i know it sounds really superficial, but i never buy software from a site that isn't properly designed. To me design is the first thing you see when you go shopping or are looking for a product, and if the design is poor, then the product must not be up to standards either....just the way I think

In all my years of buying things, i have gotten ripped off or bought shitty products from more shitty designed sites than professionally designed sites

I am not saying your product is shitty by any means....just curious as to why the site is like that?
Well the answer to your question is simple... I'm not a web site designer and the site is ugly on purpose because it's main focus is to simply provide information about the software... I have several other sites and they're all fairly 'simple' because I just don't have an 'eye' for design... my artistic talents are more musically inclined... But I can write the hell out of a database applicatiion!

I'm looking at getting a web site design in place but since I'm 'graphically challenged' I have to figure out how in the heck to afford a good design. I'm hoping to get the cartoon image done and then perhaps build the site design around that.

My other sites are www.clariondeveloper.com, www.singularvisionsoftware.com, www.firewallreporting.com (my first site), www.wepkeygenerator.com and www.thevideoprofessorscam.com So you can see I have several sites and they are all basically ugly. MS Frontpage is not my favorite piece of software.
