    Hi,

    I like it at first look, your design is simple and minimalistic, but however you might want to add some other features to give it a much more web 2.0 look! Let me give you some ideas:

    1. Maine Image, put there an slider! Check this link for inspiration and resources http://www.hongkiat.com/blog/jquery-image-galleries-sliders-best-of/
    2. Logo is really big there! And the Slogan is not in the right place! So you should make the logo smaller a little bit and put the Slogan under it!
    3. Interesting Nav Menu, in the example link there is a slider like this with the menus as well, you might try this is really cool!
    4. The footer is cool I might try to add some texture, like furniture white texture!

    So your designs are simple but maybe to simple, you want to impress your visitors and further clients! So use some nice design techniques and resources in order to do that, impress your clients and visitors! Good luck with all that my friend!

      Hi Liviu,

      Thanks for the feedback. I actually had a slider for the slideshow that I removed for minimalistic purposes. After what you are saying I will put it back in there. The slogan is on the right because I don't know what to put in it's place and I don't want the header to e lopsided. If you have any suggestions that would be much appreciated. Thanks for your time.

      @Liviu: Please dont ever say "make this look more web 2.0" again. I hope I don't have to explain why...

      I agree with Liviu. I do think having the main navigation be the slider control for the content to slide. Something kind of like this http://www.metalabdesign.com/ or this http://jqueryfordesigners.com/coda-slider-effect/ just move your tabs to where you want them and change the direction of the slide to scroll horizontally instead of vertically if you would like.
