Could I get some feedback on my recently re-designed site?
http://www.trudeauconsulting.com

I am mostly curious to see what people think of the look and feel. It uses alpha-transparencies but doesn't employ any browser fixes to make them viewable in older browsers.

I tried to use as much CSS as I could with no tables. Thanks!

I actually like the look and feel aside from some minor things. First of all your site is very unique, but your header lacks the unique design like the rest of your site. Keep it simple, but there is not center focus on your home page, its almost like your eyes don't know where to look. Anyways good luck.

I like the site. The concept is unique. It looks professional though you really need to improve the design of you header. Try to add a logo to make your header looks more appealing.

I personally thought it looked a little plain. Clean, but plain. I personally like more graphics then less.

I like the overall look of the site. Although I agree about the logo. You should be more creative about it. The menu is very nice- just the blue link on mouse over is a bit annoying.

Like they have pointed out, I didn't know where to look first. Try making the header text a bit bigger and put your list of services or keywords below the header. Also try to use the thirds rule, meaning pretend there is a giant tic-tac-toe board on your screen. Where the lines intersect you should have points of interest.

My opinion... wouldn't think this is a web design firm's website.

Would be a nice layout for a lawyer or financial consultant, with the exception of the vector in the top right. That being said, I agree with the others, I'm not pulled to any specific area of the site and the header needs more thought.

Nice job on the alpha transparency in the top-right, maybe do more of that?

Thanks everyone - I would have never thought to spruce up the header so I will focus on that.

hello i'm viewing your site on FF2.x.x,
echoing others, the design looks a bit too plain, you also should add a logo or make the heading bigger, also maybe add style to your navigation links, like, change the txt color on mouse hover
