I don't know.. wasn't feeling this site

I think the site is effective. Sure it isn't the best looking thing around but it is easy to navigate, easy to read and probably a great fit for the company. I haven;t checked in depth but it looks solidly constructed too.

I think the content is very well organized. As an outdoor enthusiast (I hate that term...) I was able to find things that would interest me. And generally I like the design. Good work. My one nit is that the logo in the upper left doesn't jive with the rest of the site. the site is soft and very professional - while the logo looks stark and a little outdated. (could be a designer working with the clients existing logo... been there...)

nice work.

Once again, a site that fails one text-resize. Any site that gets featured here should ALWAYS pass at least one notch of text upsize. It's plain laziness if it does not. This one does not.

I'm sure this popped up on other CSS sites about 4 or 5 months ago.

Not a bad design though and, apart from the text resize issue, it's very user friendly.

Hmmm ...

Glow around the images - just looks wierd - certainly not 'natural'. There are literally millions of beautiful outdoor stock photos that, with the right crop and no manipulation, would add so much visual richness to the design.

Also, the logo has no space - it looks like it's been shoved in the corner and is 'fighting' for air with the contact details - put them on the contact page - that's what it's for!

The content needs space also - too many different things are brought to your attention in such a small space - this makes me question it being 'very user friendly'.

Now. The horizontal rule - is that a bronze metal clown's shoe??

Being a fan of Jeremy's work I must say I like it, but I think the interior navigation needs to have more contrast. It was a little hard to read on the chosen background color.

Looks good to me. The home page feels a little cramped, looks like they are trying to stuff a lot of info into a small space. Maybe a fluid or elastic design would have suited better. But it's not a big issue.

I can't see why this one is in CSS Beauty to be honest, it feels very disorganized. Lots of different font styles, colors, and types.. You can't pick out a true message or header at first look, a clue that the layout isn't working as well as it could.

A quick question that Matt raised. Why do Home Pages need to be so cramped and squashy?

I like features/ parts of it like the tree shadow line go past the 'info container' and the main navigation system but apart from that it does not really do much for me personally.
