where the default photoshop nivi is?

Just don't have it at the bottom of your pages, users are going to get annoyed having to scroll down to get to your other pages.

Devlop a theme for you website besides ripping off Photoshop.

Looking at the photoshop stuff in the background is cluttering the screen. Fade it, or do something. It's not clickable so hide it So users don't want to click on it.

Your title looks comic booky, but the rest of the site is using serif fonts and straight lines with a LOT of grey and white. Add some colour. make subtitles the same font as your title. Make your links stand out more and move them to the top or to the side.

Unity is key.

I just thought the photoshop site that was a photoshop layout was an interesting idea that could be workable

It might be if you changed the photoshop menu and use it as your nav but if your going to do something like that change you windows look to the Vista or XP or whatever you have because the basic one makes it look boring and either stick to Windows or Mac, don't use both together.

Also the photoshop background acts like a giant header, and because the bottom of the site is all gray like the background I didn't know where to look for any content until like 3 mins ago.

Why don't you try starting over with a more conventional layout? And use your own photoshop stuff rather than copying the photoshop program layout.

yeah I get that part about the content and classic windows deal. Been wanting to throw a vista theme on something

See I was figuring the whole photoshop layout thing with the tabbed windows as links would be different

def. gotta change it up to be more functinal can't work on anything till later though

If you guys know of any sites to slap on there though let me know
