"It's not a Web site until there's content about beef tacos."
this is my new motto.

Needs more **SHAZAM!**. On boot-up it looks a bit like one of those auto-generated domain filling sites - especially the quartered bullet points in the nav.
What does that video section in the bottom left do, other than look bleak and a little worrying?
Your header image is awful. Truly awful.
You make use of some good widgetry - the slideshow on the homepage and the Contact section, for instance - but overall, it doesn't gel at all. Although I quite like the overall page structure, it feels like it's been put together by a techie without any design nous.
If you want to get a positive reception when asking for a crit, it helps if you don't react like a child if someone's a bit scathing - otherwise you'll just put the rest of us off you.
- oh, you didn't ask for a crit - just for us to 'check it out'. Well, I did. So there you go.detritus

What is a 'producer' at a web company anyway?
- neither designer nor programmer.
funnily enough, that probably describes what I doemecks - Cool. Me too.
Assuming, of course, that producers spend most of their time picking their nose...detritus - only between shuffling the spoils into the mouth.emecks

children, children, if your all done now displaying your obvious immaturity and lack of experience in a field that has clients giving input and studies showing what a specific demographic wants.... I will announce that thanks to your input I made a series of tweaks to optimize the site. Oh and when the main benefactor who is a billionaire tells you he wants a certain thing on the site, even design takes a backseat to that.... so before you all go flappin your gums, maybe learn from someone who has been in this business longer than you have had pubic hair...

- for someone whos been in the business all that time their is a hell of a lot of mistakesmaximillion_
- I would have to disagree that just because a billionaire client tells you what they want design takes a backseat. It really doesn’t matter how much money the client has, they are paying for your service and expertise. If you don’t agree with what they request you should tell them why you disagree and make suggestions on approaching it differently. If they still want to go in the direction when it is all said in done that’s fine, but its your responsibility to make the effort to guide them in the right direction.crillix

"longer than you have had pubic hair..." man. if you are so long in the business, you should learn not to take criticspersonal and also, not to be too evangelic.

Nah, he's just an arrogant, self-aggrandizing toad. It's amazing where a few good connections can get you in life, isn't it?
