  Old  Getting some opinions on my personal site.

I thought I would make a post here and see what you guys think of my personal website. The site has no real “purpose”, I am not using it to get clients so comments about how unprofessional it is aren’t needed.

Everything is up apart from the “extra” page. I only added that link as an “overflow” page of sorts. So if I ever wanted to add anything else to the site I could just stick it in there.

It’s got a really nice custom coded admin panel that controls pretty much all of the sites content. It’s a shame that you can’t review that!

I am looking forward to hearing your comments.

i'd put more spacing between the links and bump them up to the top. the first block of white doesn't serve much of a purpose.

It looks nice, those colours are being rinsed abit though I have seen them on so many personal blog/forum/sites in the last few days! Infact, I have a feeling this sort of simplistic/blog like style is going to be used to death by the end of the year! The tf thing is good though It's annoying that the image doesn't align with the title bit though.

Good design but it took me a while to find where the links where, maybe put them in a different colour except white

looks ok. I would make the white space by the menu the same color as the rest (could it be a error in how ie is displaying it?) and the menu text is a little big, i would change the font and take the size down a little. In webdesign, smaller is usually better. Big writing looks unprofessional.

Cheers!
