top banner is kind of smalll, color scheme is allright but a little to much purple,
layout is fairly simple and should be easy but its not completed so i can't tell,

Thank you for the honesty. I'm working on not being so creative...It's hard.
What I mean when I say that is; I've been looking at tutorials for web design as well as website layout and I'm seeing a lot of boring, same style, designs. When I create websites I like to see a lot of creativity and eyecatching colors . I think it enhances the content on the site. Anyway, Thank You!
Sincerely
Jessica

Just go to a major design site, and click on affiliates.
That takes you places you wouldnt believe.

Color is a very tricky thing to deal with. Color on the web is ten times trickier. I wouldn't just throw in a bunch of purple to be original. Color has a lot of meaning. Too much of one color is overwhelming, no matter what color it is. You're going to have a very hard time trying to make a site that is original, because just about everthing has already been done. There's a reason why a ton of sites have a vertical navigation bar aligned to one side of the page. It works, and people are used to it. Which I agree with you is kind of boring, but hey, like I said it works well.
Keep the spirit though. It's always good to have people who won't conform.

ive been teaching in web design basics for a while
and the first thing i try to impose in the minds of my students is this;
just because something looks good by itself that doesnt mean you should use it
i mean gradients are pretty cool right?
but that doesnt mean it will make an image better
i say get rid of the gradient
and focus more on the orderliness of the template
