First photoshop page

[joeivo]

Hi all!

I'm currently in the middle of a course covering web/graphic design. I have constructed websites in the past but my understanding and use of photoshop was minimal. So here is a test of my first page using only photoshop (and of course one of Colins super tuts).
Please tell me what you think,

[Ashworks]

pretty nice, watch that text tho. its very shapr. personally i would just drop it (The red text)

[Paper_Joe]

I think that it's very original. I really haven't seen anything quite like it. Good Job.

Thanks folks!

Ashworth...Yes I think you're right there.

This is your 1st photoshop page? *sigh* Mine was an abomination in comparison. :lol

I agree about dropping the red text.

Really nice nav bar design. If you even out the spacing of the buttons it'll be absolutely perfect.

Cheers Fantasm

I think thats a commendation of Colins remote teaching ability. The offending text has been removed and it looks a lot cleaner.

I like it!

I hope to someday be able to make
a page myself... Still covering the
basics though....

later

Thanks a lot Misterpicman!

I'm still struggling with the basics myself, but I find that sometimes things suddenly make sense while following a tutorial, and they give me a sense of what is truly possible.
