Some hosting layout

Hey guys! I am new here... I work with Telemakhos at SwankStudios. Just made this recently... wondering what you guys thought and what I should change.

sweet. like it alot.

maybe if you want try changing the font a bit.

Wow, chill out on the copyright, lol.

haha, just filled it with a water mark. :p

looks pretty cool. my only suggestion would be to add a little depth to the hosting pkg "folders" at the bottom.

1) The header...its played. I can find 80,000 just like it. Its also empty...a small graphic and a title isnt close to enough to fill it out.

2) The three lines on top conflict with the 45 degree angle and the "flow" of it gets all messed up. Your eyes immediately go from left to right(cause the lines are the first thing u see)....but the angle wants your eyes to go left, up and right.....basically they "visually" crash into each other....instead of leading your eyes around the design to all the elements.

3) The dots on the content tabs and the menu are not needed...as they will make the info harder to read. U already have a gradient that will (not much....but it will) make it less readable to begin with. Things like that u want as legible as possible. Also those dots are very common.

4) About the menu...not sure if you did it cause its a sample layout....but u should never have to label your navigation/menu. If you have to tell users how to use it.....then it doesnt work as a design.

5) as said before...the font. The font's fine for a title..but for headers/important information (like copyright) u want basic fonts (again..as legible as can be).

6) Maybe a little more contrast with the colors (hard to tell due to you watermarks)....but the overall design looks a little washed out/faded

7) Why the inner bevels and the flat header? (except for the dropshadow). For consistency u should try to stay with 1 look.

Thanks rodder, I will look into those once I get home from school.

woa rodder... remind me to get you to look at my next site
