Review my personal portfolio site

Hi,

I recently started out as a banner/header designer and have created a website since a very long time. It's my personal portfolio website, please review it: http://jbrouwer.com

Thanks in advance!
Kind regards,
Jeroen Brouwer

 

Everything's Invisible The links below the header only appear after a mouse over Also the Banner is very big and the font is also big. You need to give it a cute sleek look to attract customers I see that you have just started to develop your portfolio you need to work more on the design and contents part Good Luck.

 

You should focus on adding more content to the site, and it's very
difficult to see the links in the navigation of the site, you should
make those links more visible.

 

Thanks guys. The content will come with time.

Bhuntay, what kind of browser are you using? I'll make the header smaller and the font as well. But do you like the overall design so far?

 

Your general site design is good. I agree with the above the the menu links need to be visable and you need to add a bit more content. Consider adding a contact form on your contact page to make it easier for visitors to contact you.

 

I have changed the Font-size, header and menu-visibility. I think it's a lot better now, thanks guys.

 

Try to add some more content and work sample.

 

Cool, so everything else is fine? Because I'll be adding content and more work samples soon. Anyone who reviews from now on, don't bother to only mind to add content .

Thanks again, guys!

 

You can always change your designs to make it better. But at this moment I feel the design is descent and you should more concentrate on the content and work samples. Good Luck.

 

I have added a contact form and updated the portfolio with more samples. Could you please review the contact form and test if it's working properly? I don't have any mail-client installed so I can't.

Thanks in advance!

 

since you changed the font size your site looks better!

 

Maybe throw some pics up to make it more attractive, but i like the idea. Looks good in terms of the colouring.

 

Its too plain. Don't get me wrong simple is more but in this case simple is less. You need to add more content for starters.....

 

Very simple, design, that is what I really like. I notice you have no content or seo, I assume you just want direct traffic from adverts?

 

Thanks guys, I'll definitely be adding more content/pics. But has anyone actually tested the contact form I asked? That's what I want to know now .

 

Unless and until you have the email sending capabilities from the contact form , it has no much use. Currently it is opening the Microsoft outlook. Which is same as the direct "mailto" link at the bottom. Use php or other script along with the contact form to send emails directly.

 

Yes thanks for notifying. It's got a PHP script now and I think it's working fine, can you please test again?

Thanks!

 

The textfields are bright yellow now that makes it very hard to see what I am writing. I have sent you a message with that contact form. Check it.

 

Bright yellow? They are grey here, same as the bg. And I received the email .

 

Congratulations.I am seeing it bright yellow in ff3 and ie6. Check other's comments.
