Hey guys,

I'm working on a new portfolio for my current employee, and chose to code it all in CSS rather than DotNetNuke, even though my boss was leaning toward that. The site is getting close to being done, just need to throw in some copy related to each piece of work, change the main image on a couple pages (the pencil one is repeated) and add the New Media page, the link isn't broken don't worry.

Anyways, I'd love to hear what some of you fellow web designers think - give me your opinion on usability, overal visual appeal, and what ever else you deem appropriate.

Thanks,

Carson

The inner-shadow borders are ok, but in some cases (home page, and portfolio pages) they compete with each other. There is a jarring, stair-step effect on the left site. I think it would help if the borders aligned with each other horizontally. Maybe consider not using borders on every image.

Unapproved?

LOL. Is Adobe a new sponsor?
For some reason a post of mine entered into the Adobe forum says it's unapproved.
I'll probably get nuked if there is ever a Pantone forum...

I'd look into combining GREP with variable data input. Not sure you can make it work but it might be easier to blind format the junk you get into something that works pretty well in InDesign.

Commented to InDesign Halp!

Well, InDesign can't think on its own, somehow knowing what text to format with a given character style; UNLESS it's always the same text, or there are certain recurring character pattern-hooks; in which...
