Still gotta do some finishing touches and make a navigation but tell me what you think so far http://www.jimmycarr.net/
How long did it take to design? The layout of content and elements are alright, now you need to make it less plain/flat
8everything, I made it flat and simple purposely. I usually do the opposite with sites but with Jimmy wanted to go for a proffesional, simple, light look. Examples of two of my more colourful sites: Http://www.derren-brown.net Http://www.gervaisworld.com
probably took about 2 hours, because I was toying around for a long time with how I wanted it but once I knew I got on with it.
