    Hey that might be helpfull huh... :lol:

    The left menu is way to wide. Maybe lessening the amount of curve might help.

    I really like the way that second one looks. That is starting to look really nice IMO.



    Are you still going to put your latest logo at the top somewhere?

    the above shots were exported right from Photoshop

    Here is a Screenshot after I sliced and edited the HTML, the Design as been formatted for Relativ Widths (meaning it fits perfectly inside the Window from 750px wide and up) and added in text

    any thoughts for imporvement, or should I scrap this whole design????

    I was a little worried about the logo with the color of blue you have on it now. But it looks like you changed the tint a bit and it fits pretty well IMO.

    Have you tried using the font that you use on the current for the top "buttons" where you have the home, design, hosting... etc? I'm curious how that would look up there. (BTW what font is it?)

    I like the layout you use now for the site but I am really liking this new one you are making.

    honestly I dont remeber what font I used, I have over 1000 fonts installed on my Computer, I will have to see if i can dig up the orgainl png file for that design


    What Changes do I need to make to make this one Better than the Exsisting one?

    I like this one because I think it will be Easier to Navagate, it puts the News as more of a focal point, and is more of a "orginal" design verus the more "square" "common" 2 colum layout I used on the existing site

    While this one is "2 colum" the curves break it up and make is more appealing IMO
