    With some cool graphics! :)
    About me: I'm a web developer and I love to play around with wordpress. I also do bit of a SEO for small size businesses. I figured my own website was long overdue for redesign and I spent some time picking out a template and adding some custom menus and such.

    I am simply posting here to ask for feedback ...and suggestions.. maybe I'll offer some work to the best person who can suggest me how to make my website look more graphic reach as that one area is not my forte.

    Old Website

    New Website

    No Private Messages Please as I won't respond to those, Please post up in forum with your ideas and suggestions.

    Few areas that I acknowledge needs to be reworked are:
    1. I know logo is used from old website so it doesn't sit well on the grey background .. it doesn't blend it.. I have the original file if someone can help me adjust that , it'll be great.
    2. Rotating images in wordpress theme are not reflecting my business model, if someone can help me find some images.. am willing to pay small fee for that.
    3. Any of the pages don't have images ... I'm willing to pay if you can help me find images that goes with wordings on the site.
    4. Portfolio/Clients page: only has links of the clients with business name and no snapshot of their work. this can be captured through snap gallery or something.. someone is willing to do that, I'll be happy to pay for their time.

    Bring on the constructive criticism.

    Just having some fun with you here but you have no ethos and no clue either because I was quite obviously talking to the OP not you lol...

    And believe me, you gain nothing from being on DP for more than 8 minutes other than a healthy distaste for idiots.

    Yep sure thing but I am in the middle of doing 6 things at once. I will chime back in shortly or shoot you a PM. I just happened by DP and saw this on the front page.

    not to worry,
