Pop Ups Out...

instead of pop-ups when you click on an individual soaps page for more info and to add to your cart were going to do a whole normal web page for it instead. Today we updated web pages and added the "view cart" to each page in the same spot by the other icons (twitter & blogger). We had a lot of fun the other night coming up with the descriptions and wording for each soap. I also created a "add to cart" icon that will be on every individual soaps product page in the same spot.

I don't know which version I like better... I'm thinking the one with more photos though even if the type in the description and "add to cart" have to be smaller. I emailed these versions to a couple people we'll see what they say.

More pages for our Website

Today I worked on designing the Products, Retailers and Contacts pages for the website. Shaun taught himself some more HTML skills and after an hour or 3 of trials and lots of errors my right sided brain and his left joined it was a miracle!

I think we have the overall look down now and he can start to get things linked and up and running.

Web Site Design

So after doing some research on companies in the Door County area I started designing the Peninsula Soap home page. I like the font but I'm still looking for one maybe a little easier to read but the P in the name in this font will be a really nice icon.

Also I want to look through my photo archives of Door County and get a sunset photo over the lake thats a little more vibrant... but I don't want it to compete with the clean artsy nature design. In the small boxes I'll have photos that depict the subject above them.

What do you think of it so far?
