Layouts for websites/portals

As was going ahead to create our company's intranet. First challenge it must not look or feel like websites and it must be JAZZY, FRESH & INVITING.

So decided to go ahead with floral background and information in transparent circles (does anyone know the best approach to fix PNG transparency issue in IE5.5 & IE 6.0).

So started creating but the time is also crucial as I have got only 6 hours to prepare the final layout and get it approved. Looking to the situation the photoshop premade brushes came to rescue. Thanks to "hawksmont Universe :)".

The second challenge was to setup/match a nice script(font) for the intranet space. And for this I found a nice website from where one can download fonts for free http://www.acidfonts.com.

The biggest challenge is to make sure the layout can be applied in WSS 3.0.

Will add more to this post as I will progress....

The end output came good, but needs a lil finishing ...
