My Custom Design Service: Critiques Welcome...
Hi Guys,
I recently purchased a new domain to give my webdesign Company a new, fresh modern feel (Boxedpixels.com - Still under construction). My friend asked me to design a website for his hosting compnay, I was happy with the idea as he was going to host my website for free and help with any coding I may need...
I designed this - www.boxedpixels.com/Portfolio/Revres (Logo will soon be placed in top left corner)
Please could you give me any comments which may help to improve the design.
I also would like to ask how much you guys think I should charge for my custom webdesign service.. I would like to know how much for just .psd and for .psd and html coding..
Thanks alot,
BPixels

Your graphic skills are not bad at all, that's just fine. But I think that header height is too big, reduce header size and than it will be excellent work.

very nice
As for custom work prices, imo there shouldn't be a flat fee, custom work should allow for a flexible price depengin on what your client requires. For the kind of quality you have showing here, if it were custom i would reccomend not charging less than $250 without coding thats a minimum in my opinion, with standard coding an extra $50 minimum plus extra for each page and plus extra for content#
keep up the good work

Yeah... I would say that $250+ would be good for that.
The header seems a bit too big... and if that was made in photoshop, how in the hell did you get your text so clear? Mine is always blurry when its set on smooth, sharp, or crisp... and it looks like hell with its set to "none."

small pixel fonts = no AA
larger fonts = AA
if it still doesn't look it might just be a case of the font your trying to use?
