A little bit too much lighting and glowing effects? Otherwise great, I like it!
Hah, just realized I focused on all the lighting effects for my screenshot previews! I swear those are the only ones!
glow baby glow!
hello jesus! haha. no just kidding. looks great!
beauty!
@Darfuria: I guess it’s hard to see the navigation in the top screenshot. It’s basically going to be a dynamic popout menu similar to that on the following site: http://www.firetrust.com/en/blog/chris/domain-name-scams?page=12
I hope you’ll think about it twice because I find the present design to be more clean and “fresh” than the one presented in this post.
Photoshop’s filters and effects should be “almost completely” banned by web design IMHO; most of time they turn out to be a source of disasters rather than a useful resource.
@Riccardo Thanks for your input. To be honest, we’ve stripped out most of the “effects”, saving basic lighting for points of focus that we found important. The new design is fairly simple and clean in nature.
wow Awesome design… I am waiting for this Design..
Looks very nice guys, I love the lighting effects myself.
Although, I am still a fan of the crisp white site. Either way, it’s very well done though. Props

Beautiful design, really attracts me to your site (didn’t ever see the original design)
The deciding factor (besides price) for my signing up with this* was because I fell in love with the current design. That, and your very human copywriting
Those screens look pretty trendy…and I’m not entirely sure it’s good. That said, I’m looking forward to seeing how it all turns out!
Looking good guys – the only thing I’m unsure about is the navigation bar, but that’s probably down to not being able to see the full layout.
