Hello d1zl3,

First I'd like to say I like the concept. I'm a fan of auctions both live and online. The layout of the auction is pretty user friendly.

I did notice that I had a hard time reading the text if the background was the diagonal stripes (such as on the "help" page). Maybe a larger font would help this problem. Also (I'm not sure what causes this) the characters on the help page become "garbled" such as:
Quote:
Item Watching
The item watch features lets you keep a close eye on any auction without having to place a bid on it. This feature means you can be kept up to date on how an auction is doing and prepares you to place a winning last minute bid. You can watch any auction by clicking on the “Watch this item†link on any auction page.

§ Home page featured
§ Category featured
§ Bold text
§ Highlighted background
· Set start/end time:-


Maybe someone can tell us what causes that. Could be my system reading the characters incorrectly

I agree with tatonka, the background is very distracting. I would suggest you choose 2 colors that don't clash as much. when having background patterns like that, it is always better to make them faint so they don't distract from the site.

A site for auctions? That's cool. Good thing you've improved the background of it.
