Re: Nursery Home Page

Your site manager likely knows something I don't, but it sounds like semantic gibberish to me to say you shouldn't have a home page. Your first page will be your home page no matter what it's called. Which means how it looks and functions and informs will be how most customers come to think of you. I agree with you--plainly marked, easily opened doors.

Thanks, Jim
	Took a look at both. Was not familiar with Whitman. Never occurred
for me to use PDF. My site manager seems to think there should be no
"portal" or home page as such as it is just another step away from real contents. Wants to jump right in...lots of stuff up front. I feel simplicity 
and plainly marked attractive doors to open ... we will see.

What Judy said. But I'd add Raintree and Whitman Farm.

Main thing is the sites are easy to navigate, easy to find what you're
looking for.

What Kitty said about pdf catalogs, I agree... but I understand why
nurseries use them. They seem unaware, however, that in pdf format the
table of contents rarely matches the file; most annoying.
