    You are on the right track though. The next step would be making all the menu options one line, no double line options. Then slim it down even further, and have the logo clip over the edge of the picture below it, then Id slim down that photo below it a tiny bit.

    That would look pretty excellent.

    Add some more neutral backgrounds and etc so the site isnt as polarizing color wise and you would be set.
    I'll be leaving the color scheme at the boss's request, but I did shuffle some things around on the homepage and slim the menu bar/photo some. I'm not too sure how to single-line all the options without going with a really small font, so I'll leave that bit for now as well. I figured leaving the logo in the bar (as opposed to clipping below it) would look a little cleaner, no?

      I tried something else to "liven up" the look of the site and would like some input: I added some photos to the backgrounds of the home, services, and drivers pages. I can't tell if they cause a bit of visual overload, though. I was thinking maybe something with a parallax effect to reduce the number of photos on "taller" pages, but I haven't gotten it to work right yet. Thanks!

            Thanks! I've updated a few more things, added some more background images. I'd love to know if it helps or hurts!

            Heh, I know. The thing is absolutely gorgeous AND a beast. And the location of the shifter matches my arm perfectly....:devil:
