    Hmmm, consider another color?

    First, let me say I really like your logo, the site layout, and the color. Blue is great, and globally, is considered the most inoffensive color. But let me toss this idea out there ... blue is a very cool color, not warm. Granted, the hands do add a more personal touch, and I realize you likely were tying in your logo color with the blue background. Have you considered warmer colors though? Maybe experiment with greens or golds. The other thing -- and I think someone else pointed out -- is a call to action. The hands do add that personal touch, but I think it would be better to relate them to that intro text. Maybe the company has a copy writer who can tailor the text and header in such a fashion. Nice job Jorne.

      Thnx for the comment. I've tried different colors but i'd liked the same color the most. It looked good (so good idea!) but the blue looks most natural and clean. Wish both client and me prefer.

      I think the call to action part is realy interesting. The intro part is used like an intro (introducing) text and the bottom for more information. How can you improve that ?

      I realy like youre comment! thnx again :)

      Jorne: I'm not much a copy writer myself, but if the header were maybe a bit larger and said something like "When you need a hand" or "We're here to help" or "Let us give you a hand" ... I think you get the idea. The header states a need or service, and the intro text says why a client might needs help, then follows with how the company can help with that goal or service. Does that make sense?
