Project 1 Final Juice...

The gradient on your design is awesome. I enjoy how the black background fades in to the gradient. Great job!

Juicy indeed.

This is a nice blend of both your designs. The dialing back of the Photoshop effects really helps those effects that remain stand out. The layout is clean and easy to read. Either picture works fine (what's a perfectly nice sailor doing with a suppressed M4?), though I think the second fits the site a little better. Use the first one on the "non-paying clients" policy page! On the second photo, I'd Photoshop in a darker background as the white is a little stark against your design. I also like the background gradient and lakebed landscape photo. Your colors are working together rather well also.

You do have to watch your margins though. The bottom of your bodycopy is perilously close to the bottom of it's box and needs a little more room to breathe. I'd also use a medium typeface for your bodycopy rather than a bold. Finally, make sure the link text in your buttons is all the same size. "Home" is noticeably larger on this design.

Good work. The site's looking pretty nice.

very nice home page, I like your logo, colors and imagery. awesome!!!

I really like the colors you used they go really well together and the image you used is really nice as well. My only suggestion would be to maybe give the content boxes a little more space in between them, just separate them a little bit more for some breathing room.

I like that you chose to put both designs into one. It flows well. I think the logo on the header in front of the image is nice but I lose a little legibility where the sunset is. Over all though, I like it!

I'm liking your website a lot! The only thing I would adjust is your body copy. It's bugging me somewhat because it is so close to the bounding box around it. I would try adding some padding so it doesn't look so constricting, but other than that it looks pretty good!

Ah very nice. I feel the changes you made from the preliminary work are huge improvements. The borders you had previously incorporated in this design had great texture but seemed to distracting. I think this looks much more clean and well organized. One thing I think might look bettet is to justify the type of your body copy instead of centering it. Nice work overall!

I really like your design, but it seems small compared to the gradient you have as a page. Make it bigger?

I very liek the picture in the backround and how you incorporated its colors into your page design!! Looks great! Good job on your corrections, very nice!!!
