logos a bit hard to read because of the effects and looks like blur21, don’t get the drain background, everything is taking visual dominance so eyes can’t rest anywhere, few too many black lines or white lines or gaps or something. could use some creative addition of colour somewhere. But it looks pretty good.

i think it’s visually confusing. i don’t really know what to look at and i have a hard time focusing on any one thing. everything seems like it’s yelling at me.

I’m getting tired of all the metal backgrounds etc in websites. I think you should have a simple dark gradient.  
I like the labels going diagonally across things though.

The images are waaaay to over my head! Dang man… If someone on XTC looked at your site, he’d pass out due to enforced hallucinogenia! :lol:

Anyway, widen things a little. Get that effect on the logo to less than half of it’s value. Your nav links’ alignment has a 1-2 degree offset with the angle of the background strip.

I LOVE the background :thumb:
