    I think it's a very effective site and introduces your company and past work, very well. I would suggest two quick things however.

    1. Have someone vectorize your company logo, if you don't already have it done. Your logo is your brand, your identity. It should not be a low-resolution home made image. I know this could affect the gradient fill of the sun rays, but it can still be accomplished in flattened/still images like the one on your site, but can also be used for vinyl graphics for vehicles and signs, as well as embroidery for shirts, hats, etc. The crispness of it once it's vectorized, will make it pop more.

    2. Shift the phone number up, next to the address, and reduce the overall height of the 3 pictures below the links bar. You may want to add a couple more pictures to fill the width of the page, but the point is to shrink the overall height of that segment. This will help bring the important content, up to front and center on all of your pages throughout the site.

    I hope this makes sense, and proves helpful.

    Yeah what he said, overall looks good, not too complicated.

    No model shots of your ugly mug kissing little babies in the "About" sections ?

    Many things but number 1 - drop the serifed font.

    There is a reason why every piece of software on your computer uses san-serif, open and 'simple' fonts. Thousands of studies have shown them to be easier to read and simpler to understand. Move to something arial looking. Use CSS if you need to.

    More later.

    I agree with HBAR about the pics. I'd say slow down the speed they change, too. Maybe by half or so. But it looks great!

    I'm going to ressurrect an old thread as I thought this would be the best place for this comment.

    I contacted Richard for a shower enclosure on our bathroom remodel having seen this thread a long time ago. He came out and measured and a couple of weeks later had two of his guys do the install. I have to say, I am VERY PLEASED with the quality, craftmanship, price and professionalism of Richard and his staff. My wife LOVES her new bathroom and the new glass!

    If you need glass for a new shower, please consider Richard! Check out the website!

    Thanks again Richard!

    This is sweet. Site looks good too, can you make it so when you click on the gallery it opens it in the same window instead of a new tab?
