we finally did a minor face lift to palmimports.

We also added new authorized vendors to include: epokerchips.com, coinforce.com and admagic.com

When ya have nothing to do- take a peek at our new site.

We still have some more work ahead of us- but the new site is alot easier to navigate.

We also give a warm welcome our new network of resellers

Huge improvement! I like all the organized information. I also like the flash chip images. If anything, I would suggest transitioning away from plain html pages to something like Drupal or Joomla (its really easy and it looks great).

Huh. I had never visited before, but if that is a huge improvement, I'm a little scared as to how it used to look. I don't think you need to get away from "plain html pages" (not really sure what you mean by that) but you probably should pay someone good money to redesign your site to look professional. Perhaps the improvement was made the the organizing of the information. If you end up looking for someone to redesign, let me know. I'd be happy to help.

Joe, you should have went with something like Joomla. Even a basic template would look better and you can have custom templates made. No offense meant but your web site looks alot like the web sites my Chinese friends setup for their businesses; fast, cheap and looking like it was made in 1995. I have some free time coming up. If you want to talk about service for service trade, PM me.

You may not have the best site on the market but still much MUCH better than the old site!!!

we didnt want anything sophisticated- its just an information site and one that we can make changes quickly if needed- our resellers are the ones who maintain the professional sites as theyre the ones who do the retail end- were just there for some information

we originally hired a Ca company do do this- but its 2-3 days everytime we needed to make ONE change etc- it would take forever if we cant have the capability of making changes here at our end.

If you you do a design whereby we can make minor changes when needed were all ears

You just need someone to set you up with a CMS (Content Management System) where you can change things easily. Talks of Joomla and Druple or even Wordpress or Textpattern should give you this ability. I designed a site for my church that lets the secretary make changes (who really doesn't know much about web sites). You just have to be willing to pay someone good money to do a nice job. As you know with anything, you get what you pay for... Feel free to PM me if you are interested. I'm currently in the middle of a project, but could get to you relatively soon...

It would take literally two minutes to have a Drupal site up and running if you have cpanel with your hosting account.

Simply open cpanel, go to fantastico, open drupal, click new installation, enter info, done.

I dont think godaddy supports this- correct me if I'm wrong- but I do NOT want to change from them for a few years-
If your sugegstion can be setup on their server-- we have a dedicated IP and are using a Linux front end/console- I am willing to speak with you-
I need a simple site- with a store if possible- where we can add items- we have a basic store we paid for from godaddy but havnt instituted it yet-
