    Too much white space

    I really like the airy feeling of this and love your logo. But I think there is too much spacing around the "Welcome to..." text that pushes the start of your content too far down on the page. The pearl/flower logo is nice, but I'd like to see a few a blue(?) shades in there to break up the monotone feel of it (but only on the flower).

    I'm hooked on 1px lines and think that would make it crisper if you did one between the grey/white areas (header/footer) instead of the thicker line you have.

      Thank you Matt! I love 1px lines as well and admire it wherever I see it smartly applied. I will be re-working the layout and text on the home page. As for the flower colors I have quite a few versions with different shades. I was not really happy with it but maybe will post it here and see how people react.
