Welcome wesbos to the forum! I really like your t-shirt designs, very impressive.

hey wesbos, I don't really have the time right now to give your site a proper critique, but as far as the navigation goes, your front page had me a little lost.

I kept wanting to click on the text that said "click here for examples" and it took me a second to realize that the links were underneath that. Just FYI.

Your portfolio is pretty nifty, but I have some suggestions for your website. Morea is right about being lost about the "Click here for samples" problem; I had it to. Additionally, your e-mail address in the bottom right could stand having an e-mail link that would make it so people won't have to type it in. I'm usually not nitpicky about that, but given that it's a graphic it can't be copied and pasted either.

I wasn't entirely impressed with your website portfolio. I found them a bit generic, but I like where you're going with your personal site. I thought the pool one was the best of all of them and the rest rather pale in comparison. I do dig your t-shirt stuff, though. How did you get into that?

I found these particularly inventive: http://wesbos.com/media/10.jpg | http://wesbos.com/media/15.jpg | http://wesbos.com/media/17.jpg

haha yeah sorry i ment "anyone" but in a fit of anger (not really) didnt fix it.

Thanks for the comments, the sites i did are a little out dated and ive got fresh stuff coming up. As for my site i know its not the best but i have 2 hours to throw somthing together, im pretty busy but when people come to my site i dont want them to see my old outdated portfolio. But yeah thanks alot

how did i get into it? a year or so ago i did some CD art for my freinds band, it was pretty bad but everyone said it was awesome, it then spurred me on to do a few t-shirt for them. People started asking me to do websites and t-shirts for them. Its mostly all local bands that ask me, im sort of the "go-to" man to get sweet shirts designed for in my area. Im now doing CD-art, skateboard decks, and all kinds of stuff, Having a blast and making some nice cash while im at it.

Thanks again for the comments, its encouraging and i will post more once i get some.

I know, but i just thought it was funny how being off by one key almost put it to pantone.
