Hi Julio,
I like the colors of the grey and green against the white.
I just feel there is way too much going on on this page making it confusing. Simplifying this page will welcome your customers rather than confuse them and using up their valuable time trying to figure out what is what.
I would maybe take the time out a bit to read about a grid system. I see you have one good left alignment for everything, yet, there needs to be at least a couple more distinct alignment points throughout this page. ( it will open this up a bit and help this page feel like it all belongs together, rather than each section feeling like it is a unique area of it's own, thus confusing). For example you have one big section in green, then 3 sections, then three mini sections, then 5 sections on the following line, and then 7 sections (by subscribe) and then 6 miscellaneously aligned sections. All these sections should align comfortably to each other.
You have four lines across full of links. I would treat all links with the same typeface, color so, it does not confuse newcomers.
I would treat all headings and subheadings in the same manner as each other. ( In color, size and typeface.)
Last little bit that you may consider looking at and that is "Get A Free Samples" I would take out the "A" as samples is plural.
Under "Services" try and have all your paragraphs the same size.
Look out not to leave a single word at the end of any paragraph description.
Other than those things, I like the colors that you have chose for this project. I like how you have treated the "order now" and "subscribe" buttons. I like the arrow navigation for the pics in the green box.

Also the lining is not right because its a demo once i get to the final design everything will be align.

These are just suggestions about what I have learned in class about design. As always they say nothing is wrote in stone on a must of how to do things, only suggestions. It was in the "WOW" web design book that I read about keeping the links and such in the same color and font to make your design more user friendly. It was through web 2.0 design styles that expressed the need and usefulness of only two to three max main alignments(sections). It's just a general "rule" on alignments to keep your page so it feels like it belongs together. Just because a site is popular it doesn't mean they have applied sound design principles (which usually have reason behind them.)
I'm glad the client liked it. I was just suggesting.

lol yea i know but i dont play by the rules im an outlaw.
Just remember a book doesn't make you a great designer its what you do as a designer that will show how good you are.
when i was in school i really didn't think designing was for me but 9years later its what i do for a living.

wow come on now a 1 for design really i think you need to look again.
Well lets start from the begin the images on here are just place holder into the client give me the images so it not that the page has a lot going is the like images that make it look busy.
Also its a print company there need to be alot of info on the home page take a look at
Uprinting.com vistaprint.com printplace.com 123print.com
and alot more look around the internet you will see.
Also when i design i like adding alittle style to the page not use the same colors, fonts , sizes all over the page because thats boring. its a print place a lot of them have 384336220 things around I made it where you can keep all that with style.
thank you for the feedback
ps the client loved it :)
