Quite nice.
I think that it *fits* you better.

I really like it, it looks classy.
I only have one thing about it I don't like, but it's really easy to change.
You've got a drop shadow going on around it which is fine, but the drop shadow doesn't look very good. Especially near the bottom, where it's this hideous line. It really detracts (in my opinion) from the rest of a really nice layout.
I'd suggest fixing the drop shadow, then I'll have nothing but nice things to say about the page.

Greg & sunshine,
Thank you for your comments. RE the drop shadow. I found images for this. They were darker, so I made them lighter. Should I make them darker again. You know, I am very bad in graphic making.
Should they be as the one I have here. Namely, this is a site I've been working on now.
Thanx, ejb
That's got the same problem. The sides aren't too bad on that example, but the bottom still looks kind of messy.
D'you know, I think maybe you should just lose the drop shadows altogether.
If you'd rather not have a plain white background, you might want to try out some of these really nice and free seamless background tiles. I noticed a couple there that would look nice/match your look.

But, that's all up to you. /smile.gif" style="vertical-align:middle" emoid=":)" border="0" alt="smile.gif" />
You should actually redo those shadows. Cut the originals, then re-do the shadow, giving it less depth, and a wee bit lighter...
see this one
EXAMPLE
but you could give the shadow an overhead angle, the example has an angle from
the top left.
Thanx sunshine & pxlblitz!
I checked the site Squidfingers. Looks nice.
RE redoing the shadows, I am affraid I don't know how to do it. I might stick to the previously mentioned site to find something there.
Thanx, ejb
Hi all!
I did some changes to those shadows. They are darker. I also cut one line at the bottom, so now that black line is not seen any more. Now everything looks very different.
What do you think of it?

Thank you all for your replies. I am moving now these test files from the server and going back to work. Will inform you when things are done.

Dear Webmasters,
First I have to say here I am with a new name. Namely, I wanted to change my profile info and I messed up, so I ended up with a new name.
My present site is here. I am not very happy with it, so for next year I would like to do something different. Here is what I did so far: link1 (homepage), link2 (index page for sections), link3 (page for texts), link4 (example of an existing text in new version).
If you have time, could you, please, check and let me know how you find all this!?
Thanx and God bless!!
