Hello everyone,
First I would like to thank teamtreehouse and all their awesome training courses. I'm still continuing with them, though I have created my first website. I would like you to take a look and give me some feedback. I used what I learned in HMTL, CSS, PHP and MySQL. I still have a TON to lear but have begun. I have take what I have learned here and put it to use in a real world web page. Please let me know your thoughts and what you may think I can do better. Which I always know I can do better. Two pieces are not completed as of yet. The search function and then I was going to make a store. Though I did implement pieces of mike the frog's t-shirt store when you click on get it on a shirt.
Take a look and thanks for the feedback.

My opinion is your website could be a little bit enhanced.
DESIGN
Even if you want to achieve something very simple. You can still have simplicity and make this a little bit nicer. Still with the design, I would adjust the anchors for the pagination, I don't like the default styling of the pagination, maybe you should create something similar to the pagination of shirt 4 Mike as an exemple.
DEVLOPMENT
-Make it responsive, It's at the moment and nowadays something that must be done.
-Adjust the error system with your form, at the moment, If I type bad information inside the form, the error is displayed in a separated page, with 0 design implemented, try to display the error message next to the form. On the same page, this way people don't need to hit the back arrow to go on the previous page which is your form. Usually you need to check the datas/user inputs through your browser with Javascript and as well with the server as you did with PHP. So add Javascript verification as well if possible.
Lastly It's great you've done it, that's really a good start as a first website, keep this up.

28,736 PointsNo problem, I'm learning as well and I know how much I appreciate comments on my works to get better. I want to add as well that if you follow the PHP track and the course focusing on building the Shirt 4 Mike website. It explains how to implement the error message directly in a div next to the form, in case you haven't watched these videos yet... I followed all of them and I learnt many things, I guess you'll learn a lot too.
