Not sure about the type in the left column (you must be...) Seems to be floating. It would need to be re-balanced. There are strange spaces around it.
Not sure either about the big grey box around the logos on the right side. Those strokes aren't really helping on showing logos in their best possible way.

First of all, with it being a site that says it's services include web design, the fact that it doesn't even pass W3C validations, should make me not even bother with the rest of the issues the site has, but i'm in a mood to point out the site's major shortcomings, to give the new kids on the block on this site some things to consider when designing a website.
what I find is the most funny is how they got one of those 1990's graphical counters on their intro page. Like the ones that say "hey, my site must be cool if it's got XXXXX number of hits) which by the way is close to pointless for real statistical data for site visits.
they also are not up to times on screen size and resolution as their main banner was not designed large enough in width to cover the width of my screen size so the banner starts over at one point (see screenshot) any professional would have taken measures to make sure the banner doesn't start over, no matter what screen size someone has (well up to the maximum width screen size that's possible currently)
let's see, what else....oh right, FRAMES! seriously? people still use HTML frames?
and yes, he disabled the right click functionality for his pages, LOL. anyone with half a brain knows that you can use browsers to look at the page source. Not that anyone would want to 'take' anything from the site anyway.
I would cut them a break, as most of these gimics were 'popular' atleast 5 years ago, if not more, but they have 2008 included in their copyright text. if they're going to bother updating it, they could atleast get their site's design up to speed with today's standards.
All in all it's like it's like one of those cars that looks fancy and exciting on the outside, but falls to pieces once you get inside.
I'm sorry they get a banner link to their site on the front page of DC. I sure hope they paid enough for it!

I seriously think it is disrespectful to trash someone's work like you did in this forum. The truth of the matter is that everyones art is their own. If you dont like it, constructively criticize or leave it alone. Don't bash.
I find it mildly sad that i have to make a comment relating to a DTM's lack of respect.
anyways, on a lighter note, i really like the website. I think the music is a little over the top, but i like that it actually has sound. most design websites are mildly quiet.
i love the opening page, i think its funk, and while it contains alot of gradients, i believe that it works for its purpose.

Thanks,

wow, it looks like the 'santa clause' of "eye candy" threw up all over that site
it looks like the designer went overboard with the gradients transparencies and colors over top of most likely stock photos he grabbed from a stock photo site. (though if he did use photos he himself took, i apologize for my comment)
