before I provide feedback, give me some more background on what this site is about... it looks pretty cool, but I feel like you're trying to sell me a solar system?

ahhhhh...what?!@$%#
the site is for a friends studio. they specialize in marketing for all high-tech companies.

OK, hence, the "techy" feel. To be blunt, I feel lost on the page, to much to look at it seems... and the lingo on there make it seem like a sci-fi movie; I think you've gone a little too techy, hence the 2A comments; it has that late 90's early 2000's super-tech look. My personal opinion is that you can simplify that quite a bit, but still have that tech look going on as well.

in all honesty, point5 is right, this look was done to death about 5 years ago. If this site is for a marketing firm, shouldn't they have some cutting edge ideas on how to market themselves.
yea!

totally agree....they are great when it comes to print work and have the hardware for incredible print work (heildleberg print presses for full 6-color process printing) but they want a portal site which targes clients like Discovery channel

It's very busy. Which can be a good thing, but this a little bit of not-good as well (it's one thing to keep finding interesting stuff all the time, but it's another to just lost the heirachy or your way). BUT THAT layout stuff aside....there is a definite feel to it.....I would remove a lot of dots, lines and spangles and generally distracting pieces. And also why not play with the colour more? Maybe for headers. I'm not a massive fan of the rugged concrete look with the bordering, but thats a personal thing.
Gutsy layout, decent effort, needs reordering. Does what it does, bob's your uncle.

One very nice quote I heard on Mark Romanek's Directors' Label DVD yesterday: "If it's not emotionally engaging, it's gotta go no matter what". I like that. I also like cereal. And French Bread.

i take this as flattery. thx, but no it is my comp and i am seeking feedback
- madirish0
seriously?? i was dead serious in what i said, but glad no harm taken.
if the solution works for the design problem rock it.
- Rushmore0
maybe im missing something here but madirish is right, that is a leaked 2advanced comp.
- Initiator0
rushmore: not sure what you are missing other than maybe a critique if you would plz.....not so sure about the leaked comp, again i suppose this is flattery?
