I'd like to know how all of you professional GFX designers like the graphics on my website. It is a graphic production company I like to call StarBrite Productions. You can find the link in my sig. So, how do you like the appearence, GFX, and layout of it? Thanks a ton!

I like it, it's better than my layout on my site. 8/10

Hmm, it's okay.

It's a little blah... not text effects or images; just scanlines and a blue/red background. I think it was a nice idea, but it needs a little sprucing up.

Whenever I see Comic Sans used as a default on a website, I cringe. It's way too overused, and there are tons of other fonts that look much more professional and less-generic (in my opinion). It does look a lot like CP's font (Secret Agent), but I'd go with a different one if I were you.

Some tips would be...
-Add some images (try replacing the text-navigation with image-navigation)
-Change font
-Let us see more of the background (It looks nice, but we only see some of it. Then it's just...green).

I'll rate it 7/10 for now; you put a lot of effort into it and it shows! While most people will turn to ready-made Freewebs templates, you took it a step further and created your own design! Good for you.

Thanks guys. And Rod, as you probably can see, I use 110mb as a default. Unfortunately, it weirrdly won't allow me to use but a small variety of fonts. When I use HTML to code parts of it, well, it shows up as the little boxes meaning 'missing character'. Other than that, thanks for the tips. It means a lot...coming from you. Your website is nice as well. Thanks for being so generous in your comments.

It doesn't work on firefox :confused:
Sounds pretty neat though.

Yea, that's a bug I am currently trying to work out. It appears to work on every browser except FireFox. (hence the choose browser area). I hope to find a reasonable solution soon, however.

Have you found anyway to make the site work on Firefox? I want it for my site.
