If your live shops description is in a language other then English, please use a free translation service to provide a description of what you are selling in English. All too often when reviewing live shop directory submissions I run into submissions that are in a foreign language that I do not recognize. Sometimes, these entries contain products in which I have no clue as to what they actually are. This makes it hard when selecting an appropriate category for the entry. So to ensure that your store gets placed in the appropriate category, please include a description of what your store is selling in English.

After reviewing several live shops directory submissions, these two stores stood out.

Didier Goubet
Didier Goubet has a very nice header and makes good use of icons on the right infoboxes.
To the left there is a very nice rotating picture.

Kaizen Health
A very nice header and layout. A very clean overall design.
Kaizen Health has a really nice rotating sub-header.

Although both sites have a unique design they both are not designed for a 800 X 600 resolution screen.

Hi All!

I added some more sites today to the Live Shops and really liked artistri. It has been really stripped down but since it is showcasing art this really works well.

The lack of all the side boxes, and navigation all being at the top of the site kept me focused on looking at the art and not distracted by lots of stuff I am not interested in. Not all types of stores could pull off this layout and have it work for them but it definately works for this website.
