i have a new design here
http://epr-uk.com/redesign/home.html
which i am trying to make look more professional looking, and was wondering what people would consider changing/adding/removing to make this happen. i do want to make the navigation list more exciting, but struggling for ideas at the moment.
thanks

Just my 2 cents.

I would do something with the header, I thought EPR was a lawncare service at first (looks like grass). Also its like a big block all by itself while the rest of the site is very open and free flowing. Just looks strangely out of place.

July 2, 2008 at 7:19 pm #48323chazzwickMemberwow, thanks for all your comments. i agree, the website really didnt look right did it. ive tried to take your advice and heres what ive come up with:
http://www.epr-uk.com/redesign2/home.htmlthe only problem is with the footer, im trying to get it to stretch all the way along. ill figure it out eventually.

780px may be a little narrow now a days but the design looks way better.

Much better than the original.
Make your navigation a bit more noticeable though. At first I didnt even realize that they were links until I hovered over them.July 3, 2008 at 9:27 pm #48347nyshalynnMemberAdd the color brown hopefully to the links area or it’s highlighter.
finally ad some css opacity tricks to the text or surrounding photos :geek: -
