19,392 PointsI was a little confused by the first page because I didn't know where to go. I would recommend, if you want to use that image, to make that image a header image for the about us page and viewers can scroll past it because right now, it is an extra step for your end-user to have to click through and think about where they need to go to find the information they're looking for.
Keep on trucking :-)

Good luck with all future projects!

5,332 PointsHi Ricky, Your site looks great! One suggestion to try, if nothing else, just to learn how to do it, is to slice up the background image, and make each section a link. You could have that part of the image enlarge (pop-out) on a mouse-over action, and maybe have it change color (or not, that may disturb the overall look of the image) to show that it has been clicked. I am thinking of having the image slices go to individual products, since the business sells jams and mixes, and the image shows jams and mixes, just as you would be in the store, looking at the bottles on the shelves, and select which one you want to buy. You could make the image slices large, so it would work well on a smartphone, small tablet. How does the image display on a phone? hmm, could be too detailed, too large? I am viewing your site on my laptop.
Plus, it makes it a fun game to mouse over the image, to see what might happen, what is hidden there.
Also, the logo image in the upper center could be a link to the 'about' page, and have an obvious link to the 'contact us' page there too, at the 'about' page..
Best regards!
