I didn't see your old design so I can only comment on what I see now.

The overall look is pleasing and the layout is uncluttered. It looks professional.

On the video pages (where the video & html code are displayed) the title above the HTML code box reads [video title] by HTML Code - shouldn't this be [video title] by [artist name] HTML Code.

What are the benefits of registering? This should be made clear.

When listing videos you use the term 'Creator' instead of Artist.

I notice that you have a lot of artists listed under T that begin with 'The' you should probably list these without 'The' as well as most users will probably omit it when searching.

Are you interested in some SEO suggestions?
I notice you have no keyword or description Meta tags. Try to add more text to your pages so that they're not just pages full of links - eg artist profiles, a history of music videos etc. SEO could be your biggest challenge especially if most of the pages are dynamically generated.

Do you plan on running Adwords or other advertising on the site?

This is a new feature just added.
When you register you can save your favorite videos for future use. We are working on more features like allowing users to select there videos to play randomly etc...

This is being changed over. No idea why creator was chosen. Confused

Good idea and point.

Yes, advertising is one the way. Not alot but some. I am also working selling products like mugs, mouse pads, t-shirts etc.... with the logo.

thanks again for your post. Your comments are very helpful. Cheers!

The design is very simple and professional, I think you should add a few pages like a contact us and about us page which describes the benefits of registering. I would also try to align the Welcome to search music video box with the user login box. Other then that great site.

Aside from a different logo and no google adsense, it looks just like all the other mv sites that mvscript.com sells.
