Hey,
Had a lot of spare time on my hands today, so I tried out some new techniques on photoshop.

I think it's pretty apparent as to where I got my inspiration from.

Comments and criticism greatly appreciated.

I'm not a big fan of the colors.

You are combining an "elegant green" color with a bright orange colorset, and a really faded out gray in the background which really washes it out.

I like your layout. But, try changing the colors a bit. Change the background to a darker gray, and add more saturation into the green.

Cole.

Text is too big and the colours don't go very well, i'd personally use a totally different colour scheme.

Hmmm, the colors don't seem to flow at all. Also, working on proportions might make the site easier to look at.

I am not a big fan of this, it just doesn’t seem to work. None of the fonts you have used seem to fit the design at all. Why is there a strong drop shadow on the top box and not on any of the others?

The logo needs some work, at the moment its just some generic text with nothing added to it.

Why is there such a big space for “news”? I really can’t see what “news” there would be for an image upload website. People don’t care about news, they just want to upload their images / files.

This design needs some serious work.

Ok, Jon's right. The previous design was major overkill.

So... It's been redesigned. C&C please.
