well for originality, I’d say I’ve seen stuff like it before, but for quality, I say its a very clean layout. Reminds me of xeofreestyle, I’m sure you’ve been to their site. I was trying to play with your navigation and nothing seemed to work, but I remembered that you’re not done. You might want to add some sound and work on your splash page. ---

Yeah, this is pretty cool. I like the face to the side. Only thing that bugs me a bit is the small size of the font… ---

Your splash screen needs to fit your page a little better. Other then that it is nice ---

calaway42, that metallic effect is fairly simple. With photoshop: 1. Create the box (whichever shape/size you want) with white fill in (it doesn’t really matter which color) 2. On the layers box, right click on the box layer and choose blending options. 3. Tick gradient overlay, then set the two gradient colors. (e.g. from gray to white) that’s it!. All it is , is some gradients. you can finish that off by adding drop shadow (set distance 0, and increase the size a little bit) hope that helps. ---

:o lol, what i did is just create a small box and fill it with the gradient . then i rotate that box, and make the gradient fade up to down… and just use the transform tool to enlarge the gradient to fit ure needs. i hope it helps. 😛 thanks for tha comments ---
