Hi there Cal,
I love the layout of your site.
For some reason the left edge differs below the graphic, it's jaggy, where next to the graphic it's a little blurry.
Mouse-over is very cool!!!
I personally like the green, might like it better if it wasn't so yellowish -- it's good for a realty site, looks like grass. did you know that yellow houses sell more then houses of any other color? (dumb color trivia here .)
Last thing, the picture on top is really distorted, I'm not sure if that was intentional or even done by you, the sign is not legible. You may be able to touch that up in photoshop or similar program.

take care,

----------

A few more comments on the Real Estate site...
- the text would look better left aligned.
- the site has a lot of potential, but I really do no like the green texture.

Feel free to review other people sites

Dear Group,

Thankyou so much for your feedback, your comments are appreciated

My first draft of the site's navigation system and overall look was actually in blue...but the "colors" of the firm are black, green and yellow- so I was asked to change the look- go figure.

Carolyn, thanks for your comments regarding the image on the front page... I am also unhappy with that image and will probably replace it with a graphic of a home. My obstacle with that particular image is that I needed to resample down to 470 pixel width by 77, so it pretty much distorted any photographs I took of the building.

I haven't had time yet, but I was considering taking two images, then seaming them together, So I could get the necessary dimensions without losing image quality.

Thanks for pointing out the blurry left seam of the image...thats just a result of the blending tool in photoshop,too much compression and laziness on my part...will fix that one now.

Thanks again for your time

Since your feedback was so good, perhaps you guys can direct your keen eye towards this pther project and relay any comments you have. It's a newspaper site at the following url:

Hi Cal,
I like the mouseover effect but I'm affraid I'm not keen on the greenish texture the site uses. I would opt for something plain, maybe blue?

Here is a site which you might want to inspire yourself from;
