- Clear and simple design. Easy to use.
- Biggest issue is page load time >25s when I test it at GTmetrix. Look at the timeline there for clues why. My guess is html generation is taking too long due to something like category counting. Look in extensions store for the free one that truely turns of category counting. If that doesn't help consider one of the html pagecaching extensions.

- Logo rather blurred.

- Does not resize if adjust browser window size. Indicates it is not a responsive design so may be hard to use on a smartphone. Make sure you test on smartphones.

Logo has magenta fuzz which in reduction to top left instance does not work very well.

Rollover at 2 sec rather than standard 3 sec is too fast.

Slow. Loads 19-20 sec tested by watching Firefox 23.0.1 apparently seeing reverse proxy in Texas for box in Mumbai.

Thank you guys. The site loading time was OK from where I check it, but still I agree it needs improvement. So I installed http://www.opencart.com/index.php?route ... on_id=3703. Let us see if it improves the loading time.

Hi gemcart,

I like your website!

The logo is really out of place IMO, its colours have nothing to do with website blue colours.

I would get rid of google translate, it has nothing to do with your website, if I want to translate it I can simply right click.

Still a very good website ;)

When you are testing page load time looking at site in a browser, remember to first clear your browser cache. You may have been given a mistaken impression of it being faster than it is to new visitors if much of it is being served from your browser's cache.
A quick tip for doing this is to reserve one of your browsers (e.g IE) for site testing and configure it to clear the cache every time you close IE. Then when you open IE it will have an empty cache

Now in two tries 27 sec, then 34 sec, to load, speedup dinna help it. Logo is still not working, was fuzzily magenta-bordered, now magenta-faced and bordered in grey fuzz, not yet bold enough to be small, border outside lettering is working against it. Suggest no outer border, bolder color, enlarged logo.

Thank you,
The main defect per your posts is the logo and its color.
Now I changed it, (for better?). Now it is bigger, bolder, and in default colors.
