Thought I'd try and launch myself under a name instead of using my personal name. I think clients prefer that, time will tell.

 

Anyway, here's the site.

 

I know it's a bit simple and plain and there isn't much to it but I'm just hoping to let it grow as time goes on. It's more somewhere I can send people to rather than the be all and end all of my web development.

 

Cheers!

I think, site is good, but that blue color is terrible. You should change it on something finer, or play with header and add here some images. And that menu is't good too. Play with it, it's your portfolio.

Really like the site, it's simple and really works, looks very professional. Breaks a bit in IE8 though, but the fixes will be easy with an IE8< stylesheet.

Looks really nice, reminds me of the older facebook

I love the blue. I think it's a super colour - and the simple bold menu.

 

...but then I like these hues of blue, 70's VW green, acid yellow and ORANGE (the kind of orange you have to shout)

Cheers, I'll have to test it. Thanks for the heads up!

Thanks and same! I played with those kind of colours for the site, blue was the one that seemed to fit best

Why you reacted only on positive feedback?

Something is bugging me about the charcoal grey bottom border of the blue header. I'd personally make the border have the same hue as the header color and perhaps mess with it's value a bit. I'm not exactly sure, but it's just my opinion.

 

Nothing much to say. It's clean and simple. Congrats on the new website.

I took your comments into consideration there just wasn't much to reply. Thanks though!

Thanks, it was a darker blue most of the time in the design, I can't remember why I made it black. I agree, blue's better!

Do not take it offensively.

I thought you didn't read my post, so I responded (not common way, but that's my style ). ;-)

It's good but it could be better. I'd tone that blue down, it says corporate organisation to me something that bold and simple. Have a play with some borders and text shadows to add breaks and depth to it.

I think it looks good, don't worry about making it over complicated, users/clients don't like to hurt their eyes. Look at sites we use everyday, for example Google. How simple is Google? That is always my thoughts when it comes to web design though. It's ok making really fancy Jquery, Ajax and Flash objects but sometimes they can mess your eyes up and your SEO.

I had simplicity in mind, thanks!
