Although I can't say I remember the old look...

Hey, I like it!

Jeff, I like it a lot. Very clean, simple, and to the point. Voice over illustrator - that's a great descriptive phrase. I love it. The top line stands out to me, "The voice of the modern generation - Hip, young and exciting!" and not in a good way. Two things bug me. 1. The exclamation point. I don't know why but I don't like it. 2. Placement: It seems weird sitting there at the top of the page all by itself. But I do like the idea of a brief description high on the page.

i, too, like its clean simplicity, and gave it only a once over to look at it.
i saw the utah area code at the bottom, and ... this is a teeny thing ... when one clicks on chinyereinternational, it links to the site. good. when one clicks on sam, that's one link to the email, and when one clicks on chinyere, that's another link to same email.

no big. but i think you're a detail guy, right?

I'm not seeing that, Diane. Which browser are you using, so I can test it?

Yeppir, did the same for me... Looked at your page code and it contains two email links; one for Chinyere, and one for Sam.

Didn't know they even existed... and in my back yard, no less.... must be a Utah thing.

Like the look. Very straight forward. Maybe nitpicking but "the in-crowd" feels a litle dated....

I like the simplicity and cleanliness.

When I open the page, everything below your Corporate Narration demo is below the fold (I have to scroll down to see it). I think that if you could organize it or tighten it up in such a way that it all fits on a single page with no scroll bar, I'd like it better.

Just my $ .02 and thats about what it's worth.

alrighty, I've taken the feedback from everyone and incorporated a lot of it. If you'd be so kind as to look once more, I'd appreciate it. Thanks so much guys!

More better. Just askin', but why repeat the "hip, young voice" line? (I mean, you aren't that hip..are you?). Still think the name could be larger. Think I'd center all the copy that's right above the demos, and I'd reduce the width of the "Jeffrey offers a contemporary..." line for an easier read. And, along Joe's line of thinking, I don't see why you couldn't display the page in one screen shot (I have to scroll down to see the representation section). Voice on!

Jeff,
I like it a lot! Very clean and concise.

For those that didn't know what it looked like before, you can use the Wayback Machine to see it.

the repeating hip line will be yanked this evening. At first I had it in text for SEO reasons, but that's probably not necessary.
