  Old  portfolio review ///

Hey its selfO the nOOb just wondering if you could please do a constructive critique. This is my online portfolio and its been up for about 2.5 years and undergone a few redesigns. Im a bit busy right now to do much with it, but a stockpile of usefull feedback would be much appreciated when I have a few minutes.

Thanks for your help.

The header is nice but lose the highlight it would look alot better without imo, you should change the font aswell times new roman is just too ugly. The black nav bar and footer dont really fit with the design and the white box looks like its just be thrown up last minute kinda thing, build on the design and you will have a very nice site there

sorry for sounding harsh im in a rush so can't really go into much detail atm, keep up the good work

Interesting design, but you might want to ease up on the Caps lock and find better ways of Highlighting specific items.
The header makes me think "Ooo a designer chick, hotness" but it turns out you are not a chick. :\

Thank for all the input guys and gals.

The site goes through a constant series of changes, layouts, etc.
Next time I'll try to include some of these suggestions.

novi //
thanks fer the input. I changed it a bit. You might disagree w/ the size but I have an affliction for small type. Thanks.

remix //
werd thanks.

x3knet //
again werd thanks

bazza //
please do go into some detail.
I would agree with you about the highlight ( i was stuck in the awful highlight phase for weeks.....)
font changed,
I like the navbar
and the white vomit is a page........I do understand this was easy to over look as they are not all white and square. jk lol

Picard //
quite interesting opinions you have.........but alas you have fallen victim to the very games we employee every time we "design". You have fallen into and proven the value of a very large portion of prople intrigued by a hot girl w/ skills. Im sorry I did not live up to your expectations.........but it's my portfolio
why would I have pics of me? Its a showcase of my werk sooo obviously Im gonna put the pretty faces right up front..right?

thanks fer all the input again
i gotta get to work now.................................

I don't have a problem with the fonts like other members have mentioned. I love the colours and the header, the vector drawing of the women is awesome! Did you do that?

I would lose the reflection on the menu and make the font slightly bigger. The footer looks slightly rushed, i would think about doing that again.

Looks great though!
