on 29th Aug 2011 and said:Hello! I think this is a great idea you have here--its not something I've seen before and I could see demand for it. From the way you present your product, it seems of professional quality, so that's great.
Site Design
The first thing that I see is the huge logo and title. I think you could definitely make this smaller. Right now it's about 200 pixels tall. Sizing it down to 150-180 pixels would probably give it a cleaner, more aesthetic feel.
I must say I don't like the logo very much. In my opinion, the simpler the logo, the more easier it is to recognize and the more successful it is. Generally I avoid drop shadows and gradients in logos like the plague. Here are some more professional looking logos. See how simple they are? None of them use more than two colors (white doesn't count).You'll also notice that the logos subtly provide information about the company. Your logo only gives me the initials, which could stand for anything. This certainly isn't the most important aspect of your business, but you might want to consider changing you logo nonetheless.
I noticed the color scheme of your site doesn't jive with the logo. The site has greys, browns, and a sort of teal blue color, which is different from the baby blue of the logo. Keep the coordination of color in mind if you do change your logo, and if you don't, perhaps change some of the colors around the rest of the site to match it.
You've done a pretty good job with the website layout. On the home page, the Contact Us is squished up against the Categories section, so you might want to add a <br> there.
On the homepage when you click on a picture you get a huuuuuggeeee version of the picture. I don't think a larger view of the picture is even necessary--they're big enough as they are.
You might want to add some more padding around the pictures though, because the text is almost right up against them.On the homepage, you say "What is a legacy video?" before even mentioning them. If you are going to leave that snippet on the homepage, you might want to change your first intro blurb to include something about legacy videos so it doesn't just pop out of the blue. Also, I think a brief explanation would be better here, rather than the extended story-description that you have on the Legacy Video page.
Navigation--you should consider changing the order of these links. The Denton Bible Story isn't as core to your business as your Services or About Us section. I think it would fit better under a "Projects" section, which could include other examples of your finished works for people to peruse.
I found the About Us link a little misleading. I thought it was going to tell me more about your company, rather than about yourselves. Learning about NGVP is my priority when I visit the website for the first time, so consider putting Services or a "what we do" sort of page first in the navigation bar.
On the services page, you might want to add some more information. How long the videos generally run, perhaps.Overall I think you've got a great business going. The suggestions I've given you are mostly minor, but I hope they're helpful.

Interesting name, website is slightly easy for me to remember. The layout seems kind of boring, but that's just me - I prefer things that POP! out.Content -
I like the blog being on the first page. Then again, I like blogs being on the first page of almost all of the websites I visit. It lists the events and updates and things, and gives the visitor an idea of what they are visiting.I just realized you're from Denton, TX? Awesome. :)
About -
Where it says "Tyler’s part in producing video biographies will be:" and then lists his part in the production does not match up with "Adam's part will be:". Also, if you have already created the website and gotten it up and running, maybe it could be worded a bit differently?Services -
Why not list your packages, so that way visitors can kind of get an idea? Also, it's always a good idea to publish a few examples of what all you can do, or have done, so that possible customers will have a clue of what they should expect. :)Overall -
I think it is good. It seems like you are just getting started on the site. :) I like the idea, though. :)Using MSIE on Windows | Report This?
