i rebooted our corporate site this past week. i'd like some feedback from the design community.
if anything doesn't look quite right, please screenshot it for me and let me know your browser.
thanks.

first off, I dig the overall look. noticed a few things though:
1. Speed up the nav drop downs a bit, both the sliding down and the rollover, they seemed to lag a bit.
2. The photos you're using in the initial paragraph of each section are being resized through HTML and it's making them look really bad. I'd resize them in PS and then put them in the page.
3. On the clients page, there are some links to specific clients that appear off the main content area to the right. Not sure if this was intentional or not.
PS I'm using Firefox on XP Pro

yeah, I got that in my browser as well.
XP Pro Firefox

ouch, that's the worst by far.
thanks for your comments... i'll look into the css problem. trouble is, Mac IE is so ancient and so limited in saturation that i might have to bite the bullet on that one.
the firefox issue is troubling me though. i'll look into it.
anyone else?

this is also my first attempt at standards compliant coding (for a larger site). so these hacks between browsers in the css are killing me. that right column has been a problem all along.
for some reason, Mac IE keeps wanting to put it after all the left column content.
but the firefox thing is new and crazy. - and it looks like the client page is the only one with issues. that bugs me.

I'm getting a similar problem with that right column as well and I'm using Safari/macOSx.

apart from those issues it's slick man - about a 200% improvement on teh old one!

thanks jevad. +1 for you.
i'm working on the css issues still. i got side tracked today.
thanks for your help. if anyone wants to take a look and help with the css (if you think you can do it). that'd be much appreciated.

Looks GOOD! The only comment I have and not sure exactly how ur doing the blurs for the copy.... but they look alright.... just seems that when they become unblurred, there is a slight change in color and then a dramatic change... like maybe the animation is slow or something..
Good Luck looks good tough..
