1. The design is not as elegant as I think it could be. I don't think the left nav has to be buttons -- text would be more elegant for the links. The buttons are too big and too bright.
2. The logo needs some work; I think it's hard to read especially with the drop shadow.
3. Try a different fade for the flash slide show. Something more simple would be more appropriate.
Just my opinions -- hope they are helpful. I think the site needs to look clean and professioanl to achieve the elegance your client wants. Good luck!

The colors (black, grey, cream) you have chosen are nice but I don't think it's quite there yet:
1. The design is not as elegant as I think it could be. I don't think the left nav has to be buttons -- text would be more elegant for the links. The buttons are too big and too bright.
2. The logo needs some work; I think it's hard to read especially with the drop shadow.

Thank you so much, I really appreciate your opinions and I'm already working on the improvement of this site. I'll have in mind all what you've said. When you have some free time i'll apreciate your visit to the site, and all your comments are welcomed. Thanks.

Well, im learning to use Dreamweaver and a Chef asked me to create for her a web site that looks elegant. I ve focused so much in understend how dreamweaver works that I don't know if the design I made for the site is OK.

Particularly, I think it's soon to design websites with high width. A lot of people has 1024 or 800 configuration yet.
I'll remove the left column and I'll place a horizontal menu just under those pictures.
I don't know if the content depends on you but it has so many spelling mistakes.
You've used divs with absolute position and that's no very recommeded. For example, in contacto.html that last gallery si so down and it generates a big vertical scrolling. Maybe it looks nice in your screen, but it doesn't work with another resolutions. I advise you to learn about "float" attribute for divs.
Anyway, if you're learning web designing you're doing a great work!

Look the size and distribution of all elemnets, it is simple, elegant and provocative, do not over size images if you dont have a good resolution file, it is better small but sharp, than big and foggy.

I'm not sure if you've designed that site for a resolution higher than 1024x768 but with that resolution horizontal scroll appears.

I didn't knew i had to set a resolution when working on a site so I think i've solved that problem (please tell me if not).
Im working on the design of the menu, and i think ill put it under the pictures as you said.
You were right about the spelling mistakes, so ill change it as soon as I submit this.
Maybe I should but i don't know what a "div with absolute position" is. Anyway i'll search it in google or something.
I have to learn about that float attribute you talked about, so I think I have a lot of work to do. Thank you for your comments, they really helped me.
And sorry if i don't respect english grammar, I'm still learning it.

By the way, do you think the slideshow is too informal because its made on Slide?
Should I learn to use flash and do it by my self?
Honestly I'd say yes to this ... it's not that you have to learn flash by yourself either ... I guess there's plenty of online flash-recourses. On the other hand: stuff like this you will easily leanr by using Flash. If you got the program, I'd say go for it Else try online recourses, it's really not worth buying Flash, if you're only going to use it this time .. or only for slideshows.
Good luck!

The right part is well done except the figures and text are too stuck the one onto each other, they need to breathe a bit. try making more white space where needed.
Good choose of pictures.
