I would try and work on generally toning down everything – it’s a little extreme for anyone spending a significant amount of time looking at the site. Bright colors doesn’t necessarily mean you need to burn out anyone’s retinas

I’d say take the saturation WAY down on that magenta (pink) background, and maybe bring the overall background down too. Then I’d take the drop shadows down to be much more subtle. It’s easy to go nuts with the drop shadows, but less is more for these kinds of things.

For the forms, being a beginner, I would check into Wufoo or something similar. Personally I use Machform, but to each his own.

Now, certainly take this with a grain of salt, but taking your existing elements, you can give them more depth and make them much easier on the eye with some tweaking:

Thanks you very much for the suggestions . I will tone down the color.
Should i change pink color in all the pages or just the index page.

thanks

It kind of depends on what’s going to go on these pages. Maybe maintain the pink as a border??
