New Website...Thoughts?

[speedhop]

I just finished putting together my new site. It is geared towards photo and advertising...hopefully I can impress someone out there.

Some feedback would be appreciated!

Thank you.

You need to re-export your logo into some format that doesn't butcher the edges and make jaggies all over.

Otherwise, good. I generally don't like flash sites, but yours is low-key enough to be good :)

I've been noticing that...3rd time saving as a transparent png and still this. hmmm

Thanks for looking!

You could try toning down the outer glow and shadow combination... are you exporting out of Photoshop or Illustrator?

[shmutzigE30]

looks great but runs a little slow. for me at least but i have an extremely fast connection sooo...... yea

nice lookin site though

I exported out of photoshop.

Edit: I toned down the outer glow, saved as bicubic smoother, and re-exported and still some text clipping.

And are you working at 2x or 3x production resolution?

[speedhop]

Bingo...well better at least.

I was working at poop level resolution.

Flash usually pisses me off but i think yours looks pretty good. But your logo just doesn't look right.

Why does the logo need a transparent bg?

simple and effective.

Because it's a pain in the ass to try and color match. Transparent png's are more versatile and effective.

Just what I was going for. Thanks.

props bro. I think the gray background should be a lighter shade for a better look. That's just my opinion though.

Apparently not :p

I really like the nature shots, btw.
