It's ok. I feel it lacks some of the visual punch of your earlier work though.

When I first loaded it on IE6 the side bar was set below the content. I refreshed it and it fixed itsself. Might be a n issue somewhere. There is alos a gap under the header in IE. ANother IE thing. The top nav top borders are ot there unless you rollover them.
The bottom borde of your sidebar doesn't line up. It extends some 2-3 px to the left. The links at the bottom are too dark to read. Maybe on roll over you could change the font color on the top links? Maybe inset the header a little more. Maybe even as much as the bottom links are. Right now it's like 1-2 px inside and looks sort of like a mistake rather than a design choice.
The side bar on the "contribute"below the content i i cant refresh it back up. So yeah it's an issue.
The bulleted list on the "locations" page needs a tad bit of work. In IE the bullets sit right on the dotted outline of the div. They look fine in FF though.
All in all I like the color scheme you have going on. The header graphic might be cool if the light from the light buld illuminated the words to the right of it some.

You score major brownie points with me dude. I think it is your best work so far and I only see a couple things. But yes, I love it. Very unique logo and I love the green shades background. It looks very professional. Only things I would change are the red links at the top. They are hard to read on my computor. I say make the letters bold and maybe try a grayish color, because the black is hard to read. Other than that, I noticed that the side nav bar still shows up below the content at first, I don't know why. This is IE by the way.
OVERALL: VERY nice job!! Definatly your best yet! I like it a lot, never checked to see if it validated, but it looks great :thumbsup:

Nice nice, I like it a lot, I like this kind of layout.
One thing I don't like is the color above, the red things.

Nah man I do like the look of it. I was just pointing out flaws that I noticed. the color scheme works nice and the layout works. It seems more blog-ish than zine-ish to me, but seeing how your front page is a blog, that might be the way your going with it.
off the page topic:
your http://zro.redtv.org/ has a big typo on it. you have "protfolio" on your main links at the top.
On this page one graphical thing that bugs me (besides the others i mentioned). The side bar has the shadow on the left. Im good with that. problem lies here:
the header and footer by the shadows sit under the main text. The side bar sits under it as well given the left shadow but sits above the header and footer. It has no top or bottom shadow so i dont know if its supposed to below the header or the main text. if it's supposed to be undr the main and above the header it needs a shadow on th bottom as if the content was casting it. on the header the shadow cast by the main would be lighter than the shadow of the sidebar as the side bar is closer to the header stack wise. make sense?
let me try and illustarte this text wise:
from top down
_____________ < main content
_____________ < side bar
_____________< header and footer
by this the shadow cast on the headr and footer by the main would be lighter than that cast by the sidebar.

Hello,
Really great site, I like the CSS you have used :) . But at the bottom the text written with black doesn't looks good. Write it with white.
Thanks.
