    Okay so there's been a few versions, but this is the second major design :p

    I'm going to be re-making parts of the site to make it tidier and code easier to debug...

    What do ya'll think?

    It is only a design, I've not started on implementing it yet...

    Looks very smooth! Would look great on green-black :p

    The wipe gap under the page is a bit strange, but im guessing it gets smaller as more content is added, and disapears when its longer than the browser height :D

    well done :D

    Yeah it's not fully finished, and with the content that gap'll be gone.

    As you know that I am fan of your drop shadow creations but I also like the buttons shadow effects in this one.
    graphics are cool but it looks unalligned to me. I mean, whole area on the right hand side is empty on the company's title and buttons.

    Do you mean the bar with the navigation and the header?

    If so what do you think should go there?

    Yup! I think buttons may be allright on the side but Header should be in the center like your Desolate Designs.

    Well I don't know what to tell you, I know it's not exactly exciting but I was going for stylish, simple and sleek.

    Oh well...

    I would like to give you an idea, if you dont mind.
    In the header, after the shadow design of Matt burnt.com, change the design. I mean do let it go same till the end. Something like TOMMY HILFIGER, Just the way they have changed the white to red, you choose something else. I believe it will eliminate the feelings of "missing something". What do you say?

    Possibly, and by these 'shadows' that you keep referring to do you mean the reflections of the text?

    I'm liking what you've done there Matt. It is very sleek and refined and the layout is very logical and organized. It also loads in a snap which is always appreciated when you're in my shoes.
    If I had to gripe I suppose I'd have to say that it does come off as just a bit too bright and maybe a tad girly? I don't mean to be harsh on that front but I do kind of prefer the more more industrial chrome and shiny back look with a bunch of gradients and all. Not unlike you're sig. But I don't blame you for trying something new and it still looks very sharp.

    Hehe, what can I say I like girly...no wait, scrap that last part.

    I just wanted to go for the blue gloss thing, black can look good, but I wanted something a big more light and 'fresh'.

    I may make a style switcher for users, but we'll see :)

    I was just wondering if you could make your Header something like

    http://img112.imageshack.us/img112/9140/layout02ud8.jpg

    I have just added a light shade but you might come up with something nice by adding different colour....Thats the place which I was saying is lookin empty to me.

    I like the purple/sunset like part, that's pretty cool.
