Hey, just looking for some comments on a new design I whipped up!

I have some serious doubts about your professionalism, Neil -- there's not nearly enough coffee there to get the job done right. Apart from that, though, it looks good.

Better?

Now, that's more like it!

It looks good, layout-wise my only advise you create the boxes to take up 50% of the inside each (but leave a space in-between them that is the same as the left and right sides) obviously easily done with hard coded width, unless you like playing with percentages.

If I am not mistaken this is just done in Photoshop or a similar editor right? Most of the fuzziness and stuff should come out when you turn it into a real website. An example is the fuzzy 1px borders around the boxes and the corners (cheers for CSS3 border-radius) and the gradients.

I don't know what I'd do with the bottom. Maybe make the bottom box's headers stand out more from the actual text/links. Overall I like the colors, the style, the links, it's looking good!

Very nice formula for epic web themes there. I'm not too sure about the color scheme, though. Probably because it makes me think of green grass and blue skies, and we rarely get that combination here XD
