You have done much work by creating 2 custom components but you used a ready template. I would like to see it more customized in order for the site to gain a unique style. Also I don't get the number shown on mouse over next to the menu items on menu "Объявления". It is the number of spare parts for each category? If yes, then ok it is good, but not all visitors will understand what this number is. Finally the banners at the top of the page would be better to display them only in frontpage. For the inner pages better show them in a column rather in the center top area.

I advice you to share/sell the "notice" component. Also in order to get rid of the "com_notice" in the URL register a SEO PRO base name for the component in includes/sef.php file. This way you can have URLs like:

transport35.ru/notice/... or transport35.ru/cars/... or transport35.ru/anything/...
instead of
transport35.ru/com_notice/...

If you plan to share/sell this component then tell me the SEO PRO base name you want to use in order to include it in the Elxis 2009.3 release so future users wont have to patch sef.php file.

Conclusion: good job, rich content, needs some css customization.

This is the number of ads. I agree that you must add these numbers transcript

It is the wish of the customer.

It is a rich site even i don't know russian to read the content. You should remove one from two "directions to the top" you have set at the bottom.

For better look also at the top frontpage is better to use a slider module to show banners, than this you have done, where user has to slide the horizontal bar left or right to see all.

All the rest is a good job.

Hi, this is a nice and well-looking site. I agree about the slider module to show banners. Have thought something like carouFredSel (http://caroufredsel.frebsite.nl/)? It's easy to intergrade in Elxis.
