At least your images are too big in filesize. It takes ages to load even on broadband.

You also have many unnecessary animations there. Maybe consider reducing them.

Welcome to Outfront abtoons

Nice design but I did notice that in 800x600 a visitor can't even get to the last link at the top as it goes out of view and no scrollbar to get to it. You have your table set up to be 900 pixels in width......which is why some elements are not accessible in 800x600. Have you considered using percentages instead of pixels for your table width?

Cheers for the advise. I initially designed it in photoshop targeted at a 1024 X 768, but have now learnt it is much wiser to design around a global screen resolution, instead of one.

Nice colour scheme. I like the look. :)

I'd ditch the hit counter though. They're so easy to fake, but on the whole all they tend to do is show how many visitors you haven't had on a young site.

Hi

Your main content area's text is overlapping the left hand border a bit in Firefox.

I also think the design is ok, but you need to “professionalize” it a bit:

Fix the spelling mistakes. You don't offer “Fash banners” or “MSN Emocons”, and you don't have a “copywrite” for your work, but “copyright”.

Also, fix the “I” in this text graphic:

I think you did a great job, overall.

Having to register, though, to see the examples turned me off. Maybe it's a must for you site, I don't know.

Maybe offer registration after showing some examples?
