I can hardly see the actual layout due to watermarking. That watermark just fucks with my eyes.

Its a dark web hosting template. That is about as unprofessional as it can come (in my eyes though) if a web host actually used it. Black is just terrible for a background.

I like the overall flow though of the layout. Maybe make the width a bit more for the plans so there is not as much empty space. Lighten up the background and have everything blend into it. more.

yeah please remove the watermark or put a little watermark so that it can easily view by members.

well if "Lifetalk" going to open service called "LulzServer" or "LulzDedi" or atleast "LulzHosting" he can use this theme it suits him

example: www.lulzimg.com same as your skin + fonts haha

anyways kool

It looks like the background would look good Blue shade.

If the theme was 'Dark Hosting' it went wrong somewhere.

The reason behind Dark Color might be your Brand name? "Dark Hosting"? and

• why not you use single wrapper to hold all objects, rather "Header, Plans, Content and Footer
• in Header: why not you take logo up, and navigation under it
• Quick Telephone/Email is important, as Support really matters in hosting business, so you can have space at right side for menu
• There are too many round templates, and in my personal view they are out of fashion, why not you make them square and play with borders?
