Just created a microbrand (product) version of our site for some vertical marketing. Had to get it up pretty quick, so please ignore the (Ahem.. use of tables)- Busy on re-writing in CSS.

C and C on the general look and feel, navigation, layout and presentation.. Is it to the point, can you understand at a glance what the product is? Is it clear?

Love to hear. Linky (http://www.mailgloo.com/mailglooevent/)

Hi..I think your website looks really nice although it gives me the impression it has something to do with Skype.

I think it looks great. I do however think that there's too much information on the first page that could've been split into several pages. Too much scrolling.

A couple of reasons.

this is one of 5 'Sections' / products that fall under the main site ( link) (http://www.mailgloo.com/mailglooMarketing/site/MAIGLOOTEMPLATE.html)

This page has everything in one for better SEO.

But perhaps later a few subpages added to the right column when site grows up a bit.

Thanks for your comments, will def look at splitting it.

Hmm, just checked out skype and can see what you mean, although it may just be the same blue colour strip? not sure.. hope its different enough to not be a skype clone, although this is the forst time I have put them side by side and seen some similarities.

What typeface is that (the rounded sanserif)? Besides the kerning, it's pretty damn fun.

I was a little disappointed to see a lighter grey used on the hover over the "clients who love us" I was hoping to see and orange, blue, or darker grey. Just a thought.

I noticed that too. I was expecting the emblems to regain their color, but instead they grayed out. I want color!

Damn you all. LOL - the logos will rollover to colour versions when I get chance to scratch my ear.
P.s - Half dog: font is VAG rounded - and another close one is 'Howies funhouse'

:0

Thanks all -- right, back to work.

Maybe I just have an affinity for orange, but the orange flavors on the Virgin Money Turns Two is freaking Brilliant.

Overall, I think it's awesome, nice work :beer:

I do think that the coverflow could use some polishing, though, it feels pretty rough. Are those images cached as bitmapData/smoothed? They seem pretty shaky. Also the way the images just appear/disappear when they're coming in and going out is kind of harsh... If you could work in a quick fade in/fade out or soemthing, I think it would help it a bunch.

Looks nice on my phone. Flash isn't there, if course, but I like it. I prefer all of the relevant info on the home page, by the way. :)
