WIP means hes still working on it, so hes not done, some people add the effects in later, my advice, is to finish it before showing
ya its too simple and the bg just kills it but its still a wip so cant tell untill the end try adding some boxes or somthing in the navigation area and change the bg or lower the opcity
The bg is drawing the attention away from the site. Lower the opacity so its very very light. And its very plain, just some boxes with a border, but since its a wip you are probably going to inprove that.
Nothing a tit couldn't do, two rounded rectangles, some text and an over extravegant pattern off deviant art
