New design... opinions please!
OK, I redesigned the YELLOW BEAST I posted yesterday. What do you guys think of this one? I think it's kind of dull.

You might want to consider preloading the rollover images. When I rolled them I got open, white space until the image finally loaded. Also your header image seems to cast a shadow that doesn't fit quite right with the content body box. Otherwise, colors are a lot more soothing and the layout is pretty nice.
i see little broken images in the header... inbetween the link blocks...
u can use CSS background-images for those, and when you hover over them have the position move... so basically.. instead of "changing images" when you roll over.. it will be the same image, different part showing... that fixes loading problems, as it is the same image...
but what's with the broken images in between? ... wierd...
id show u a screenshot but i dont have access from work to upload this pic to my ftp

Did you change the content box BG color? I like the beige-ish bg color. Are you going to use a serif font like what is on there now? Have you tried a sans serif font with it (Verdana, Arial, etc)? Just wondering what it would look like with a softer font.The Ninja Space Goat wrote:I like it now... check it out.
EDIT: (to everah: yes I will do all that... this is just the preliminaries... ha)
I'm liking the roma/serif fonts better on this site... check it out...

About those "broken images"...
I don't know why they would be "broken" but the images between the navigation links on the top of the page are about 3 pixels below where they should be and I cannot for some reason get them to go where they should be!! Why? anybody?
EDIT: FIXED THE PROBLEM WITH THE 3px thing
