    Ok here is wordpress site that has been cut and edited like crazy. The site is not fully done but I would like to get your ideas on the site. Most people like it but my Bro hates it (maybe cause im better) ; )

    original site:
    old site

    new site: (give me your thoughts)
    New Site

    FYI still need to tweak some code for IE6

    It is a simple and verry good design, keep on.. but why everywhere ive got "This is a 404 page.". I know that soon you will fix it, have a nice work on it :)

    The new site is much better. Although it could use a nice rollover on the links :)

    Thanks guys, Yeah the 404, I havent linked up all the pages and have quite a few hidden so they dont get index, the site will be moving over under the other domain shortly once my Copy gets finsihed...

    So any Ideas are welcome,

    twistedspikes - any ideas on that roleover?

    A background image (a simple gradient would work well) on the menu at the top (Home, products, etc), It wouldn't be hard to implement and would make the site feel more interactive.

    You could also put something on the menu links at the side, even just a background colour change (to a grey colour probably) when you hover over them, something like this site that I posted about in another thread here just now, thats the kind of thing I mean for this.

    I really dislike the old site - the new site is a much better alternative.

    Nice, clean, easy to read. I like designs with an easy to find search box too so that's a plus.
