Nice piece of work there Data, it's clean and tidy very easy to use and displays all the right information.  :sign-great-job:

Looks great  :thumbsup:

Curious about how you are going to implement the search...  :scratch-head:

Thanks chaps, I try to keep sites with a "less is more" and "pictures paint a thousand words"  type design.

@ Freddy, I will be using something like this for the search.

Well done, Data. Clean, with elements of both "industrial" and "show".

I have to say, though, that the search bar looks silly on such a small site. :P

Thanks again chaps  :)

I have my reasons for the search, not really sure it looks silly, I thought it looked neat and the customer likes it, think of it as there should it be needed as more pages get added over time.  :thumbsup:

I didn't mean silly with respect to appearance, really. More in function than form; so if more pages are added to a site (a blog, for example), then it becomes a useful addition. With respect to appearance, it adds to the overall balance of the site, and looks like it "belongs", so that's a plus. :)

The search feature is now working on this new site.

The reason it didn't to start with is because you must first get the site on to google before it will return any pages.
