we're still playing around with the portfolio system which is a little jumpy and the arrows need sorting out but i think we're almost there :D

Oh, thank god you've gotten rid of those terrible cartoon versions of yourselves!
The showcase nav is a bit extreme/jumpy.
You're an ex-SEO perp, aren't you? What're your thoughts on single page websites and SEO?
- i'd consider closing current section before opening next one - like you do when closing current showpiecedetritus
- yeah we're working on it

For the arrows in the showcase...try the following to center the arrows in the circle:
Height / font-size = line-height

not ex seo, i am an 'online marketing manager' covering everything (its what seo's have to do now)
one page sites are amazing for SEO... just kepe the keyword density high and dont link out!
i ranked a site on page 1 for 'accident claims' a very competitive keyword using this method in just 3 months! we predicted 18 months with their main site.
- See, that's what I think, but I was informed differently recentlydetritus
- link from one page sites and exac t match domains are devalued but the sites themselves rank well

Use firebug to locate the carousel control. To make the circle smaller just play around with the width and height......as for the arrow, that's the font-size.
To have the buttons outside the container I believe you have to set the position to absolute and play with the margin attributes?

Looks fairly good. There are a couple of points I'd like to mention, though.
The spacing within the green navigation bar at the top seems awkward to me. Maybe have the links centered between the two vertical lines? Maybe distribute them more evenly, and not bunch them to the left.
Anyway, I think that needs adjusting.
Also, I think that collage of computers, phones, plants, dice, etc., on the home screen is discordant with the rest of the site. It interrupts the unity projected by the rest of the design.
Also, I wonder if every product picture should be an Apple product? I mean, I know they look nice, and I know your text says otherwise, but people may get the mistaken impression you only work on Apple products.

The font combination does not feel right, particularly the condensed face.

utopian... our MD wanted it so we're stuck with it... personally i think the thin font sucks
