Hmm - dunno if I should be doing this. I can hand out the criticism, but I can't cop it.

Ahhh - what the hell. The site is purely for personal glorification (aren't all personal sites?!), and a place to put my digi cam pix online for family & friends. Plus I'm currently knocking up my portfolio.

Be nice.

Thumbs up
Ello,


Dude not to worry man it looks really good, design is tight and i luv the setting change up.

It is an interesting contrast with the image background. On the site do you show how that was done ? if not a secret

And with a portfolio that long dude self glorification is expected brother

Ahhh - you're all very nice.

If you like the fading links - d/l the Javascript file that's included in the source. (fade.js)

The background images are random. Hit F5 to see a different background.

The whole site is templated - there's 2 templates atm. Use the drop-down top right to see the other one. (light/dark)

Thanks guys!

Hey,

Looks really nice! I love the background image of the ocean! Wish I was there! Some of those shots are amazing... Were they taken with your DSC?

You should try integrating the portfolio in the site's main "box", rather than having it open in a new window. It would make the site look more "together".

Wow... I just reloaded, and the field of, looks like dandilions, is incredible!!

Keep it up!

Should be sorted now.

Cos I'm hosting the site off my cable connection, I was having problems when my IP changed. I've since d/l a little app that is sposed to tell dyndns when my address changes. (thanks for the suggestion nicat23).
