We just launched our new re-designed site, freshly yesterday. So if you Newstoday viewers can take a peek and give some (honest) feedback it would be much appreciated. We just want to make it the best it can be in showcasing our work. Thanks in advance and enjoy your weekend.

Nice, might want to up the contrast for the navigation.
- davey_g0
Thx fate, that's the kind of stuff I'm looking for! The lighter grays are a bitch across the board for monitors...

i can't read the text on my powerbook tft screen on 3" + distance
- stewart0
the blinking + sign in the worksection is annoying
- davey_g0
Yeah, taking the blinking off...my friends hate it! Thx.
- stewart0
+1 point!
- stewart0
oh, and don't forget to add a nice interactive self-designed citymap with your location in the contact section!
- davey_g0
what about the "+1 point" comment, what's up?
- stewart0
+1 point for removing the plus-sign?
- davey_g0
The flashing "+" sign is being removed, but it's going to be static...so you can rip thrugh the site quickly while keeping your mouse in one place...what do you think?
- stewart0
hm, maybe make a litte tiny + sign as mousepointer when you rollover the image?

Looks great! You guys have some great work in your portfolio. Can't see much else to improve other than the navigation contrast.
- davey_g0
Thx Milan, we appreciate your comments.

For a design firm I think you need a strong logo and identity. Everything on the site is smooth and slick but the pixeleated type in the header just doesnt do it for me. Its played out and generic. You need to build a solid brand thats recognizable. Other than that everything is cool.

nice, nice work too...i clicked thru it all...

I have to agree with 'Bouncinsoul', I think the site is excellent but the logo is weak. I would drop the pixel font.
- davey_g0
Maybe the pixel font is a bit dated...but I've had it for years and I'm trying to be consistent, you know?...So you know the old saying "if it ain't broke don't fix it?" Kind of what I'm going for...
But good points you do bring up and once again I appreciate hearing what you have to say. Keep it coming, we can take it.

That is nice and tight!
I miss the "01 02 03 04..." in the photos...
I agree on the "+" and the logotype comments.
But it is a nice site!!!
- davey_g0
I'm working on getting the 01, 02, 03, etc. in the existing sub-nav of the photos. I think it's a good point you brought up armed_rob. Just haven't gotten around to it and trying something a little more flexible in the photo section.
Keep dropping the comments, I'm rocking a mad buzz right now...and am online.
Hooray for the weekends!
