Definitely keeping it simple, but I'd say that this site carries the approach to the extreme. As a site promoting web design, I'd think you'd want to go for a bleeding edge web 2.0 style, not a 90's throwback...

Recommendations:
1. scrap the tables- css layouts are the only way to go for a professional site.
2. your content cell needs a top margin / padding
3. pictures are your friends- use them!

Shame about the table usage, although I think we've all wandered off the beaten path to get a job done on occasion.

Overall I like it, but I'm dying to change the font, it suggests to me that the CSS hasn't loaded properly. Make it the same / similar to your logo font and will look much better imo

Yea, I know the tables isnt the best thing right now, but its using Joomla and I just dont have the time to convert at this moment. The basic layout is using all divs, its just the content being placed by joomla

As for the nicer look Im working now on a few more templates so that it can be switched between site style by switching css only.

Thanks for the reviews!
