Hi. I'm Miles, and pretty new to this site, recommended to me by the one and only UraniumHobo (Brandon). Legend. There's no better place to be asking these questions than here, so please read on... Straight to the point. I really need you to help me. Yes you. I have recently started a business, Zen Cat's, and we sell quality organic body jewellery here in the UK. Everything from small shell pinchers for septums, to horn talons, and huge plugs and tunnels. It is based on the internet at the moment, and the shop can be found at www.zencats.co.uk You see what you buy, everything is packaged safely, and sent out first class the day you order, so it's usually there within 2 days, if not the next day (especially if you're in the UK). I'd love it if you could give me some feedback - yes you, you're the ones who the jewellery is for! What do you think of the plugs and tunnels, the look and feel of the site, is it user-friendly etc... Take a look around and explore... I built it myself, with very little knowledge of websites at all. Let me know your thoughts. Either post me a reply here, on my page, or you can find us at myspace.com/zencats if you aren't already on there?! Basically, I need to know that the business will work... I put all my time and effort into it, still not been to sleep yet in the last 36hrs, (which isn't that rare for me), and I have no other 'day job'. The business has been set up solely by myself, with my money, and very little help from elsewhere. I'm out and about at tattooists, shops, gigs, art galleries or recording/playing music when I'm not online, so I'm working pretty hard. I'm wondering, if I'm the only one with these plugs and tunnels in the UK (material, size and quality), is that for a reason? Will you purchase some, would you? This is all research and feedback, not a sales pitch. By all means, grab a bargain if you fancy one though! The modification of bodies is important to me, and so is advising others as I learn. It's a long journey, not one to be burnt out quickly. Sincerest thanks and peace, sorry this is so long. Miles. Zen Cat's. To make it more fun, tell us a joke along with your reply after you take a look... ;) Here's one to start... What do you call two Mexicans playing basketball? Juan on Juan. ------------- It's not the fall that matters. It's the landing. |

I didn't look too much at the plugs, because I hate to look when I can't afford at the moment. The site however looks amazing. :D I especially love that you can choose the currency you want displayed. I hate always having to convert each price mentally to Canadian Dollars, so that's awesome dude. My only suggestion is that your logo looks a bit blurry. If the site gets big and popular, people are gonna want ZenCat Merch, which requires a clear logo. :D Other than that, it's deadly stuff, and the jewellery looks sweet, I'll definitely take a better look once I have some $$ ------------- http://www.bodymod.org/profiles/profile~ID~29919.aspx">

The plugs look awesome! I will definitely buy some when my lobes are a little bigger gauge. The site loads a little slowly for me but that's probably just my connection. ---------- Edit; I ended up getting a little taper anyway. I love that I can pay with PayPal. :) |

The site looks good. I would agree with the earlier statement about the logo, but apart from that, it's easily navigable and probably much better laid out than a lot of the bigger companies sites. Your prices are also very good. This has been added to my bookmarks and as soon as I get my right ear to the size I want there wil be an order going in. Keep up the good work man! ------------- Windows has detected a mouse movement. Please restart windows for changes to take effect. |

I have to agree completely on this. The site logo needs a retouch, other than that i like how the site is done and everything else. You should start making labret plugs too. |

your site is very nice and your products are even better the one thing that could be improved is if you had some of the plugs and tunnels in multiple gauges and maybe some more smaller stuff------------- Games over losers I've got all the money. Compare your Lives to mine and then Kill yourself! |

I took at a look earlier when I saw a post of yours. I really like a lot of your plugs and once I get to a size I'm going to stay at for awhile I'll definitely buy some off you even though I usually make my own tunnels. I'm currently downsizing a bit. So, no new jewelery for awhile =( |
