I don't get why you'd have popups for the plans and agree it is a bit dark. Otherwise- clean and functional.

I will probably remove the popups. I didn't know if they were a good idea or not. Are they annoying? I may not get into hosting at all. Sounds kind of iffy. I kind of like the black oriented sites, but if I go brighter, it starts to look like an adult site. Thanks for you input. BTW, this is an excellent board.

Thanks

I don't think it's to dark, I would just kill the bright banners at the top. Then I think the page would look more "brighter". The pop ups are fine, I don't mind them.

I also do not think the design is too dark. I would consider putting some sort of ordering link directly on your description. While the ordering page looks nice people often forget the specifics of the plan they are looking at (ADHD!).

I just don't see the need for the popup. I find it irritating only because often if something pops up, it is a ad which I can't stand. Popup ads have made me hate any pop up. Though I do think it works better for a feature description when you really don't want them to leave the page just to see what a POP account is. For the packages though, I'd just design that into a page. Only one chicken's vote.

Very nice, clean, crisp, fast loading, and to the point. I would try to push one of your plans a little more on the first page. Maybe in a different color, big letters, just to get peoples attention right away

Other than that. Great site, and no it's not to dark

A nice clean, clear design. There is something that irks me about it though and I can't quite put my finger on it... The best I can think of is the top and bottom 'loop' things. I can see the page without them, and the table set wider to make more use of the page. I'm not too sure about the 100101 background either. That sort of thing always looks a little 'homepage' looking to me.

The color is fine though... Grey and purple has always been a great color combo in my eyes.

Yes, I decided against the black. Went with traditional white. It is running now. http://www.apacesolutions.com

Thanks for all your input.
For me, anyway, black is the worst color to work with.
