I like the idea of keeping your site simple and clean. However, I think it's too much so. The site looks incomplete - needs a little more content and a more refined graphic interface. Look around at other web design companies and find elements you like about their sites and personalize them into your own. Also, as a company that offers graphic design and logo design particularly, your own logo should really stand out from the competition. Your current logo is very generic looking. You might consider a graphic element that is more symbolic of either the name or the services you offer. Someone should have a good idea of what your business does just by looking at the logo.

Thx for the comments.. The logo isnt exactly a logo logo.. I have had trouble coming up with one so its just a graphic to take up space I guess.
I'm not exactly sure by what you mean "a refined graphic interface" ? Could you explain this to me, thanks.

The logo was a sticking point, in so far as the top left edge of the globe that isn't good. Apart from that I like the basic concept.

Hmm, could you rephrase please? Did you mean you don't like the pixelated part of the globe?

Personally no, but that is just a personal thing I guess. I am viewing in 1600x1200 and it just looks like a mistake, not wishing to offend. If it were larger it may be clearer as to why it is there.

The new header graphic is better - more interesting visually. The sidebars still seem very static and plain. The big white space at the bottom of the page makes it seem very empty. Also, if you're going to use that logo, you need to fix the kerning a bit - it's close but needs a little work. Also, I'm not crazy about drop shadow effects for logos in general.

Thanks, I really like this header a lot better..
I'm not sure if I can change the sidebars.. I don't normally use frames like this - I was hoping it would make it look decent to most resolutions...and at 1024x867 or 800x600 there isn't a lot of empty space on the bottom.... *shrugs* I don't know what to put there anyway - I plan on adding some Google Ads though.
With the logo - I like it better without the drop shadow now - makes it cleaner? ...

SSFelt - no worries, I'm not offended, this is why I posted, I wanted designers' opinions about my site. My boyfriend didn't like the pixeled part either, lol....

Thanks everyone for posting - I appreciate it!
