page for competition

Hi friends,

heh, while I do review for others i forgot about myself. Actually to late, just more curious about your opinion. I decide to participate into one competition. In a nutsell the rules was like this:
- web site with 5 pages, not profit, about country, web design, whatever...
- less then 2 MB
- no serverside scripting such as php asp etc...  (js is ok, of coz)

my work is this one:

thank you for your time, mates!

don't like the banner inside the water and also the main navigation looks strange

Actually the titles in the water would look nice and i haven't seen it before. New is good. But i agree about the nav menu - it's like you try to hide a fat mama in the dark - make it smaller, more adreeable with the rest of the layout. Or maybe use a side menu instead. Sliding maybe. Without that dark menu above, the titles in the water will look better .

For the rest, nice work.

thank you for your time, mates!
Have to agree. I trying to impress jury with my photoshop and png transparency skills. Put a lot of work for this silly buttons and yea.. looks somehow out of all page design.

about page title in the water.. I choose this color because of logo at the top right corner. This logo must be there (competiton rules) and I tryed to use same colors for title. blue/red.

Again, thank you for your time and comments. Have to put more attention for site design, seems with code, scripts, css positioning no probs at all.

heh, just latest news... just got a call, my site has first place.
Thank you for support!

Nice. Congrats

I would agree with Olaf and Samiotis that the navigation and logo inside the picture don't blend nicely

but congratulations anyway for the first place

I agreed with the other comments initially, but then I noticed the option to change the style of the page.

I think the "Day" style is the best.

The "watery" area is shrunk a little bit - it looks better that way than the large area of water on the normal style.  The navigation also pops more with the lighter background.

It addresses some of the issues in the "Basic" style, and looks very good on the whole.  Although the header still seems kind of big to me - maybe crop off part of the sky?
