If I have to be honest..if you would surf the net and come across a site with those colors, I would immediatly shut down the internet. I think the colors are to bright to look at. Else than that, nice, clean layout.

Maybe tone down the orange just a bit, and add a contrasting color to maybe the logo or text.

Otherwise it looks like you made a nice layout.

Ok just took a look again at the head, the slogan is very hard to read, id suggest making the text "thinner" so we can read it easier. And like i said before try making the head text or the whole head itself a different color to contrast with the orange that is everywhere else. Maybe even brainstorm so logos you could make and put on there....

Nice job, its getting better :P

I dont really like the color of the head text, and i still think you should make the slogan more readable. Also maybe take away some of the scan lines which seem to be everywhere, as this can caues some trouble in stretching.

Keep up the good work :D

I wouldn't use bold on the text...
First "updated" version is good.

Your first update called "THIS" looks the best of the two. Like funky said try not to use bold type on the things people are to read, like the slogan and your copyright on the bottom i can hardly read.
