Dale,

While your software is great and easy to understand, your website seems a bit cluttered, no offense.

Can I help you revamp your web site? It can help even more people learn about POS and get involved in the community.

Cluttered

Guest,

Thanks for the offer but I am a cluttered kind of guy so the website accurately reflects me.

And I sort of like it the way it is anyway.

Cluttered?

I've never had a navagational problem on the site....standard navagational links on the left, labeled clearly, no dead links/wrong links.

Perhaps you mean it's basic...no cool graphics, no fancy fonts. Well, this it may not be, but it's still fucntional, gets the point across, and reminds me of the websites of days gone by.

Of course you could use, and if memeory serves several people have, said the same thing about the software itself. It's all DOSey, just text, no graphics, no pointing device, no touch screen option. Yet amazingly enough, in all it's archaicness it gets the job done. Plus, the simplicity is appealing. Afterall, shouldn't the focus of a POS system be the numbers, not to impress your friends and family with pretty pictures?

No, I dont mean fancy graphics; I am in fact talking about navigational issues.

While the pos.htm page is good, the main page, in my perspective, has a lot of information all at once. For example, the "FREE! Got your attention?" sign has lost some of its effectiveness due to all the information.

However, it is not a major problem. I will respect Dale's decision, for he is the Great One.
Sincerely,
Mr. 74

Works fine for me, if it ain't broken don't fix it. Really, it is nice and simple, not a lot of things to distract me.

Keep up the good work :D
