fo mah boy.

Is there a reason I can't see anything you post?..

dunno.
Im ********* to tinypic so everything should be fine.
whats your web browser?

It looks very nice, nice blending, background theme, text, and lighting placement, as well as depth.

Only thing I see is, as you stated, it's a tad bright.

All-in-all...8.8/10...nice job.

im going to give away my 9/11 reference.
You can see on the right side a puff of smoke, and it starts directly in the middle of a building ( cant see it very well because of the brightness )_
The brightness also had to do with an explosion, cause as you would imagine if a plane hit a building it would explode.
So that was my little 9/11 reference

I see the reference, was GOING to say that the brightness added an explosion effect, which would suite the theme well. I just didn't put that in :P
