    Cool Completely rebuilt site

    I've completely redone my Sunwings.info site. New graphics, colour scheme, etc. You'll notice I've turned the site into a shopping site and I'm selling .xar files, but this thread is solely for discussing the site design it's self.

    For any questions regarding sunwings products please use the contact links at Sunwings.info

    I had not seen the previous site, Frances but this does look good, I personally would work on the spacing between columns and also there is a large expanse of white on the footer. A great idea for the site by the way. The logo is brilliant, I really like the font you have used.

    Looks clean and fun.

    The logo kind of just sits there though. A soft shadow might lift it off the page a bit.

    Thanks Skech and Gary I've now added some extra space between the columns and after some investigation I found that the place holder for the G+ badge was oversized and part of it extended below the bottom of the page causing the expanse of white background below the footer. I've got that all sorted now.
    I was going for a clean flat look, but I have been thinking about using a shadow to raise the logo off the page a bit.

    Oh and the font for the logo, and the headings is called Winona Pro. It's a web font I purchased in a collection from Softmaker.com

    If you follow Gary's suggestion for the shadow do so just on the butterfly.

    I was just doing that exact thing I think it looks great, almost as if the butterfly has just landed on the text. Thanks to both of you
