So, I updated my site...

[markoibook]

Hi guys, I've just updated my site to reflect our progression into sunnier times and better weather - plus it really really needed an overhaul anyway.
So I'm just looking for feedback on my site update. I've changed my colour and font scheme, updated my graphics, and changed the format of my home page to a blog-centric design.
If you have a few spare minutes, please take a look and give me some feedback - it will be much appreciated!!!

My site is at http://www.foylesystems.com

Cheers,

Marko

Just a quick glance but... overall very pleasing colors, and good design.

Nice job. I like the color combo. Easy and consistent navigation.

My only suggestion is on your About page, you have a white background on your signature whereas the part of the page has a light green/yellow color to it. IMO, it would look better with the signature with the same background so it looks more natural rather than just placed there.

Yeah, still gotta fix that - the background of the page used to be white, hence why the signature background is still white - there are a few pics like that still to fix!
Cheers for looking!

Overall, nice design. I like the color scheme and 3-column layout. It's clean and gentle. Rolling over the links on the left hand side produces pleasing complimentary, red underlined text. Some things I might take a look at:

You've got 2-pixel line boarders around all your rectangular boxes that I might experiment changing to 1-pixel boarders. Along with that, maybe experiment with a darker colored boarder as well; possibly a dark blue or black.

Next, maybe play with a more unique "logo" for your site name. Not really a logo per se, but maybe a more graphical representation of the site name. I'm not sure; "foyalsystems" with greenery and lush fauna behind it is a hair disconnected. Maybe try to connect the text visually with what you have going on as the feel of the site.

Lastly, and most visually disconcerting (for me anyway) is in the central blog box. You have large text for the titles in which the letters are kerned too far apart from each other. I would find a way to make the letters closer together. Along with that, you have a giant space vertically between your title text and your article text. I would eliminate the carriage return there. Keep the carriage return between the bottom of the article and the next title however.

...Just some tips that may or may not please your eye more.
