Looks very good, top job.
May I ask what Rapid Weaver Theme and what host are you using?
My only recommendation is to add more information about your products. I.e. sell your web broswer better, look at the major browsers for example

2/3 of the screen real estate is used to display the menu and essentially the title... only the bottom third has actual "useful" information.
It looks good, but I'm not sure if I like it for that sole reason.

I like the colors and simple layout. Agree with the above poster about how much real estate you have dedicated to the logo and nav.
Also, it seemed like it took me too many clicks to get anywhere.

Thanks for the comments! the theme is called PosterJay and is free. I will be removing the products section and just have the rapidwaever themes and tominated browser (i had it as a menu for another theme). I like the design of having a big logo and nav, it is supposed to look a bit like a poster.
If i where you i wouldnt use a premade (oh well, not premade but its not good to alter an existing tutorial made logo as your main logo) logo if you planning on being serious with your products.
Apart from that it looks good.

looks great to me! i posted some comments on there for you on your blog. good luck with the software!
it wasn't a tutorial. i made it from scratch.
Pretty close eh?

Or did u make the tutorial itself? Or did the one who made the tutorial rip you off?

The first thing that struck me is that it resized my browser window to fill my screen. I hate this. It's bad enough if it's some fancy flash design site that has to be viewed at 1024x768, but for a software site there's no need to fill my screen with it. I usually close sites that do things like straight off.
I have never seen that tutorial. I don't really mind if people see my stats. I don't want to change the rapidweaver theme (i really dig it). I'll see if i can make it not resize the window, or did you have to to make it fit?

No, I usually have my browser window at roughly 800x600, and when I clicked on the link the new window filled my screen automatically. I think it's fairly easy to switch off though.
