Will Pay For Web Design Help

[Studio8]

Yo yo,
So, my site, http://www.studio8.net looks like a piece of garbage. The people behind it are comedians and writers, not web designers. We're doing fairly well for ourselves in New Orleans and are catching some eyes, but we're somewhat embarassed about our web design.
We've been using Frontpage for 5 years and are trying to learn some Dreamweaver, but the task is too large for us. We would rather pay someone to do it right than us bust our ass for a month and get something shitty that will satisfy us for a couple of weeks.

I'm not asking for someone to design something new, just need help implementing the design that we already have created.

If anyone thinks they can help, please please email me to discuss more details.

Thanks.

I do web design. It looks fine. You may just want to move the menu to the other side. I would suggest looking locally for web design help and not over the Intarweb.

Funny thing, this site is run by a web designer that is always short of cash.

Eh, I think we sort of got our problem solved. Not completely, but this will have to do for now until we feel like spending money on it.

Check it out - http://www.studio8.net . Feedback would be cool.

Hey, dude, glad you figured it out. Couple more quick tips:

- Logo still has jpg mosquitos. You should clean it up and save it as a gif.

- The top menu should rest on the same base as the logo and should either look more or less like the logo to avoid clashing. Consider dropping the blue stroke and reducing the font size.

- Table bevels don't look good. Use a bold black line instead. Also consider giving all pictures a 1-pixel border like you have done with the Meet Lance image.

- Good to see the cyan text is gone, but you could still cut the # of font colors by half and be better off.

But this is definitely an improvement. Just keep in mind that every new element should answer to an established horizontal and/or vertical line.

You might want to consider posting a link to this thread in the art shit forum, maybe MLE or Helm will make some comments.

Thanks bro - I'll continue to tweek, although some of the things you said I don't have a clue about.

Use CSS, not tables.

that aim conversation with the 'under 2 minutes' thing was tragically unfunny ;<

I didn't think it was bad.
