The people come in a little blurry and not as sharp as I would like but that might be the look you are going for also the orange text on the peach back ground on the right is a little hard to read. The site is a 100% better than the old though. Looks nice.

The people are a blury, perhaps you should use a .jpg instead of a .gif.

Yeah we would use a higher res for the people pics.. i wasnt very concerned with it because its just a demo site right now.

I like the current design better.. infact, honestly speaking even the current design is too simple Brendan. You need to make it a little more "spicy".

Hi Brendan I'm new here but I hope you don't mind me commenting on your site

Anyway I like the new design better than the current one except for a few things:

The orange bar on the right is too contrast with the rest of the site, but it's not contrast enough with the text it contains.. maybe you could darken the orange background and lighten the orange text in it.. kinda like a swap

The people images are out of focus.. it looks like you forced them in 256 colors. Perhaps you could use jpegs instead.. you can keep the file size small enough and retain the detail at the same time.

Also if you don't happen to have your own designer yet I would be honored to help you out in any/all of your design work. I'm a beginner webdesigner but if you like my style maybe we could work something out, what do you think?

You have great services btw.. I didn't know there's a host with such services

Later!
