I went and looked over the site. I just wrote up what I noticed
quickly, hope it's helpful.
The first thing I can say is;
1) No ORDER/REORDER button/link on the first page. Also presumably
customers have a login - the 1st page hasn't any MEMBER/CUSTOMER link
or button, or even a login link/button.
2) Perhaps make the SIGN UP and UPLOAD elements banner style buttons
that you stack on the right side along with a MEMBER or CUSTOMER
button. Or consider putting another button bar above, or under, the
other with these.
3) Consider moving the logo over to the left where it is customarily
and to the left of that put the "Welcome to" text stacked right next
to it. This will give you a little more room in the left side text box
so perhaps you can use larger text. Move the "Home" button down where
most people look for it - on the button bar. You have enough room to
get it in. Stating the AUST. and "online" are redundant. I think
people know where they are from the url, and apparently the site is
online.
3) Maybe a grammatical error in the home page left side text box.
"PocketMedia is" rather than "PocketMedia are". Perhaps the text was
changed and the grammar was overlooked. Additionally watch the
punctuation, commas in correct places help the user in readability.
Now...
"Pocket Media are committed to providing you with a range of quality
products, services and affordable marketing solutions."
Perhaps...
"Pocket Media is committed to providing you with a range of quality
products, services, and affordable marketing solutions."

Now...
"Our marketing and advertising products are consistently put directly
into the hands and pockets of tourists and residents throughout
Australia"
Perhaps...
"Our marketing and advertising products are consistently put directly
into the hands, and pockets, of tourists and residents throughout
Australia"
This last punches up some emphasis on what the product is, by making
sure the reference to "pockets" is made clear.
4) On the right side of the Home page there is the box where you have
"See Restaurant Featured Brochure", a large space, and more text. I
keep wondering if there should be something in that space, I hovered
the mouse over it to see if anything popped up. If there is no reason
for the space then bring the headline and the text closer together -
get that "white" space balanced. I also wonder about that blurry image
on the far right.
5) Upload page hits you like a brick. What font is that? It cannot be
the same as the other pages. It doesn't look like it and feels
disconnected somehow. Use the font used on all the other pages.
6) Have someone who is really strong in proofreading go over the site
for grammar and punctuation. There are more errors, but I really don't
want to list them all here.
At any rate - the design of the site is very nice barring what's stated above.
First look is - wow!
I really like the product from the presentation and am intrigued by
the whole idea. I want some pocket borchures from my local merchants!
