Its pretty standard, does the job. Now we're moving into the territory of having it stand out. My rule is basically: no Flash, no major loading, no plugins. So yeah... how do I get fancier? Massive credit to Keanu for building most of the site with my advice. -------------------- ![]() | ||

Website looks great. It is extremely easy to navigate and it is to the point. I can't think of anything that you could add. -------------------- ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() | ||

But then there were those 2 details that destroyed the whole image... http://img830.imageshack.us/img830/9817/unbenanntde.png first of all, the writing of your quotation looks kind of cheap and the green quotation marks don't help either. now the rest (banner, interface etc) looks really elegant. And for me elegant means slim, simple, not more than necessary...and now i look at your headline design and it doesn't look like that at all. Keep it simple, one slim, dark grey line does much more than a failed 3D headline. then we come to the next page. First of all in my opinion the writing, especially headlines, is way to big. http://img834.imageshack.us/img834/7808/unbenanntgx.png Second, there is no symmetry, red writing isn't centered, no space left on the far upper left side and no space at all on the right side. The recordings/music samples aren't centered either. And as i have already mentioned, the 3D headline has to gtfo. don't take it personaly or anything, that are just things that bother me. -------------------- ![]() ![]() | ||

When you first load the page, you see the information, but no navigation nor header image; its all black. This is rectified many seconds later when everything loads, but until that time, it just looks... odd. I suggest A, having Keanu use an <img> tag for the header image -instead- of adding it as a background. This will maker it show up as it loads(and not just as a missing space until its done). B, I'd take a page out of Runescape.com's book, and make the navigation usable even without the images having loaded(use text links, and either have the full image load over top of it, or just have a background-image load and have all text as html text, vs text in an image). If you don't understand quite what I mean, go and turn off "automatically load images" in your Firefox options. This will simulate images not having loaded. Go visit Runescape.com. The site doesn't look quite as nice, but you can still use it. Your site? Not usable at all. 2. The header image is too large. It takes up like half a window vertically. Go for something 200-250px tall at most - In addition to reducing page load time, it will put the content you care about more at "eye level", instead of down at the middle of the page. 3. The three lines of text right under "Services" on the services page. They aren't in any sort of container, and it just looks sort of tacky. That sort of thing happens on a couple more pages also, IIRC. -------------------- Old Avatar - Paypal donation link ![]() I am left handed, and proud of it! Retired from RuneScape.
