I like the layout its nice, all i can say is round the left and right tab.. it looks to square.
Also some of the thumbnails aren't showing up (wether they exist yet i don't know)

One last thing, keep checking you site validates, this should be important

Seems to be a lot of white space at the top left, maybe centering your logo would be a better option. The layout is using rounded corners yet your navigation is square and doesn't flow with the rest of the site.

Nice clean design, but for a company specializing in designing "stunning websites", I think I'd expect a little more stunning design on the home page. :wink: As grinch mentioned, there's a lot of white space. I like your logo, though!

Have you seen the css zen garden? They have some beautiful site design samples. You can check them out for some inspiration.

Note: You have a mistake in the text on the home page. "We are dedicated to give our customers" should be "We are dedicated to giving our customers".

Good luck with the site!

Nice looking site. Clean looking flows nice. Thumbnails on home page are missing. I would round each of your tabs and the right side conor. Other than that I looks pretty good.

i'm really feeling this design. Great choice of colors, and pass setup. Deffinately need to add more content to get a better feal. Not to found of the logo. Reminds me of just basic fonts front high school. I would say shrink it to one line keep the same two color scheme but make it smaller and maybe develop a logo. Check out my site we can link when you complete developing. KryptonicWave.com

none of the picutes are working i think you should check if their linked to where you uploaded em you probably have them still connecting to your documents you should definetly fix that very nice layout and everything

Yes the white space on the left is highly striking.


The thing about designing for free - it may be a way to build up a portfolio but the clients would have to agree to keep a link to your site - Desiged by link at their footer in return for you doing it for free.

Additionally, if free then would be very small websites so prospective customers could get a general feel for you abilities and confidence in you being able to deliver the standard required etc.

Good potential if you manage to attract the clients.
