I like the ticker there. I like to go to a site and bam, theres the deals, no searching, no hard to find information, it’s all there. I like this.

Anyway, that tip is a good one. I always want that too, so maybe it’s an idea to include that in the theme if I’m going to code.

I ‘m going to upload another version pretty soon.

- Border/frame around Photos: Correct, that’s one thing I forget
- I don’t think the search box is TOO large IMO. A search box in this kind of site is important: users would like to search for vacations and locations (when I browse travel sites I know I do).
- I will add some more style to the ”Check for availability” button.
- Maybe I can add the search box to the “left-sidebar”, under the “check for availability” box. And maybe add a “Deals” box up there.

I have to make sure it stays “simple” and not to cluttered. A clean and easy-on-the-eyes site is perfect for these kind of sites.

Anyway, thanks again for your feedback!

Tips:
-The photos should have some type of border/frame.
-Your search box/icon are way to big IMO.
-”Check for availability” link should be a styles button
-Move search to the right more and add a ticker(deals) to the left.

These are just a few of my thoughts that would make it better. The design you have now is simple easy to use and straight to the point. I think that is key to any site design. Good job and good luck with the contest.
