I know you all would rather do something else, but I would like to know what you think so far of my layout. I was playing with some colors and learning iframes and came up with something I like. Take a look and help a fellow macnn'er out!

pretty cool layout, although I think the first Capital M looks kinda like a T.

I did get permission for now. Its basically a filler til I get things settled in.

(which is why there is a link to the site from the image itself)

So how large is this site going to get before it becomes uneasy to navigate? Good use of color on the site. Interesting flash movie in the cap section...

I have always believed that the best web designs scale to fit almost any size monitor. Static widths are just a pet peeve of mine, i guess.

Definitely beef up the contrast on your site's text, the rollover makes it easier, but still, should be legible without the cursor's assistance. Like the colors otherwise, very clean, I like 'em clean...

Will do. Its hard to pick colors that work so well together like this, but I will explore options. Thanks.

Blue looks better, goes well as the table border color too.
