Hey Dale, interested in a revamped website? I like DHPOS so much I'm willing to donate free time to help make a more livid website for you... here's a sample of my work...

Offer

ProDeZigner,

Thanks for the offer and I have to admit that your sample looks nicer than my current site.

But what can I say, I like mine. Think of my site as the DOS of webpages. Not fancy but it gets the job done. And new users will not be sucked in by the webpage into thinking that they will be getting some whiz-bang latest Windows software only to find that the POS software is just some DOS thing that just does the job.

Dale

Something cleaner yet simple?

Maybe even like a DOS based page, simple sprites and etc.

I like the current site, we've discussed this many times before - the general consensus always being that if we had a flashier page most users don't believe the software is free, or like Dale says is whizzbang windows crud.

I certainly find most software gems on less professional sites like Dale's - if it looks too slick I assume it's too good to be true.

that's true too Andrew, the design of sites is how I can tell how 'professional' a company is. If the site looks not up to par I don't order anything from them.

Just to let you guys know though, my design expertise is always available to you all.
