buy some hosting, the advertising is absolutely terrible and just makes you look like an amateur.The site itself isn't even anywhere near complete?

I'd buy some webspace. WITHOUT banners. Hate that, your trying to look professional, yet it looks the other. Don't like type...blah, blah blah......

[note to self: must not reply during bad working day]

Does anyone work in print anymore......

The design is desperately old and tired. Try something more modern.
The code is imageready tables. Learn xhtml.
The image quality is horribly poor. Optimise them and size them so that they are readable/viewable.
The content is no-existant. Use you keyboard.
Get some proper hosting. Use your wallet.

Me! Brings me to a point I was going to make.

Why is it that to be a 'print designer' it is understood you have some amount of skill.

There seems to be a hell of a lot more shit web designers than print designers.

Are these people all 15 year olds working in their bedrooms? Dont think so, people are graduating from multimedia courses and setting up businesses and creating utter nonsence!
