LinkBack URL
About LinkBacksIt's just a mockup right now. I want to really finalize the design before I start getting into the coding. Any suggestions or comments would be great!
My intention is to make this into a theme to sell on themeforest. This mockup is for a sort of landing page, and I'll be creating a sort of blog mockup too, which I'll convert into a wordpress theme to go with this. Right now I'm really only looking for design critiques.

when i loaded the site i really really didnt like the drop down menu... Maybe change the color or make it transparent and give it a drop shadow? It looks quite flat.
Other than that the site design and layout is simple but eye catching. Good work man!

-I think I have seen that design somewhere before. Not really sure though, will have to get back to you...
I have gotten into the habit of not judging other designers/developers work, but this is my Microsoft Meandering time so I'm MEANDERING...

There are a lot of themes and templates on Themeforest that have the same basic layout - topnav with dropdown menu, below that a jQuery slider of some sort, underneath that a couple of text areas with excerpts and leading to pages with the complete content, and finall just above the footer three or sometimes four boxes listing services and/or a contact form or link.

If it's your theme, it's okay. The colorful parts look nice, but the flat grey just kills it. You need...well, more color. Anything other than that dull grey.
If I've helped you out in any way, please pay it forward. My wife and I are walking for Autism Speaks. Please donate, and thanks.
