Hi there. I am looking for both good and bad feedback for my site. We have been open since late 2007, but I have been trying to continue to make the store look professional.

Some things I have added:
-lighbox picture application (checkout the "View Larger Picture" on product pages
-SpryAssets MenuBar

Some things I don't like about my site:
-I can't figure out how to put that Search Bar Closer to my menu bar.
-Homepage

The site is www.spectrumsupply.com

Thanks for your help!

You have this line in your header HTML:
CODE
<div style="width: 803px; height: 200px;" id="headercontainer">

Get rid of the height:
CODE
<div style="width: 803px" id="headercontainer">

Not sure why it does it, but your store has too much white space on the left. It should center in the browser. I am not using 1024x768 but people that do will have problems viewing your page

The white space is because the width is set to 75%, but the contents of the page (images and such) are wider than the set width. Set it to 90% or more, it looks good and your customers with larger browser windows will appreciate the space.

Guess what I did on a Monday afternoon night ok... all day?

I redid it: http://www.spectrumsupply.com/

The products will look like this: http://www.spectrumsupply.com/rcseries-enerpac.aspx

Anyone see any problems? I still hate how my homepage looks. I can never figure out what I should put on it. I end up either having too much, or too little.

Let me know... I'm going to get a drink (it's 5'o'clock somewhere... just not here)

I like the dotted lines on either side. Subtle concept.

Overall I think the design looks masculine and industrial. Well done!

My only suggestion would be to re-do the buttons to fall in line with your brand. i.e. same or similar font, monochromatic.
