Well we have finally gone from a free hosted site to paying for it and I have it mostly complete. I was wondering if the members of fauna would take a look and let me know what looks good, what could be improved, etc...any input would be greatly appreciated. Thanks in advance. Our site can be seen here our website (http://www.herpsforu.com)

Paris,
Overall the site is very nice. Here are just a couple of things that I noticed.

1. The color scheme with the bright pink is a little hard on the eyes. You might consider softening it up a little.

2. On "Available Reptiles" amelinistic should be amelanistic.

3. On "Favorite Links" the link to Reptile Auction goes to their old site instead of the new site at: http://reptileauctions.com

4. On "Favorite Links" you might consider changer the link code so that the links are brought up on a separate page. That way, your visitor/customer doesn't actually leave your site. Change:
<A href="http://www.beardeddragons.biz/">www.beardeddragons.biz</A>

to

<A href="http://www.beardeddragons.biz/" target="_blank">
www.beardeddragons.biz</A>

5. On "Cornsnakes" you might consider adjusting the text alignment to reside directly below the pictures they describe. You might also consider some type of line break between the rows. Once you get past the first row, it becomes difficult to determine if the text belongs to the picture above or below.

6. For all of your crosses - putting a space between the crosses will make it easier to read. eg. SnowXSnow to Snow X Snow. This is especially significant on those with longer names.

Overall, the site is very nice. You have done a very good job.

I hope that some of these suggestions are helpful.
