Given the time it took to open the EVO site, I was expecting a Flash opening but didn't get one. This is where the graphic design truly comes into play. For some, the look may be clean and professional. For others it may be wild and wacky. Whatever look you choose, know that it's one of the first illustrations of your company's identity.
Color palette is a primary component of design.
I found the bright orange on the EVO site distracting. I do, however, think the text looks clean, and the page layout is easy to read. People rarely go to a Web site just to browse. They are looking for specific information, so make sure they find it. The speed at which a visitor is able to find what he or she wants plays a role in his or her impression of your company.
