That looks pretty good, assuming you going to do that all in CSS. The navigation bar looks pretty wierd.

This definatley gets a lot of points for originality.

Your dealing with stuffed shirt bankers that like clean precise text and output!!

If I take it right you are building this site for a bank or franchisee from a bank.

They will hate the site - nothing stands out and it appears to be something from a horror movie or halloween site.

They prefer clean well defined text and navigation - so in my opinion NO It Will Not Be Well Accepted!!

Sorry!!

Regards
Frank

I just don't think the site looks very professional. Maybe that is because the design is original. I think you could improve it with some more colors. Right now, pretty much everything is blue. You need at least another color to make things stand out.

I personally find it hard to give a quality critique of a site when all you get is a screenshot. Maybe the site will look much better when it is fully implemented.

not professional at all. you have overused the white-blue gradiant to the nth degree. having the entire thing encased in a bordered table is not good, because it does not allow for content expansion, which is what any franchise looks for most. the links are awful, can't read any of them without straining my eyes. overuse of blue overall. should be more warm and welcoming, so try to use more light colors, and keep a white background

oh, and JFetting, this is generally how layouts are mocked up so the developer doesn't have to code everything every time there is a change in the coloring or something

Well you probably tried, but this is a miss. All I see is blue. Where am I supposed to focus? How am I supposed to read? If you went to a site that was all blue, what would you think?

The organization is nice, but you need to work out your colors, graphics, and goals for the site.
