    i think the consensus here is that a) it's very pretty looking - so as a designer of pretty looking, attractive sites, you've done well.
    and b) the site is ridiculously long to load, thus removing most of any audience.. - so as a designer of websites, you just 'may' have to rethink a few things, and possibly hire a usability guy or something.
    i loaded it up and looked at it...was impressed with it visually, but the load time almost made me turn it off....actually, the only reason i waited is that since I'm a fellow designer, i wanted to give an honest opinion....but that's going to be rare dude...most folks are NOT designers that recognize your name on QBN and want to see your latest work....my wife, for example would have just clicked off after a few seconds, and since she's the one in our house that actually buys bottled water, she's a fairly accurate representation of your audience....she would definitely not have waited to see any of that stuff....
    regardless of how good something looks (and i repeat, i thought it looked quite nice) if it takes that long to load, no one will wait. no one.
    my guess is the direction from this either came from a print campaign, or that it will part of one? because all i could think was that the creative seemed better suited to print...
