Heya guys, as some of you may know (and others not know) my new business is opening its flood gates in about a week or so and i may have to start doing "some" of my own gfx work, not all, but selected stuff.
Well, over the last couple of weeks I have done the crash coarse of photoshop and probably tried every tutorial on the web.
Here is a recent layout I am working on, and would like to get some honest opinions, as well as some suggestions as what i should add/edit/remove/whatever.
Sorry to post up here, but its one of the busiest boards I visit, and you guys surf a lot of web.
p.s. The big black circle is for a logo i have yet to scan and get into photoshop, so that is just a placeholder till i get it imported.
Thanks
RenEvo

Honestly, when i first glanced at it i didn't like it, it seemed blurry, then i relised i am still hungova!
Looked at it again, and i like it, only thing that id suggest would be checking out how those 'text blocks' look together rather then three seperate.
Overall, pretty
In the end it doesn't matter if you are who you say you are. You will still mean nothing to me.
When i have kids, everytime i drive past a fast food restaurant, im gonna punch my kid in the face, then they'll never wanna come..

Doesn't look too bad. Just the font that I think is a bit out of place, sort of blends together, needs more definition of the characters I'd say. I take it that it's a web design business? You having skills in ASP and that, just figured.
I've never been good at the creative/design side of things, so I stick to learning the programming behind things.
Not bad though, If you develop it more, it could look pretty good.

The shadows on those stripes, and on the blue curve where it says "Bean" make the object look odd. You need to play around with those esp. in blending options.
Sign up on http://tutorialforums.com/ They have thousands or members. Not trying to draw away traffic or anything lol. Those forums revolve around Graphics mainly and are in association with some other sites that provide tutorials etc.
Visit http://www.spoono.com and http://robouk.mchost.com
You can easily add an aqua effect to the blue curve at the top with a tut on robouk which i used to use alot because it was so quick.
There is alot out there to learn, and it is a BIG community.
