Come on Guys wheres the comments? Do you think a watermark behind the text will add anything to my site?

[splufdaddy]

I like it. A watermark could work, but it would have to be very subtle. Also, when you mouse over portfolio, the tabs that pop up don't disappear when you mouseout. You have to mouse over a new button. Minor detail.

Hummm they should disappear i will check my scripting 2nite!

Would it be possible for you to make the site stretch 100% vertically ? the layout appears to end some what abruptly with a 3-4cm gap of empty space at the bottom.

Your slogan/copyright is akward to read, you want things to be clear and understandable at a glance; consider using a more subdued font without the washed out shadows. It's also a good idea to include the copyright symbol in there, so try to find a font that would include it.

On your contact page, you say 'you can reach us either by email...' as an optional method of contact, but where do you find it ?

When you increase the font size in IE, black bars begin to appear in the layout on your 'home' page; (see attached image)

Also is the first paragraph supposed to be in a smaller font size as to the rest ? - You might need to specify a certain size for text, because its the only page that can have the font size re-scaled. - this is probably causing that layout bug.

*EDIT* - Try and adjust the 'ACT' closer to the 'CONT' on your contact button, it looks like two seperate words.

A few of the things I picked up on...

your getting very warmer try lowering the menu size and see if you would like it more.

[bahnstormer]

not sure i like the menu opening above and to the left
kinda weird...heiroglyphics read left to right i think =]

[Bazrazmataz]

What ??? Heiroglyphics whats that all about?

I already shaved about 50 pixels off the banner and menu i dont want to go any smaller!

As for the layout prob ive id that before and am in the process of resolving i dont know why the font is smaller in the first paragraph on your computer is definatley not on any other i tested.

Cheers for the commets

Okay I was wrong about the font-size, its the line-height/leading thats causing it to look smaller than the rest...

There's something that you've specified for everything else, but not the first one on that particular page. If you Ctrl+Mouse wheel its also the only part that remains a fixed size.

Attached another example...
