    Would love to get your feedback and thoughts on my concrete driveway site which is based in sydney

    Concrete Driveways Sydney

    In particular I'd like your thoughts on the slideshow and how it loads and runs.

    Thanks. Have a great day.

    Nice and clean site but I just thought that three box concrete driveway, Resurfacing , Stenciling graphics and font are not cool. put another nice graphic box it will be more nice.

    Nice colors, content is kinda stuffed.

    Especially when you look to the lower part of the website wit the "before and after" images and all the various content in between.

    I would also change the looks of the menu in the header. It could use a bit different colors to stand out from the header background and i would change that arrow which indicates existence of a sub-menu.

    I agree with xplaindesign about the font, especially the one on the images.

    That's just my opinion. Could you review mine? I made a thread with only one response... the link for the site is in my signature :)

    robaid: Your site looks great. Nice effort. I like the article on sea urchins.

    I get what you mean with the images with text and the font used. It could be better. I'll look into that. Thanks xplaindesign for pointing that out.

    The arrow indicates existence of a sub menu because there is a sub menu on two of those menu headings.

    Yeah, but I would use a down arrow image bellow the menu item if I wanted to emphasize some items have a sub-menu. The ones you used on the side (although pointing down) are more suitable for a vertical menu when they're pointing right (I had a similar one on my 6 year old design/personal website)

    Thanks for your praise :)
