Ok, about time I showcased some of my designs. Since I seem to be lacking in that department.

My own site (soon to be updated, below are the final drafts)

The style is simple, yet pretty straight forward, no difficult navigation, no excessive eye-candy.

Actually a little eye-candy woukld be better but i like the idea of keeping it as simple as possible

I like it, but I think a little eye candy would make it much better. Even just a fading background or something. Purely my opinion of course.

remove visited sites. Such as on google, when it shows up in purple. imo it just looks bad when links are put together, and some are different colours that others.

I think you went a little overkill on the no eye candy. Plus white sites cause global warming. Or something. Quite nice really, just a little too plain.

If you had the content bit as a white background, with rounded edges, and then use that green in the logo (or another colour) as the main page background, it would look less plain. But that might ruin the effect you were going for.

It's 10 degrees here, is there a way to make the screen even whiter?

About the plainness: my focus is on the customers print/web case, not my own website. By using this color scheme/layout, people tend to focus more on the 'colored' section

I'd imagine it loads quickly which is a huge plus. I hate a site which loads a pile of different crappy glossy images. The font you used for your logo reminds me of the Memphis typeface, which is probably my favourite right now, so more <3 points for that.

Good job, I like it.

I like the crisp minimalist approach, it does not muddle your site with whatever you are showcasing.

If I had one criticism I'd say the white is hard on the eyes (but then again i just woke up).
