No. 1 turnoff - the green background (yuk!).
Garish logo - too much contrast red/blue.
Fuzzy/garish nav buttons - prefer to see them cleaner/crisper and a
bit 'quieter'.
Would prefer not to see text in that orange-red colour.
All caps text is ugly especially mixed with with lower case.
Site loads fast and it's easy to find the information but the whole
site needs a more modern look. Very subjective but to me it feels
cramped, needs to be more spacious.
