Hi Marc,
I understand that you would like to reserve ad space on the banner accross
the site but the space can (and should be more efficiently utilised).
<IDEA>
I would suggest confining the jBoss logo and text to the top-left corner of
the page just above the menu that includes "Download", "Product Suite", etc.
The width of the logo/text should be the same as the menu. The space to the
right of the menu (above the framed main page content) can then be used for
adverts. You could include a dummy gif advert for the jBoss family of
products for the moment so t doesn't look empty.

| |Looks nicer.
| |
| |A couple of suggestions though, for when you have got any major
| |problems sorted:
| |
| |1) Turn up the contrast on the second-level menu items. Black on
| |grey-green is
| |not great. E.g use a bold font, white/yellow foreground, or
| |change background colour.
| |
| |2) Loose the spec at the top of the page. It is devoid of content
| |and detracts from
| |the overall design. (Or is this perhaps a placeholder for ads -
| |in which case
| |ignore this comment.
