http://www.designbyjaymz.com/Preview those are some of my templates that are in the making, but as you will notice, all of them have a detailed header, then a boring nav and content area. What can I do to those that'll bring more interest to them?

You have a serious addiction to scanlines don't you? :)

You my friend, are missing out on the wonders of drop shadows, and outer/inner glows.

Free template, I'm working on. Notice the shadows?: http://upload.server...rs3/free111.png

Would do wonders to the designs.

Faken won't like that...

Heheh... it's all about experience :) Jaymz, just practise many techniques and don't get stuck in the trap of doing the same thing over and over again :)

Jag - I can open that no problem... it must be an MSN quirk.

Spicing up designs? Find a new approach. Take notice that all your designs are the same: Banner, and 2 seperated boxes. Using content boxes, rollover images, swap pics, flash, etc.
