Requesting a newbies site review

Hello,

I would like a site review for my home page. The site is http://www.crazyfangear.com and it is a site to sell major college and pro sports fan apparel and merchandise. I know, zillions of sites out their doing this, but it was a site I had with a Yahoo store, and it had a PR of 3, so I thought I would just continue it for the time being.

Anyhow, all of the links don't work right now except for the Air Force Falcons under the College drop down NAV. All of the pages has a similar look, so I am going to complete the pages after the reviews.

My problems like anyone else would be driving traffic Smile. However, specifically, I'd like critiques on the looks and feel of the site, I'm trying to figure a way to create a mailing list. Since the site really hasn't any content outside of product, I'm not sure what angle other than new product information to use for the mailing list request.

Also, I am currently using GoldenCAN feeds, but will be moving to a MySQL/PHP to feed the products. Does anyone think that is worth the time an effort or stick with the GC feed? The company I'm affiliated with doesn't allow for PPC advertising, so I was thinking of starting a blog to try to promote the site.

Does anyone out there have vendors they work with that doesn't allow PPC? I was kind of surprised when they told me of the change to their Terms and Conditions.

Thanks,

I'm probably too much a newbie to reply, but is there going to be other items or content at the top of the page? Or are you putting everything for sale at the bottom of the page for a reason?

Jodi,

Nope, I must be having a problem with Internet Explorer. I made some changes yesterday, and I forgot to test all browsers.. It works fine with my Firefox browser..

Thanks, I will update when it is fixed.

UPDATE: IE Browser problem should be fixed.

Please review my site. Especially for look, feel, and navigation. I am going to be adding a sign-up request soon, but I know it isn't there yet.
