Here is my new design:
http://www.<removed>.com/beta.php

Let me know which one you think is more suitable.

Beta page looks a bit more professional to me personally.

The "unbeta" page is more attractive with those shapes but they feel so 2000 aka. a bit outdated/not fashionable.

Well, the ball is back to ya now. :)

I like the newer design. Menu graphics ought to have ALT tags. Might look better if the content was centred. IE6 gives the following errors if I attempt to use the menu's:-

line 39
char 1
Object Expected

line 48
char 1
Object Expected

Good luck with it.

The new one's template looks like a template from some other sites. But it may be just me.

Both aren't bad but the new one is certainly better.

Which one did you think looks like a template? They are both original designs that I made, so I'd be curious to see some evidence for your claim.

P.S. I took the picture in the header myself, so surely that can't be what you find offensive.

Maybe it's just similar. I am not trying to offend you, if it does, I am sorry.

No, no, I'm just surprised that my site would resemble another site. If you every find the/a site that you think looks similar to mine, please let me know.

P.S. You don't suppose you recognize it from when I posted a similar design a while ago do you?

Oh, I just felt that your template looks like the quality templates in the template sites, it's similar.

The banner logo and the navigation looks very professional. From the looks of it, it seems that it would fit on the smallest of screen resolutions without a problem. Excellent job.
