I'm blinded!

Seriously though, you simply cannot get a decent website from a free website builder.

Good to see Steve, but from a 'looks' point of view I think the background on every page is a bit busy and detracts from the lovely pics. I'd keep the 'wallpaper' to home page personally. Wink

PS forgot to say, I like the 'eye' in the corner with the skin pattern circles, maybe focus on that as a logo.

If you want some constructive criticism to make it look more professional:

LOSE THE BACKGROUND!!! Nothing says amateur more than a tiling wallpaper image. Go for a solid neutral colour!

Get rid of the comments box or move it to another page, the first thing you want people to see are some of the snakes you have available, GRAB them the second they eneter your website.

Pay a few quid a month and have a properly hosted website to remove the banners and Freewebs nonsense at the top.

Just my comments based on years of experience, take them or leave them Smile
