I like the concept and the logo works well with the site. I think it is a little big, but that is ok. I would like to see it once the links are working again.

If you want to come into one of the open labs on Tuesday or Friday I can help you. Its hard to gauge or critique when its all broken.

Hard to give feedback. Not that you dont have enough to do but your logo is a bit ragged around the edges. literally. I'm a bit confused as to what the buttons are going to look like for your different pages. Normally the text is the button so are they like icons or what. Maybe it is just broken and it will look different later. Also I would pay some attention to your alignments, stuff like that is extremely noticeable.

Agreed, it's very tough to give feedback when the site is broken. I do have a few things from looking at it, but it's tough to give a full assessment.

Firstly, you do use contrast well throughout. It's easy to see everything and navigate the website. The layout looks clean and very "Las Vegas" to me. ;)

Aside from the fact that it's broken, a couple of issues stand out for me. One, the site is massive on anything that isn't super high res. :shock: When I have to scroll around on my 1440x960 laptop to see the whole site, something is wrong. It needs to be made either for smaller resolutions or, more ideally, liquid and or responsive to the resolution of a viewing device. Two, I notice a lack of pictures all the way around. I have a rough idea of what the site is about, but without imagery it becomes difficult to tell what's going on.

You have the foundation of a good website here, but it needs to be cleaned up, have images added, and set so that you don't need a monster monitor to interact with the website. Keep working on it.

I think you should vectorize the logo and use background colors for the divs. Good concept. Keep working!
