The website I'm making
Ok, so I need a new color for the background (customer hates the current one and I think shes full of crap)
Besides that, if there is anything else you guys could think to change input would be AWESOME!

Oh and the portfolio section isn't up yet, I just copied the services page.

you're telling me, try looking up ANY landscaping site and they look like CRAP.

There is a reason for that, most landscapers don't have much knowledge of what is and what isn't a good website, and you could argue that many don't even need a website.

Oh I know, its really the fact that my client is complaing about just that, nothing she knows about. Shes telling me that she knows that the bg color goes well with the pallete, but she doesn't like it so she wants a different one. :roll: I've tried like 40 different combinations, so I finally just put it back on her.

IMO, please please lower the font size of the banner. It's fvcking huge.

Pretty good site. However I would use CSS for the text, and later on I would convert the tables to CSS DIVs and make it 100% XHTML Compatible.

Unless you have no other choice, I would use text for the links as well. Yeah it looks less elegant, but sometimes simpler is better.

Cut that javascript, or whatever function off that's changing the color of when you select text, because people like to do whatever they want with text.

Like Snyder said, put some border/shading on the outsides...

That's just my 2 cents. But all in all, good site :thumbsup:
 
The leaves on the side have a big chunk missing from them, on bottom (and the top is semi cutt off and you can see the tip of the leaf by "home")
 
I'd say get rid of the leaves on the hover link images and instead either change the text color or put a light green border around the text.
