Critique my portfolio website?

    Name's Yuriy, I'm a web designer and developer based in Seattle, WA, USA.

    As a first post I figured I share what I've done to date, and ask if anyone's got any advice for recommended changes. It's meant to be clean and appeal to as wide an audience as possible as I both freelance and contract. Thanks in advance for your time!

    That's a well done, clean layout. I really like the JS projects filter feature.

    The design's a very neat & modern looking design, and i love it. I do really like the projects feature too.
    I think you've done a great job!

    Looks very clean, modern and professional... you should think about adding a call to action for potential clients to contact you for work though.

    Thanks for the feedback!

    Goliveira I'm not too concerned with a call to action as the website is meant to showcase my work to prospect clients that I already introduce myself to, or that are directed to my website from my other online portfolio's (Coroflot, Behance, etc.). I'll think about it though... Maybe a button at the bottom (about section) titled HIRE ME?

    That could work, but if you really just using it to show your work to clients that already know you then you're right, you probably won't need anything like that

    You made me copy and paste so I was ready to give you a really bad review but then it turns out that your website actually kicks ass (design wise). Keep it up man.
