Definitely prefer it, personally I think it's much cleaner and easier on the eyes.
Looks nice and professional!
However, not convinced by the banner at the top of the site, don't think the lightning works very well, would look much better without it. Also the FMFormation title on the image is kinda disappearing a little at the edges. perhaps reducing the size of the font a little so it fit more neatly within the player would help? No offence meant, just a little bit of constructive criticism!
Oh, and one other little thing I've noticed, on the navigation menu under the Special Features section, one of the options is "Time Spend on FMF". Just a little spelling mistake, should be Spent not Spend.
But all in all it's looking really nice, KUTGW! |
