Left Coffee Cup for Xara Web Design MX Premium

[angelize]

Hi Peter, Welcome to Talkgraphics!

I linked the site for you.

The site looks very nice, I did notice a couple of minor things though. First the text beside the Google plus Button on the home page runs of the side of the page. Second on the about page the text columns perhaps would look better aligned to the edges of the photos above them. The leftmost column actually touches the dividing line. If you click the padlock icon on the info bar this turns on the Magic Snapping and it will make lining things up ... well... a snap!

All in all a great site!

Thank you! That means a lot coming from you. I made some adjustments, should be different now.

Very nice site.

You might want to consider a wider resolution. It shows up kind of small on 1024x600

Also, I don't think the bevel effect on the eagle/flag image adds anything. Perhaps blending it into the header as a fill on a rectangle with rounded corners that match the right side of the header (you can create the exact shape you need by using the shape combine functions).

The rounded-corner rectangle inside of a rounded-corner rectangle concept seems a little redundant to me. Maybe mix straight & rounded?

There isn't enough contrast (blue on blue) for the links on the "Computers" page. You could change the standard links colors or turn them off and use a font color with more contrast.

The certificates might look better without a 3D effect.

Excellent work for a first effort! (P.S. Thank you for using a readable font size for your content - maybe you could increase the menu font size as well?)
