Hello, and if you got this far, thank you for taking the time to look. We just rolled out a new design of our site:
New Design
This included a new header image and new tabs. We also move the login from the left side to the top, and made the color of the content boxes match the new design. What do you think? Anything we could improve?

    Hi dvduval, I like your design because it is clean and simple. That is what I would expect from a php script site. If I were to change anything, I would change the color of the headers in the content boxes to white. I think they would "pop" more and be easier to read.

      Thanks for the feedback. We actually did try white and they didn't seem to "pop" as much as we thought, and hence the current color.

        It's nice and simple but not very catchy for its purpose. Needs more oomph. Why I should buy should be popping out at me the minute I see it.

        Look at bluehost.com. Just an example but see how their message pops out at you and you know everything within seconds.

          Yes, actually the content area is what I am going to work on next, and I think I will be able to do something along these lines. Thanks for the feedback.

      What would make it more eye catching? Are you just repeating what he said about Bluehost, or do you have something else in mind?

      Thank you, I liken it to Web 2.0/Windows 7 colors. A designer came up with it for us, and I really like it too.

      Maybe the same thing could be said about the Google homepage?

      Thanks, we actually added some tooltips on the registration page, and have even more one the user is logged in. We also are now showing different content on the homepage for a guest compared with a logged in user, so very 2.0 is some ways. We didn't want to add too much overhead, so we didn't go crazy with too many effects, but I do hope to keep getting better.
