Put your legal disclaimers link on the top of EACH and EVERY article page and your T&C on any page that even mentions a specific orderable product, but for heaven's sake keep them OFF the top of the home and index pages (you might wish to put them immediately below your company blurb on the home page and also put them up with a check box 'I have read and understood . . .' as part of the ordering process).

PS - love the feedback! As suggested below, my lawyer wanted me to
have the 'click here' to proceed to the web site after acknowledging
the legal stuff. I thought that was a bit too much (only the giant
corporate web sites go to that legal extreme) and would turn off too
many visitors. I do try to improve and work on the site nearly
everyday, but of course product (epoxy) and service have to come
before web play.

We reckon you've put enough back into the boating community to deserve our help. Any time you want to get opinions on new pages before you link them to the rest of the site, just ask us.

I perhaps didn't make myself clear. The 'tick to proceed' should only be when an order is actually being placed. Its *NOT* a seperate screen, but just another box on the ordering screen. You could do it as a link to your T&C and disclaimers, targetted to open in a new window so they dont loose their place in the order form, next to the check box, but the lawyer would prefer it inline. If your ordering process tracks user ID's, put the full text up for their first order and if the T&C's have been updated, otherwise just show the link and checkbox.

ON NO ACCOUNT put click to proceed on the home page, NO ONE except lawyers will read it and it will piss people off even worse, but I'm sure you already know that.

If I was doing business in the USA, I'd be listening *very* carefully to my layer too . . .
