Me again,

 

I just got this site design more or less finished but there is proberbly room for improvement. Let me know what you guys think please!

Thanks for you time

You've done a very nice job of this site, but I do have a couple of suggestions:

The header could do with being slighly nearer the top of the page, unless you increase the size of the white margin all around the container.

Is it just an optical illusion, or is the header a couple of pixels wider than the blue footer graphic?

I think the design would benefit from the edge of the photo on the left being in line with the edge of the header/ footer. Possibly also giving some left/ right margin on the navigation areas.

I would definitely add a bit of padding to the small print - it looks a bit cramped squashed up against the edges of the page.

Lastly, I got a 404 page not found on your contact us page.

Other than that, nice colours, nice clean layout, excellent content area. Good stuff!

It's neat and presentable, but not too memorable. The imagery is all typical stock photo stuff, and the rounded corners and gradients are pretty common these days. There are a couple of individual touches, like the spacing around the menu bars, but they almost look like mistakes (I loaded it up in IE to make sure they were supposed to be there).

 

There's a bit too much fading going on, it looks kinda foggy. Also think you could do more with that left-hand image. Having the same one on every page looks a bit lazy. It'd be more interesting if the image changed, and possibly had some important text picked out (like a quote).

 

The white space below the content is a bit distracting (I'm on 1280x1024, so about 25% of the page height is blank)
