P.S. if you've read this far, I'd be keen to get your feedback on the website. My question is.. which of the two links above do you prefer i.e. first link has a list of products and details...
...or the second link where you've got lots of pictures which you click on to get more details. Please let me know.

I prefer the first website. I like to look at tall the pictures, but I like to do it at my pace and the first website choice is less cluttered and overwhelming. I'm sure others will prefer the second one and it wouldn't turn me away, but the first one would get my vote.
Nice kits and I did see something I hadn't seen before. The long stitch kits. Very interesting and different.

I prefer the second web site as I can quickly flick through and then enlarge anything of interest.

I prefer the second website. I find it better to look at thumbnail pictures and then look further at designs that catch my eye.

:wub: Loving that wolf! Might be ordering that soon!

I'd vote for the second one too -- it means I can cast a quick eye over all of them, then pick the ones that interest me and click on them for more info.

Much prefer the second one as I can look at more pictures in a shorter timespan.

Thanks everyone for your feedback. Much appreciated. The second layout is my preferred layout on pages with lots of kits as I can show them all on one page and like you say you can glance over the kits of interest. When there are only a few kits on a page I tend to go with the first layout. I was worried that people might not like the second layout, but glad to hear you do. That's put my mind at rest.

Just to let you know I've just launched the Maia Winter 2011 Collection. I realise it's still summer so chance to get these early :-)

You can take a look at the latest Maia Winter 2011 Collection here:
Maia 2011 Winter Collection

It's got some great cross stich kits and there's a few beautiful needlepoint tapestry kits by Keith Mallett and Nel Whatmore (bottom of the page).
