Hi, I'm an undergradute in my final year at demontfort university (UK) studying Multimedia Computing. Anyway, I've completed a website trying to show a professional side to me as well as a chilled-out side...basically I've tried to do something different other than just another portfolio site, while strying to keep current web trends in mind. So I would very much appreciate it if you could tell me what you think of my site (www.projectaddictive.com) via this forum and maybe give me a little advice if you have the time. You could also let know via email (ssingh@projectaddictive.com) or the blog section on the site. Thank You for your time, Sukhjinder Singh, BSc Hons (...almost!)
The site doesn't have a professional feel to it.. it looks more creative and artsy. One suggestion: try to make the background behind the text lighter? The text is hard to read over it.
I'm not really diggin' the pastel background of your content nor do I think the wood paneling background of the site fits at all it's not TERRIBLE though, I think it's really great for a first start you'll tweak it as you learn and it'll all be good vanessa.
ive seen the bg image in a wordpress template or somewhere in DA, other than that you need more boxes etc. to give it that professional feel
To be honest mate, it lacks a professional feel. Ditch the wood effect in the background, doesn't really go with the 'Music notes' and 'Flowery Pattern' you've got going. Get a background that clashes a bit more!! I do like the way the lettering in your banner gets a blue fill when you change page, nice touch! Good luck with your Uni mate!
i know the look you are going for, just the pastel type colors didnt seem to come out the best. like SGman said try a differnt bg color.
Cheers all and thanks for the constructive criticism, which gave my friend sitting next to me much ammusement! I think the background does need changing to something more relevant to the subject, but as for the look...at the time i wanted to go with a casual, chilled-out look, but maybe i need a bit of both...more going on maybe? In anycase I appreciate the comments and will be tweaking the site after im done from uni, before I go on a much needed holliday! Thanks all, Sukhjinder Singh
The background doesn't blend right with the main page.... Plus the text color... It doesn't appear to be readable...
Same feeling here. Another possible enhancement might be to have less text and more blank space, it usually makes the site look much more classy. Nice site anyway - with a creative touch, keep it moving
Your wood background doesn't flow with your theme. It is hard on the eyes reading the text where the two guys are standing, and it takes your focus off the page content.
The Undergraduate, Do something about your text...I can hardly read it - it hurts my eyes. Anyway, the overall design is not so bad but you need a lot of improvement to make it look much better.
I think it looks good for a personal site, but it's not really professional. Also the background takes away from the text. I like it though. It's memorable and carefree. Keep up the good work! Chris
I think it shows your creative side I think maybe you could change the background somewhat, maybe change the transparency on the people standing there. I'd suggest a single color background. Overall it's not too shabby!
These navigation are not seeing well.. try with some different color Home | About Me | My CV And also can do something in bottom potion for better look n feel Try some lining or some background color/image for it.
