    How many fucking times do we have to say web fonts!

    change the font to a web font,

    and think about the navigation some more, try centering or increasing its height a bit, and try to find colors which match more,

    a decent first attempt.

    All the filler text is arial, which is a webfont?

    The only other fonts were only for Logo and Sub-Headings such as NEWS.me, ABOUT.me, etc.

    Thanks for the advice, i think I'll keep the colors i used.

    It's a good try, but I think the filler font is too close to really read, esspecially by those with bad eyes like me.

    I'd also say get rid of the forum-like things like register, their login with messages, etc. because it's a portfolio site they are not needed to exist.

    Add some snazziness to the headings too ;) they don't stand out really well against the body text.



    (Will add more later)

    (And thanks for not flipping out stupdily like BoxWood)

    I love to get criticized by someone of your standard, it really helps me learn.

    what's 'webfont' i can guess what the filler text is but what's webfont = \

    It's a pretty basic, yet appealing design.
    maybe add a small touch to the sidebar, to give it a bit of an effect.

    good first attempt

    Redo the navigation
    Fix the alignment of.. everything
    Fix all of your text
    Change the drop shadow on the content in the middle
    Change the borders. The gradients don't look nice.
