    I am working on getting my web design firm up and running locally and have come up with a layout. I am still working on it, but things are coming along. I think I might flash the logo and add a small graphic on the left near the content. Oh, and I am also working on getting it all WC3 validated (just whipped this up off the top of my head :p)

    Well let me know what you think!

    I see you only have your top part of the site done. What can I tell you so far , the layout is interesting and the color scheme is quite nice. I like the logo and the top menu , but your page is not W3C valid , from what I see.

    Sorry but the design is not that impressive, maybe have a look at high ranked competitors websites to see what they do.

    I like the design, I think you can keep it simple like this if you have some impressive designs in your portfolio to show off to interested customers.

    Yea i HATE over complicated web sites. They are cluttered, I prefer clean light designs... I have plenty of those over complicated designs that clients have requested to show off :)

    I like the clean design, except for the green maybe.

    Some things you should change or no one would you believe that you are running web dev company (sorry, just honest).
    * have some h2 for the headers "promotional..." and "Why should..". Replacing them with images is easy, look at the zen garden.
    * Use em and strong instead of i and b. There's a semantic difference you should obey.
    * a br at the start of a p? Use margins instead
    * same for the br in the #navlist
    * I guess you mistook keywords for title...
