That's a nice design, but 2 things, I noticed from your site that the violin used in the banner is already being used in another banner created for someone else, I'm not sure where that falls under ethics. The second thing, While I see you are keeping to the colors in the design of my site, I think those colors are too dark and dull for banner advertising as it has been my experience that brighter colors attract more attention. I like the bright colors and design of the first banner and the last 2 banners on the first page of the site in your sig. Thanks
