new portfolio design

So, i dont want a one page design anymore, so am going to be making a new site in flash, and have come up with this. My aims were clean, minimal and functional.



Just looking for crit on the layout really, and anything else if you want!

Thanks

I'm guessing that the 'Electro Girl' has an X on her mouth to shut her up, as the previous piece "Repetition Woman' annoyed your head! lol!

Nice design, very clean

It's nice. Still not a big fan of that logo, but that's just me. Otherwise, I have no complaints.

Only she's 130 pounds lighter and has all her teeth (probably).

Good work, nice to see some simplicity for a change in a portfolio. Have to agree with pgo on the brand, just not my cup of tea. Other than that, run with it.

The quick answer is usually one of 3 things

1. fonts

2. Layout control

3. Transition animations

dont like the dotted lines or that pixel font. the whitespace (created by the friends section) on the bottom right isnt working. Change the logo.

the e and t in that logo are very hard to understand, they look like c and n respectively.

one way to solve this would be to use horizontal lines. It's far too abstract to be read at the moment. It wouldn't be beyond you to make it readable, as you haven't used it in your old site.

i love it........nicely minimal.

I would change the logo......its a bit too busy and contradicts the rest of the site....just my opinion.

Has anyone else noticed the overuse of the words "clean" and "minimal" - even when it's not appropriate?

It's not relevant in this case, but I'm just saying...
