Layout is dated
Title in the right-hand corner says 'home' on every page
Graphic (non-legible) text
Pointless slash page
Tables!

Store section looks good though.

Portfolio and pricing buttons look like they are being resized by the html.
Whoa with the tables dude!
Why is the text as a graphic?
PDF resume is Legal paper size. To be honest, I don't know which is used more A4 or legal?

Sorry, removed that.
What I was going to say was that there is no content on the initial portfolio page.
The text wasn't instantly recognisable as a menu and I didn't want to spend too long on what appeared to be an empty bright orange page.

You have some nice work in there. The site would benefit from featuring this more.

Nice favicon

Portfolio/identity is aligned left when all else is centered. Throws popup screen up but with 404 content?

Just realised this is a link back to the homepage!
Me go get me coat now

rightclick · 19-05-2006, 11:42

There are some missing links. Couple for the Identity section and a random pop-up in the Photoshop section. I spent a month building three complete websites for my portfolio in Flash (yeah yeah the rest of you) and I realised after each successful build that they needed re-doing to reach a level I was happy with. I offer you that advice.

Subsequently that was over 9 months ago and I haven't touched it since. Shame on me.

I think it is very bad. All that was mentioned above is my reasoning.

I am inclined to agree

mazziottidesign · 19-05-2006, 13:58

i took one 9 week course on webdesign, if that makes my lack of knowledge seem as an excuse

chris_bcn · 19-05-2006, 14:15

It's not really web design as such - mocked up in fireworks and exported as HTML.

I'm afraid I have to agree with the others. Rather than help you, this site detracts from the decent work in your folio

mazziottidesign · 22-05-2006, 16:01

I am redesigning my site. So stay tuned.

NickBolton · 22-05-2006, 16:16

My score out of 10 was jumping between about 4 and 5 while browsing. Noticed a few broken links, tables, and the layout doesn't feel very flexable.

Didn't like how I had to scroll down to enter the site, plus, who uses splash screens these days?

It feels like the focus is being taken away from your work by the layout. Perhaps you should tone it down a little.

it is still a work in progress, the splash screen will be gone when i finish the rest of the pages, i am going to put a tamer background too i think. everything will be cleaned up as finish the rest of the site
