My New Portfolio!

    I've been procrastinating for a while, switching between possible portfolio designs and also what to have on there (damn perfectionism!)

    Check it out:

    What do you think? Open for all feedback good or bad, whether it's about looks, things that could be done better, or anything else! :)

    The site looks professional and I like the testimonials in the right column
    that's superb. I think you should have a few sentences of text at the top
    of the page that tells your visitors about you or what type of work you do
    because it's good to have this type of info on your landing page.

    I like this design wery much. The colors mix well. Everything is aligned and grouped well.
    I can see good contrast in fonts too.

    Good work!

    Yeah ... I really should add an opening paragraph explaining what exactly I do :)

    I do design, code, SEO - the works, but the portfolio on the homepage is mainly designs I've converted from PSD to HTML (they aren't all designs I've done)

    Everything looks perfect except what kingofsanda mentioned, an opening paragraph describing in brief about your portfolio.
    Also the footer looks orphan, sorry if i used the wrong word ;-)
    It needs a little facelift IMHO!

    Added a paragraph. Does that make it clearer what I do? Might still be a bit broad.

    There is one more thing you are missing. You need to relax. This website is very professional. I really do love it. It is so nice that you dont need round corners.
