    Hi Mohammed

    This is a nice design, and I like certain parts, there is no doubt that you can design.

    Things that need attention:

    • Logo - what does it say? Make it legible, the font that you have chosen for this doesn't work to well, and to be honest I still can't pronounce the name. "Alitilate" ? is that Like titilate with ali stuck on the front?
    • Main Nav - ok so for me and general SEO it's best to have the main nav at the top of the page, especially as you have at the moment a massive illegible logo, also why are there 2 dots after contact?
    • Simple layout of a website is missing - ok so I know designers like to be different, but the thing is, there is a method to just about all designers and developers' website stick to certain rules. These are 1. header (includes logo and sometimes nav) 2. main nav (if not in header). 3. portfolio piece or show off area. 4. content 5. footer.

    Although I like the colors it's missing a few vital elements, this is my opinion, you can take it or leave it, however I think it would look a lot cooler and better if it was laid out a bit better, and you rethink your logo.

    Good Luck! List item
