Am I the only one that thinks this design is fabulous?  I really really 
like it.  It's clean, beautiful, and you can tell that once real 
information is in there, that it will be clear and the important stuff 
stands out.   It looks very professional, non-threatening, very 
welcoming. I like the simplicity and the colors, too...

One small grammar thing - coldfusion-driven applications, not coldfusion 
driven applications

:-)

Looking at what other people can do with photoshop, I am so so jealous 
that I have no design talent.
