Homepage Research: New Orleans

Critique: The site looks very professional, mainly due to the header. Not having a background on the header really helps the white logo and type stand out; it's uniform with the rest of the page. The drop-shadow on the navigation is a nice touch, as is the slight color change on the navigation's hover. The info on the rest of the page is organized pretty well, but the colors and lack of separation makes it all feel cramped and blended. Adding a line between the two columns in the body could help a lot with this, or having a slight difference in background color - one a light gray while the other could remain white. On the footer I notice that the blue box behind the links is really off-center. I'd also change the color of the links in the footer to white instead of the sort of cyan blue the have right now. Overall, the site's pretty appealing, especially because of the deep blue background.
