still thinking a couple belts will be cool to have. may place an order in a few weeks.

don't usually wear anything like watches or anything on my wrists but I like the look of the braclets. may grab one if I go with the belts.

Awesome to hear man! Wait until you use the chopping lanyard. I can't chop without one anymore!

I have made some updates to the site to make it more visually appealing and I am working on adding galleries for each individual type of gear (already added a D-Guard Gallery.) I am looking into coding up some other cool features that should make the site more usable and better all-around.

I am having a lot of fun making this site when I have the free-time. I'd really like to make it as good as it can be, but with limited time it is taking me a long time to get there. The feedback of you Dogs cannot be more appreciated and has been incredibly helpful!

Let me know if there's anything else you would change, or if there are some other features you would add if it was your site. Thanks!

first thing I thought when I went to the site.. "I don't remember a drop shadow..." then i relized its one of the things you changed. looks cool.

one thing i noticed is that the site is loading slower than I remember. I'm on my phone and it usually loads okay. don't knownif it's the images or what. one thing I have started using is image data strippers. they remove the unnesscesary data from image so they are smaller and load faster. they usually don't affect the image quality an in some cases cut image sizes down significantly. really helps with photo heavy sites.

That's a really good idea Lazi. I noticed the loading lag as well, which I don't like and am trying to fix; a site with a lot of images should load the page content and then display it. I don't like how you can see the page loading the contents.

I will definitely take your advice and strip the photos. Thanks for the feedback!

Just a personal opinion, I would like to see a product or two on the front page. I appreciate the introduction but I'm coming there to buy stuff. Most people are not patient and want one click ordering. I want to see, click buy. I want instant gratification. If only the bills got sent somewhere else.

A description of custom work & requests is missing as well.

Good call on putting some pictures on the first page. I do plan on adding a checkout system when I get the free time. I don't get much of that these days, unfortunately.

Thanks a lot for the feedback! It is definitely most appreciated.
