Why not? It's decent.

Remove the form stling for useability reasons, and make the text on th tabs darker I would say.

These usability reasons.


I disagree, though with some styles you just have to say no. Maybe I should write an article on gracefully styling form buttons and see what you guys have to say about it? I don't know why you should sacrifice styling form elements completely in aid of "usability".

At the end of the day, form styling does rely a lot on how your browser and operating system dictates it. However, the user will be used to whatever forms look like in his or her browser and native OS, so it isn't something to lose too much sleep about.

Alex, go ahead and sell it!

Yeah go for it!

I've just started coding it, though it's going slow (inexperience with css) and i never seem to have time to work on it, but i will get it done.

I think it looks excellent, it's a very clean looking layout.

I like it but in order for those boxes containing plans to be fully managable won't they have to be in text instead of images - using some opacity in CSS? How cross-browser compatible is opacity? I never use it so I'm not sure

apart from that I like it but the navigation text is a little too subtle, I would bolden it up a bit by making them a tad darker

Looks nice.

But the Member Login "GO" button goes outside the box a little in Firefox, and maybe it could be cool with some hover effect at those tabs in the top.

And the £4 and £6 images seems to be lower quality than the £2 image. :P
