Try using a satin or gradient effect on the thing just below the banner.. other than that, its really nice dude.
Looks good, A bit plain on the content part of it but as you said it's not finished, other than thaty it looks ok apart from teh white area at the top of the banner
lmfao Broken you noob. 1. He said it isn't done. 2. He said it is his first in like 5 months, not ever. Good start except the glossy effect looks wierd in the middle and the stroke on the thing above the nav is choppy.
I don't really like anything about it. The font is nasty. The techish like border on the banner is very ugly, and on my screen looks like it has a very bad stroke put on it. The shine has a gap where I can see you might have duplicated and flipped horizontally but never connected properly. Also with that techish border sort of thing you can see where the center of the template is, yet the link text is not ligned up with it to mach the center. You said it is not finished, so at least you can work on it more and correct those things. But right now it just doesnt look to great.
