    Hi Stephen,

    You have improved the desing a lot and it's look very pleasing and engaging to me, however, I still have few of my suggestion which will help you to reach at a level when we can say "excellent design"

    • Navigation font looks a bit thick try to make it a bit thinner...

    • "Go to Checkout" section seems lost in top right may be try using black colour or mid tone

    • Trying adding some breathing space... first fold seems too busy, I think instead of using the 4 products you can show three which will help to create some space or may be you can make it slider if you want to show more product that can be managed in a slider as slider will help you show more product within minimum space... check the following link for the sample type which will help you understand that what I am talking about : http://nettuts.s3.amazonaws.com/358_jquery/example%20files/all-examples.html http://www.sohtanaka.com/web-design/examples/image-slider/ http://fredhq.com/projects/roundabout/#demo http://addyosmani.com/resources/fluid-menu/fluid-menu.html http://www.slidedeck.com/

    I think you have overused the gradient in each element which is why it’s look a bit complex and busy, I think try avoiding the background gradient and use a bit subtle gradient to stand out your product more, use the gradient just to support your design

    -I think you can fade in the your main container with the grey colour which will I think will give more space to playaround because you will have the approx 50px space wasted which can be utilized properly. I like the slide deck design very much and that should help you in terms of giving the breathing space and also for footer style, as of now footer looks plain and simply needs rework

    Hope this helps
