Make fonts larger, and the differences between headings and body text larger. I also think your heading text could use a touch more contrast. 2. I'd lose the blue glow round the top image (currently a cat). I'd also be tempted to use some method of grouping the two top images into one unit, while softening the boundary with the main content below. You should keep the logo though (I like it), and I think the cat image is fine too. 3. I like the light blue nav bar, but I do think there's a bit too much blue in the page. Maybe change the left and right margin columns to white, or a very subtle off white. That would turn down the blue a bit, without taking the focus away from the main content. Hi Gary,
