    The layout is pritty nice and simple although I think in some places (navigation bar) you should play around with the gradients a little more and try and spice it up. I find adding some gradient layers over the top can make a big difference, then merge it once your happy with it.

    I like the sub-content boxes but i'm not sure the main introduction one, it doesn't look as proffesional, I dunno, i'm just not to sure about it. I think you need to use another colour because in some parts where there are large areas of grey the template is a little dull.

    I generally do like it though, good work.

    Actually, when I get some time, I might do a tutorial on gradients. I was thinking about it not long ago. ;)

    that looks great. The only thing that I don't really like about it is the little search thing on the right of the banner. =/
