well i kinda like the concept better than the earlier one, but you gotta have some curves if you know what i mean...maybe it's better to let a proffesional do it...it doesn't cost all that much and great design goes a long way....( the choice of colours is also very importaint )

i really like domino records design and choice of colours...http://www.dominorecordco.com/site/

( notcie the unusual choice of fonts that gives it a very special look )

I personally like the design. I can't really help you with loading time because I have cable. The only thing I'd really change is make the band names bigger because you have to click them in the right spot to get it to work.

It looks a bit bloggish and is a bit blocky but on the plus side everything is easy to find.
I can`t stand sites they look pretty but it`s impossible to find anything.

Stick a few different colours & fonts in there & it`ll look good.
The grey background has got to go though.

i know about the band names.. will definately be sorting that.

Paying for a website may be easy but a waste of money when i can make something just as functional myself tbh. Id rather work hard on improving my own skills to make it look awesome than sit back and let someone else do it :P

hmm.. i do what to get away from grey but its hard to find other colours that look smart enough. what would you suggest?

Have pale colours it`s much easier to read things on it rather than on bright colours.

You could have like a sort of index file theme. For example each section on the main page has it`s own color theme. For example orange background for news , purple for bands , green for releases etc etc.And then when you click on those and you go to that section of the website you could base the pages in it in those colours , with a darker colour in the borders.

i like the background being black...but the boxes can't stay white right? cos it seems unfinished....other than that it's good...i still suggest using unconventional fonts to make it look a bit more special....
