thanks for all the input so far.........

Yes there were roll over effects but i took them out. I am gonna be redoing that "hot bar" or whatever ya wanna call it.

And the graphics are fuzzy cause i compressed them as much as i could right now, i just wanted to see what they looked like on the site so far.

I think your graphics have some potential but I feel they definately need some work.

Firstly I think they are too big and take up a lot of screen real estate. Its all about your perception of space -I would try making them smaller and more subtle. Think minimalist!

The red glow around the text is too harsh and actually detracts from the title instead of enhancing it. The effect you achieved with the yellow lines is good but could be softer.

The buttons have a nice transparent look, but the black text on them lets them down. The metalic-like border looks fuzzy especially the circles.

Are there supposed to rollover effects?

Hope this helps.

I think the red drop shadow on the big yellow buttons make it look newbish (is that a word).

You'd problaby be better to slice the navigation buttons than imagemap them, couple of reasons, one of you wanted to add another link you just add another table cell, and using it sliced if one doesnt show up then its only one link they cant show instead of all. (but you should always use text links as well when using images as links)

I know you only asked for the graphics but i saw this in your soucre code I thought id point out to you:

</BODY>
<body background="bground.jpg">

so you have html,meta,meta,title,/title, /head,script,/script, /body,body, etc

I like the graphics, they seem a bit polished and new looking though.

Maybe rough them up a little bit?
