I dont think ripping off the old one is an option, I think whats missing
here is actually a decent design. For a company thats trying to sell itself
on creativity, design and branding...the site falls very short of
communicating any expertise in its key disciplines.

I am sorry you got such a load a grief. Now about your new site, I am
looking on a G4 Mac.
1. BG colour
2. The bright light blue colour you have used is nasty and a colour which I
identify with bathroom catalogues, swimming pool shop flyers and cheapo
computer shops.
3. This kind of text (below) is not very business-like and it doesn't
actually mean anything to a customer:
'Circle-Square's core expertise is web development and design. With
experience of creative, visually impressive web *presences* to huge web
applications and everything in between.'
4. Can you quantify that you will 'ensure their web projects will be a
success'? you are on dangerous ground there if you can't (text below).
'Circle-Square has both the expertise and the desire to ensure that your web
projects will be more than a success.
5. You need to explain yourself a bit more than this (text below)
'Please click on the icons opposite to find out more about the kind of web
projects we have been working on over the last six months.'
What icons are you talking about? It's not an icon it's a screenshot
6. The navigation thing is not very intuitive
7. Your text only doc is Untitled
8. There are lots of spelling mistakes for example:
'Clients- Full Version
Circle-Square has recently worked with a number of very *prestigous*
clients'
In Hosting you say *STMP*, you talk about *guarentees* in Site Promotion. In
Marketing you say *...seperate thier* and you also need to play spot the
typo in Branding (below)
'Branding- Full Version
Achieving *succesful* branding is one of the biggest challenges facing the
modern *organistation*. Circle-Square offers a complete branding service.
From logo and *stationary* design to strategic marketing and online
advertising.'
I liked the design of the last site a lot more, can't you use some of the
elements or adapt the colour scheme/images/work along similar lines?
Regards
Carla
