Wow, well done. Great prize and great site. I'd be surprised if there is a better entry. I would change some of the fonts and text a bit and remove the noise off the background wink

I'm trying to go for a pro look, but incorporate some swish design into it aswell, hence some noise in the BG, some fukny logo lol, and yeah, but I will pobably change fonts and clean it up a bit, cheers for the input guys.

Your going to win i know it happy

Well I don't know if this is intentional or not but the "p" in prospectus appears lower case while all the other headings start with uppercase letters. For consistency sake you may want to upper case that as well.

Also, on the right side below "developing destinies", the the arrows that point left and right...it would be nice, as someone using the site, to know all the things I'm switching to with those arrows.

Everything else is pretty much amazing, I wish my school's web page looked like that. Nice Job smile

Change the font, looks very unsmoothed - or is it just the OS you're using?

Oh cheers dude, I totally missed that xD Thanks ALOT! happy

Oh the font smoothing, could be, I'm on Photoshop on XP using simple 'ol tahoma, I use no-aliasing. Since I see loads of website previews using this text layout, I just follow lol, but when I get a live preview working, I'll get a cleartype preview up! happy

I just noticed, it would be better on the nav header is the order was: Home News Mail Sitemap wink

i LOVE everything about it EXCEPT the red. it clashes with the whole blue, and i know, i know red and blue are complimentary colours but they're not visually pleasing like that. That harsh gradient and the red looks unprofessional and not clean at all. Other than that, i suggest not putting sound in the bg because it takes longer to load the web page and secondly, i also think that you would bode well buying yourself a MacBook case some time soon wink

Could i suggest rounding the edges of the top nav bar maybe just the Left side confused
