In article , CatNipped
writes My company is merging with another company and I'm doing the web site for the "new" company. I've never done a web site for this type of company before (we sell, lease, repair, transport, and rent storage space for shipping containers - the kinds you see on ships and the "bed" part of 16-wheelers), so I'm a bit lost as to getting the "look and feel" right. Also, this is a more male-dominated industry so, although I would like everyone's opinion, I especially need a guy's point of view. Please, *please* be very honest in your opinions - I'm a web architect and I do this all the time, so I don't get emotionally involved with my designs. If a customer tell me "that looks like crap" I just scrap the design and start over without ever a hurt feeling. Here's the site: http://www.cgini.com/ Thanks in advance! Hugs, CatNipped Sorry about this. Lots of words but very little substance e.g. [New company name] formed on 1st September 2004, from Global Intermodal Systems (GIS) and Container Care International (CCI). [New company name] has 30 facilities and offices located throughout the United States, Mexico and Costa Rica, ....... Always use the New company name and use it lots. -- Zaax http://www.ukgatsos.com |

Its kinda disconcerting that you don't know whether you've selected it or not.... Other than that, looks clean and proffesional. I'll let you know how it loads on crappy dial-up tonight. Yowie |

I love the little truck convoy for the tabs, or whatever you call them. I was looking forward to seeing the other pages, but I guess they are not ready yet. Annie |

Oops, forgot to say, this is just the graphics / layout design - I put the
merger blurb on the front page just as "filler". Hugs, CatNipped "zaax" wrote in message ...

"CatNipped" wrote in message ... OK, my boss just said, "those trucks you have on the menu are *not* container chassis trucks, they're regular semis." !!!????! He must know what he's talking about, he knew the difference at a glance, but I have *NO* idea what he means - and I can't find any pictures of a "container chassis" truck!!! *SIGH* Hugs, CatNipped Damn. We had one accross the street last week. Neighbor is moving to Hawaii and they left the container for several days and just picked it up Friday. COuld have provided a picture.
