I guess review our site since not many have posted here.

Thank you for your time to look at our website.

Very well laid out. The navigation makes it easy to find what I wanted to find. I tried to not find something but your site made that impossible. :D As I said, everything looks good, so I had to get picky...

Header:
Your header seems a bit plain for such a nicely laid out site. Everything is done very well though, and I don't think the header (logo area) is bad, just that if you were ever going to change and zip something up a bit, this is what I'd focus on.

Navigation:
In my opinion, there's little need for two places to navigate the site (going across, right under the header and the left navigation which goes down). Either one seems like it would do the job, and I don't feel both are needed.

You could keep the top horizontal navigation and move up the Web Hosting under the domain search to keep it handy (also, these pages aren't linked anywhere else but here, so I'd move it up to be sure people click on them). Rollovers are nice.

The forum:
If there's one thing that stuck out, it was the forum. Colors changed, headers disappeared, and there was no way to get back to the site. Match the colors with the rest of the site and throw the whole thing inside the content area of the design and you're done.

Your top navigation roll overs don't work for me on ie 6. Otherwise it looks very nice.

Good Job!

1) The rollovers are only made for IE 6.x (I slacked and used JScript not JavaScript) ... so the left side is there too.

2) Forum, our old site was green and my web designer has been too busy to re-skin the forum even though I haven yelled at him for 2 weeks =/. I'm still working on him changing it.

I originally didn't have the links from the top on the left but it was a last minute decsion based on just 4 links on the left looked very very empty ... and a bit odd.

Thanks for your suggestions and kind comments.
