Looks pretty good, except for the fact that the top and the bottom look a little cramped.. try adding a white space between the bottom nav bar and the copyright statement. The top could probably also use a couple of page breaks as well. Keep up the good work.

1) The logo really doesn't remind me of a webmaster site, but maybe that's because it's original. I like it actually. Though it could be spiced up a bit more. Maybe add a symbol or something that makes you think of 'webmaster.'
2) On the WebDevNetwork bar you need to add some type of bullet or something to seperate the different links. It's all jumbled right now.
The rest is clean or organized. I think you just need to work on the content of the site now. Add as much quality stuff as you can. I'd say it's an improvement over the last design...

The overall design is quite good actually. But the logo is a little bit plain. And also, doesn't green reminds people of money?

Weird Jackchen - now that you pointed that out these sites really are making me think "money"... even though our money here isn't all green.
More unique than your last one, that's for sure. Have you tried doing the logo in the same font as the graphic headers? That would make it look even better. A "faux bold" in photoshop might make it thick enough for the effect.
The drop shadows on the graphic headers are a problem. Firstly, it's too big and secondly, it's really strange how the line has a shadow but the circle part doesn't. Those are also a little too close to the content below them.
The navigation menu is kind of fading away in there. It doesn't stand out enough. Maybe white text on a green background?
There's a problem on the "free scripts" page - the table isn't lining up like it does on the other pages (right side column double the width), same with the "tutorials" page, and "webdevtimes" and "feedback". Weird...

It hink its ok, but the logo, i donno why, but i think it needs to be changed, i dont think it looks right, maybe making the logo in the white compleatly instead of half and half...
I dont think that you need two platnum personals' ads there, if you do thought, make them the same size, so it will look better.

I like the site design. Very straightforward.
If I were to change one thing though, I think I would have to change the logo. Not that it's bad, it just doesn't really grab me and capture my attention.
But otherwise, good job...

Same here: I'd change the logo a bit, making it more 'webmaster-like'. Also those images with 'what's cool' and so are a little big on my screen, maybe they could get a little smaller.
It's a good, neat design and I thought that the content is pretty good too. Good job!
