Beautiful template, the colours complement eachother well and the header is very good :rolleyes:, may I ask what the text is in the header?

Also I beg you not to use Comic sans in the finished product, looks so tacky.

SF Burlington Script is the font in the header.
Yea I was messing with the fonts I never use Comic sans but I just left it like t hat because arial and other fonts didnt go to well with the other fonts and designs.

I really like the layout. But the only thing i think you could do to improve the look is to get rid of the glossy sidings and add in a very sharp, chrome-looking stroke around the edges. That way it gives stronger definition to the overall layout.

Overall, nice job. It's very simple and it looks easy to navigate.

I dont see any glossy things...and what do you mean give it a strong chrome border, that would make it look odd :)

The rounded borders that the layout sits on, the corners are blurred and look fairly glossy to me. It just looks as if you just added a drop-shadow and a stroke layer style to a rounded-square.

From what I mean by "strong chrome border" is to give the border (of the rounded-square in which the layout sits on) a very sharp, silver/dark-grey pixel stroke (with a width of 2px, each pixel a shade of white/black). It might not sound too great, but give it a try and see what comes out of it.
