Id love any feedback you have regarding the sites layout and functionality.
Thanks in advance.

Overall, I like it. It is clean and flows well. I do have an issue with the footer. It is a bit blurry and hard to read.
One thing you might consider doing is adding a background to the elements with the text. I say this because the footer and header come out of nowhere. So, adding a transition that gives the viewer something to make those movements to the header and footer would help.

yeah
I have been toying with the background idea. I dont like it being completely black. Was thinking about having those small repeating rows of dots as the back maybe faded a little .. not sure.
and yeah the footer needs sorting for sure
thanks
more feedback plse! lol

Looking at it on a FF3 and MAc and have some alignment issues . the words welcome and services do not line up correctly. I would think they should but just check that.
also you page has a lot of errors when you go to validate it. Not sure if you want to fix it or not. But I would as it shows that you can make a valid page and you get to put the w3c logos on you page. CSS has one error as well.
It looks decent. I am all for very simple portfolio pages. I think its better to not be flashy in your page design so as to leave the wow factor to your pieces

cheers steve
I wil look into that thanks. Totally didn t notice that alignment issue.. that was a sneaky extra column.
Yeah was going to get round to fixing the errors. lol. That might be a slightyl ongoing project. What did you use to highlight the errors in the code?
You are right. Keep the design of the site simple, let the work do the talking. I did spend ages in Flash but in the end i thought it be best to keep it simple and concise with the work hitting the viewer easily and with impact, not getting lost in unclean design or complicated distracting flash

I validated your stuff through w3schoos

YOu can validate a bunch of stuff. just punch in the website. Lower right columns have the links. If they all pass you can put a w3c tag for html and ccs validation.

I like it for the most part, but does all the text have to be so small?

yeah i have a small text fetish.. but yeah might look into that

i like your portfolio but would prefer to be able to scroll or click through to the next image rather than close and re open.
