I just wanted to pimp an online store that I just completed for my boss. He's starting a spinoff company that sells "geek" products and we're preparing to launch next month.

New products will be added daily and any recommendations would be appreciated. If you're interested in any of the products, make sure you use the discount code Geek2006 to receive a 10% discount on your order.

Here's the link: www.surfgeeks.com

Just a couple suggestions on the design end.

Regarding...

Your IP Address For security, your IP address is recorded as:"

In the bottom left corner. I would not show the actual IP address. Some people will frown on that.

Also the tables showing the products on the front page are a little big. Edit the images where they are all the same size.

Regarding the inventory. It is good to show items in stock but I would not list the amount.

Thanks for the suggestions Brent.

We've debated about whether or not we should display the IP address. Your comment helped make our decision - I'll remove it.

The image widths on the home page are all the same size. I can't do a percentage decrease because all the original images are different sizes.  If I set width and height, the images will not have the correct proportions. I'll have to try some different things.

The number of items in stock being displayed is out of my hands - my boss wants it.

I shrunk the images on the home page so that they look a little more uniform in size.
