I think it looks good, fits in pretty well with their layout. Nice work.

I think the banner is ok. It doesn't really grab my attention and i probably would not click it. The animation needs work, perhaps using another colour would make it alot more interesting and spice it up.

Sorry Rob, I have failed to please you

Anyway, thanks for the comments lol. It was my first swing at ImageReady and well, I understand it now but just became lazy to fix the animation in that banner.

The banner is nice but the filesize is HUGE. And when the second animation fades out... it shifts to the right and up about 4 pixels... Great design though.

WOW, filesize is massive. You should aim for around 15-20kb.

a banner that takes longer than the site to load is a big no-no

other than that, its pretty nice good job

I think it's really good! With a suitable place in a page, I think this banner will defintely stand out. I like your use of gradients as well as animation, very nice

As a few mentioned, the animation of the "Instant activation" text does shift but, for some reason I think you did that on purpose. A sort of...fade to the right effect? If that was what you were after, you may want to bring in the "500mb disk space" after the "instant activation" text fully fades away.

But it doesn't mean that if the design didn't please one person that it's not good. We all have different tastes and if you were to take every comment you recieve to heart, then we'll never be able to focus on properly improving your personal style.

Keep up the great work nightspy, I like the banner very much!
