hi. i like the site its looking well structured and its easy to follow. the colors work well. and it looks very professional. in firefox the menu and heading seems to change a little when i click on different pages sometimes the strap line changes and sometimes it isnt there! also i think it might be a bit over busy having votes and things on there might be a bit to much. it does make it more friendly but if i was booking office space i would want to book it of a professional company over a friendly company. overall i think the site is very impresive and works well.
if you want any help with a more individual logo take a look at my portfolio on my site www.firefields.com and if your interested please let me know. if not i would greatly appreciate your criticisms of my website.
thank you. rob.

I'm really a great fan of minimalist websites - they're fast and never too busy. Yours is a good example - works well and has plenty of content. From an appearance point of view it somehow lacks 'splash' or 'sparkle'. I think the high quality content would be greatly enhanced by more color - maybe by CSS'ing the headings plus a few call out boxes.
It's a great site but needs more ooomph! Not animation or the rest of the usual junk - but a more startling structure, more contrast with great headings and white space. I read somewhere a long while ago that you should sell the sizzle not the sausages. This is what I'm getting at - you've got great 'sausages' but I can't hear [or see] the sizzle. Hope this helps. Best wishes, Jack.
