Rafay.

Thank you so much for a brief review! I really appreciate that. You just made me realize this, now that I look at the copyright, I don't like it. :/ Well, I put the menu to a better place, I don't think that's a problem. In fact, design-wise; it goes better. You are right about the second part tho, I also did a little mistake there. Thanks for the feedback, I'll a current state button with a slightly different color. The email button: I already had that idea. As you have see, I've underlined the 'Designer' text; that will open up a tooltip to show what programs and language I specialize in. The same will apply for the email icon. That's one another mistake by me, I'll fix that tomorrow. Like I said, the portfolio page isn't quite ready that, the box that opens up when clicked while show some description along with the link to the live site as well. About the tweet button: I didn't put them there, they just came packed with the script (PrettyPhoto), which I haven't customized yet.

Hello guys! (and gals, if any). After like 2 to 3 versions of my portfolio, I finally came up with this. It's not quite ready yet (he's kidding, it's almost done). Let me know what you think. Clicker. To do list: Style Portfolio Page (It's just a skeleton as of now). Fix: Scrolling back to the home page while viewing portfolio items (click the images). Make Contact Page. Find a way to dynamically update portfolio items. (GOT SUGGESTIONS?)

What do you mean?

Anyone? Willing to take some time and review it.

Erm... I know that right.

It's okay, I think it's just a personal opinion with the "strapline". BTW: It's not supposed to be bold, I think something is wrong. It's bugged. D: Haha, thank you. I was experimenting with the effect, didn't wanted to keep it but I like it now, lol. Gotta love css rotations. They aren't giving negative comments, I mean yeah but I asked for feedback and I'm pretty much sure everyone where is more experienced than me and their opinion matters to a beginner. Thanks for the appreciation. The reason ribbon doesn't looks realistic is because I'm using CSS shapes instead of images. BTW: Awesome design buddy!

The screens you have aren't squares I guess?

What do you guys think? Which one is better for a designer (or maybe a developer)? A single widescreen monitor (20"+), A dual-monitor setup (19"x2 (square)). I'm under budget right now, so I can't really afford a widescreen monitor. I already have a 19" square monitor and I can grab another used one which same resolution for cheap prices. I already have a good graphic card to support both of them. I wering as wondwhich could help in more efficient and fast workflow? I don't know much about widescreen monitors, if I add up the amount of resolutions I can get from dual-monitor setup, it will be 2560x1024. Which in my opinion is pretty good for web designers/developers out there. We can make potential use of that, my examples would be: 1. Keeping the browser window on one monitor while coding in another. 2. Keeping the tools in one monitor while designing the site in another.

Editor name: Sublime Text 2 Web site link: http://www.sublimetext.com/2 Price: 59$ (There is currently no enforced time limit for the evaluation.) Brief description: Sublime Text is a sophisticated text editor for code, html and prose. You'll love the slick user interface and extraordinary features.

Why don't you apply the width of the page to the container div and try "margin: 0 auto;" on it? Should work. As far as I have learned, you shouldn't be using tables for layouts. Correct me if I'm wrong.

You should also try out Google Webfonts. Pretty neat and has a lot of fonts to get started with. Edit: If you are on Chrome, try WhatFont? extension to find out the fonts. Works on images too! (Well, sometimes).

I love WordPress so much that I had to post this. First of all, WordPress can do almost everything you can imagine of. The main reason I like to use WordPress is; it doesn't care what HTML, CSS, JS you use, you can customize it the way you want. :3 Love it! Another plus point for me is it's user interface, it's beautiful and easy to use.

Considering the goals of your site, I'd say WordPress is your best choice. It has all the functions you could probably ask for. and, What you smoking bro? WordPress is as easy as eating a piece of cake. Trust me when I say this, I'm just starting out and I've find myself a lot comfortable working with WordPress. Plus, it has a huge community and a number of support sources, (mainly the Codex itself.) so if you ever get stuck, you know you will solve it by yourself.

Hey there! I'm Rafay, a "still-learning" web designer based in Karachi, Pakistan. I have a passion for web designing and I like what I do, I enjoy making websites. You guys might have seen a very few enthusiasts from Pakistan, I'm one of them. I developed interest a few months back and from that point, I haven't looked back. I've tried to learn everything I could on the web. I tried attending web design classes in my city but couldn't find anything new there since I had learned most of the stuff on the web. Anyway, I've joined this community to get help and make new friends with designers and developers. Visit my site. Thanks! Rafay.

Like I said, "Don't view "work" and "contact" pages at the moment, since they are still being worked on. "

It's just I want it that way since it's my portfolio. I'll fix that issue. Like I said, "Don't view "work" and "contact" pages at the moment, since they are still being worked on. " I didn't noticed that, in almost every browser I used. I benchmarked the fps and it was about 42fps so it shouldn't be flickering. You just made me think about it, lol. Thanks for the suggestion anyway, I'll work on it. Not really, when I started drawing it on a paper, I didn't took inspiration from other designs (which is bad). Thank you everyone for replying! Really appreciate your comments and suggestions

No comments? Sorry for being a little impatient.

Hello webdesignerforum! Greetings from Pakistan. I want you guys to take a look at my portfolio design and share your thoughts and views about it. (Nope, I'm not advertising). Click here. (Sorry about posting while being completely new to the forums). 100% powered by WordPress baby! I'd be lost without WordPress. <3 So yeah, if you visit the site, take a look and take some time to comment on how good or how bad (as expected) it is. What do you think about the concept? The colors, basically every aspect. Another thing, please post your web browser, and your respective resolution on which you will view the site. It's important to note here that I'm just a beginner starting at web design and I just purely LOVE IT! Don't view "work" and "contact" pages at the moment, since they are still being worked on.
