So when you do new news, your gonna create a new image for each one (I doubt that, but if you are :/).

But either way if you do or don't, your going to need to limit ur messages unless you want that background tiled, which will look dumb. You can't really have content boxes with designs in them unless you blend them to a plain color so that when you stretch them and make them bigger they don't look dumb.

A little plain, but Ok I guess

very nice mate, i like it. the menu on the side is especialy nice mate, you did a brilliant peice of work doing those tab/menu options.

Not overly fussed on the atom logo your using in the top left corner of each content box, its not that crisp and not sure if it melds properly. A nice plasticy or glassy button (flat top not domed) would look better imho.

the spacing is a bit large for my tastes, but that may be the style your going for.

You have a problem with placing that graphics behind the text on the content boxes. you can't tile it and you cant strech it, so for each non-standard sized content box your going to have to do a custom one. thats going to increase the download size. i would suggst changing it for one you can tile or fade it to a solid colour so you dont have to have large downloads.

overall mate a very nice job.

i dont get it. the link you showed us and the the site u gave have 2 different layouts on them.. i like the actual site one alot better.

i think you will find that robz has provided a link to show the image for the proposed layout for the existing site that he named. That is why there would be a difference.

its kinda plain and doesn't connect at all...

It's too simple, and if my memory serves me right, those Flash 'tabs' are bought/created by websites that offer such services.

There is no base color of the layout - nothing that holds it up together; everything seem to have been placed in an unorderly fashion.


Def. not a good site for selling/marketing.

It's better than I could do, but isn't the news box going to be a LOT of work? If you keep updating... but the layout isn't bad ^^
