo out of the slider and replace it with something else. These suggestions are based on my opinion and I am no designer or artist by any means. I think it looks pretty good.

Changed my logo in the header to png and I am trying to figure out what to do on the third slide and also trying to figure out how to slow that thing down.

Nice, but I'm not sure about the yellow text. Also, I'd put your phone number nice and big at the top there.

Could you remove the comment boxes on each page? They won't be needed and will just fill up with SPAM quickly.

I didn't check the copy, but everything else looked pretty good. The two column later under Local Support looked rough on my iPad, but that may be an iPad specific problem.

I'm really new to wordpress, so do you happen to know how to remove this boxes

I wonder if the boxes are because you are using posts rather than pages? Posts are oriented towards blogs. I am new at WordPress myself so could be wrong. I also noticed there is HTML towards the bottom of the pages.

No I was using pages, and I figured out how to remove the comment boxes. Also please point me to the HTML you are talking about.

 

[Slaters Kustum Machines]

I no longer see the HTML, maybe it was tied to the comment boxes?

 

[brandont]

Oh yea I remember seeing that it was tied to the comment boxes. I think it was tags for the comments

One other thought. On the remote support page you may want to move terms and conditions to a separate page. Also, I'd recommend collecting at least their basic info before letting them download. You may even want to make it so they have to call to schedule an appointment first. That would be my preferred method.

Thanks Parkwaytech, I changed it so they filled out the form, then I will call them.

Any other suggestions? Thanks for your help guys!

The ACRBO logo looks out of place. I would either use the white logo or at least center the logo within the box so there is white space evenly around it.

How bout now

How does my website look now, I have made a few changes. I still have not figured how to slow the banners down though, any suggestions on this.

 

[angry_geek]

Much better! You may try to get your slider to fill that gray space a little more, though.

 

[brandont]

Thanks angry_geek. As the slider is part of my theme I would not even know where to begin to try to make it larger. Any ideas?

I'm as new as you to WordPress. The jquery files are somewhere in there. You edit them in NotePad. I'm not at the office to look at my notes at the moment.
