It's a very good looking site, just a couple ideas for you...
I think the wave on the twitter bar is a little distracting. Maybe give them the option to turn that off?
The icon for "client testimonials" is a little awkward. It seems to be asking you to click on the "read more" for fast turn around time.
In the contact form, maybe bump the size of the message box up so it lines up with the first input field on the left.
Since this is being marketed as a portfolio/design site, there doesn't seem to be enough emphasis on photographs or space for showing off the work.
Maybe just change who this is marketed to? This is content heavy -- maybe an IT company (minus the waves) or something??
FYI, I buy designs from theme forest. How about a theme catering to Parent Teacher Associations?? I know a few schools who would buy it!!!
The live version of this on ThemeForest looks slightly different in the header menu; I like that slight change better. Vertically the design has good flow and definitely puts the "Projects" in the spotlight. I'm not sure what sort of portfolio this would be used for, as the single display of a project would be a difficult interface for showcasing a large portfolio.
Although I'm not in love with the wave/tooth pattern on the twitter feed, I think it would look better if the pattern were on the top and bottom and the black header continued for a short space below the twitter feed. As it looks right now, it seems like an abrupt change and it's somewhat distracting.
I agree with the wave/tooth pattern. It's taking away from the site design. If you are looking for a way to break up the straight line divider, try free form shape with far less peaks and troughs.
Very clean design, its a little hard on the eyes, but if you look at anything I do, you can tell I'm not big on white. Everything is well organized and clearly stated, but lets talk about this. What is exactly stated, Lorem Ipsum? It would be nice to see actual content posted, even if it isn't firm content. Your front page doesn't say enough about you, your services and your previous work. Its important that people get an immediate taste of who you are and what you can do or else you may get you're tab closed quicker than you'd like. Other than that, I love the way its laid out, It's got class, subtle effects and tells everyone your serious about your work. P.S. IMO you never offer design package. I screams that your not busy with enough business and that's the last thing you want people to think. Bread and butter my friend, good work.
While clean and legible, it needs a bit more of a "designy" feel. Not quite enough balance btw function and aesthetics.
Suggest dropping the sawtooth (looks like grandma's window shades!) and reducing the thickness of the box rule surrounding the featured item. Make corners square finish, not rounded.
Put a different pic in the feature window – perhaps with people in it. Increase height of window.
Lighten the background a little – more slate grey than charcoal.
The Demo Website and Next Project buttons are too big and clunky.
Drop the Keep In Touch and Fast Turnaround paragraphs completely – too much text on the Home page.
The other pages seem okay to me, in the main.
Hope this helps.
I really like what you have here and am unsure why its not selling. The only thing I can think is that it's not bold enough. I think the header could be more styled and detailed. Add some strokes and shadows to your images. I would also try and pull the blue color more throughout the design. In the end this is a great design and I'm not fully sure why it's not selling. I hope some the ideas I've shared will help.
Nice design and color combination
Okay thanks for the feedback!
And thank you for the Suggestion. :) I may consider that for my next design!
