Hi,
I would really appreciate some feedback on the following site:
Light-a-Candle (http://lightacandle.dotsphinx.com)
Especially the German translation could use some reviewing.
Thanks in advance,

1. Are you promoting your guestbook or your wishcandle service? The way the main graphic is laid out it looks like the items in the foreground are supposed to be prominent even though you might have intended the central candle to be the focal point.
2. The German translation is very good for someone that might have learned it as a 2nd language but it makes my toes curl to read it as an almost-native speaker. I recommend finding a native German somewhere who can help you, especially with the grammar and common usage. Also, you might want to take a look through a lot of German websites to find common internet terms used in Germany instead of doing straight translations of American internet slang (about, read guestbook, etc.)

Thanks for your comments.
I am indeed promoting wish candles more than the guest book. However, signing the guest book and viewing it are related to each other, whereas sending a wishcandle is not related to these activities. Therefore, I though it best to align the related activities (horizontally). You do have a point though, but I am not sure whether I can deal with the alignment breakage.
The German translation will be fixed hopefully in the near future.
Regards, Raymond.
