This looks really good! Congrats on the CSS layout

A few things I noticed:

• The graphic effects on the navigation buttons are a little too overdone. Try to simplify those a little bit. The photo is very striking but as it is now the nav buttons are competing with it. You want the photo to get the emphasis. Also make the buttons wider so the bar spans the whole width.
• Put a bigger margin around the main body content. That will make the design feel less cramped.
• I'm a little confused about the relationship between the top nav menu and the sidebar. Some of the links are the same but some are different.

Good job overall. I like the gradient in the background. I didn't notice it at first - a nice subtle effect

Looks good, You culd change the color of the picture on the right side of the support page to the color of the one on the pricing page, the pink doesn't go well with the rest of your site.

Nice, tableless and XHTML Strict!

Suggestions...

1. Site navigation works better with div id='' tags. Let the spiders know your site navigation better, than with generic class statements. It's more CSS, but the important divs need identifiers.

2. Footer may need to be more separated from the body with more padding. This way visitors can really see your last "punchline". Currently, it's too close to the body of the text, blending into it.

3. Experiement with "text-align:justify", to fill in the empty white-space on the right, as you have ample margins between the sidebars.

4. For accessibility (if it matters for you); navigation sidebars are best on the right-side. It makes navigation faster even for those without text-readers, especially with larger monitors/higher resolution -- that's a long mouse travel otherwise.

5. Tidy-HTML spotted that the pound sign wasn't escaped, use (remove the hyphens as the forum auto converts it otherwise)...

&-#-1-6-3-;' instead.

Nice, clean coded, and to the point website.

good colors... nice navigation... the only thing I would say is if your trying to grab clients from the site you want it to be as cool and cutting edge as you can handle... so update or redesign as much as you can.

I like this site, it sits well on the screen and becuase there is no flash content, its very easy on the eye. It may be worth having perhaps a couple of your designs on the front page? It wasnt clear at first where I could find examples of your work

Ok, I've changed the header nav to an ul instead of using divs for each button, I've removed the red VAT image from the left hand side and added some images of my work to the home page. Plus a few other bits and pieces here and there.

Please let me know what you think of the site now.

Thanks again for your critique.
