@Addison: Double line of text is needed due to the length of most of the link names and the quantity of items needed to be listed. It really is my only solution at this point.
@Gerardo: Thx! Hmm, that might be an option worth exploring. Will have to resolve to a smaller grid but I will play around to see if I can make it work. Thanks!
Josh this looks good. I like the subtle pattern in the background. The button is amazing, the only thing I suggest is either making HBA MEMBER Bold or just APPLY NOW beacuse it seems the 3 different weights are playing tricks with my eyes. Overall this is a beautiful design.
Hey Josh, couldn't you rotate [even if its a few degrees] the grid in the background to form diamonds? That way it breaks up the visual link between the nav lines, and the bg. Might not work for this design, but I thought I would bring it up.

Nice and clear. Looks like medical or insurance?
Only thing that bugs me a bit is the lines in the nav clash with the lines in the background grid.

@Chris: I completely agree. It looks even worse in full lol. Trying to find a better solution :)

Great color palette.
Seems odd that there is a double line of text in navigation, especially for the first tab.
Also, is that Gotham for the type in the button, but helvetica for the rest?

Late night winner!
What if you make all Nav Buttons fixed width by two squares and snap it to the grid?

It may be my eyes but does the text inside the button look to be a few pixels too low?

I love the button, but I think the nav bar is too plain. Have you tried adding any emboss or some sort of hard border?
