Firstly, this is an excellent design concept. The illustration s brilliant and very original!
My biggest gripe is that it looks more like a poster/flyer than a website. Reason being the lack of an apparent form of site navigation (i understand the main call-to-action is to submit and/or signup) and a strong footer to complement.
What I'd really love to do is not layout so many screenshots at a go. Perhaps some form of carousel would keep it a little cleaner, focused and more "interactive" (allowing the user to cycle through the various screens).
To take the concept one step further and keeping with the fun and simple branding that you've set out to achieve, you could introduce something playful as indicators for the "Before" and "After" instead of the diagonal ribbon on the top right. Perhaps a little "Duh!" vs "Wow!" kind of smilie.
More details in the notes.

Header
Push the main tagline down below the header to cater for a possible navigation, and to clearly define the header of the website.

Call to Action Panel
I'd push this down below the bullet points as a horizontal row

Smaller Graphic
Could make the graphic a little smaller so that it lines up with the left set of bullet points. Your main tagline would site above this, likely horizontally and center aligned.

Divider
Create some sort of clear definition between the main banner graphic, and the portfolio section. Currently, this part looks like a simple H2 following some intro content.

Client Name
The heading for the client name is a little strange as it doesn't cut across both screenshots. Consider extending it all the way to the right, or lose the background color and have a simple border-bottom.

More Footer
I hope that's not the end of the footer. The top area seems to have so much effort put into it, but the footer seems like a disappointing afterthought. Even if you intend not to have a top navigation, do keep a good footer with the necessary legal info and links, about and contact information. The footer should be light text on a dark background (not unlike the CF site) for a clear definition as well.
Mark, awesome details. We are adding a new footer this week. I'll keep everyone posted.
