Feedback on my portfolio website

[Pawf]

I agree with this lady.
I can sort of see the style you're going for, but it needs more depth, a background pattern and maybe a better font for the headers.
Check outhttp://subtlepatterns.com/for a nice background that doesn't overwhelm the page.
Use text-shadow to add a bit of depth.
I'm not sure about the font, that is purely up to you, I just think it could be a bit more friendly and less sharp.

THESE ARE MY OPINIONS, YOU MAY HAVE THEM NOW.

Thanks, I checked that website and found some great inspiration, but nothing that struck me as instantly usable. Think I'll play around and make my own one

Use a smaller font. I would say Verdana size 13.

I have implemented a smaller font size now, and agree it looks great

For all those interested, the site has been updated, and now looks like this (in Chrome anyway!)

I can't see any of your work, I like the design though. It's plain but it looks different to most sites nowadays.

This design is simple & plain but I really like it Very affective IMO

Its a basic website, a bit plain.
The layout in the middle is a bit simple, so play around with the layouts.
Add some colour as well

Hey all,

I've spent some time redoing my portfolio website. The portfolio itself it's that populated yet, however I'm looking for some feedback on the website itself.

Please give the usual constructive stuff that I know and love

Thanks.

[EDIT] I would point out that the code hasn't been cleaned up yet, and I have written this sort of as I go along without much planning, so please don't think bad of me for that!

It's very nice oliver. Though I do not get the Hotel Furniture "connection"?

It just feels like you've taken a Word document, exported it as HTML, uploaded it, and said "voila".

It doesn't feel like a website, but more like a holding page. Placing the content in boxes, using a background colour/image, and implementing a wider range of colours may help to make it feel more like a proper website.

You've stated that not all theinfrastructureis in place yet, but none the less I feel I should point out that all your hyperlinks (ncluding, alarmingly, your "contact me" link) don't go anywhere. I don't mean to offend, I just felt I should point it out in case you weren't already aware.

It's awful.

A portfolio is used to showcase your work and all that showcases is your fondness for empty space.

I do like your website and how its laid out i just think you need to add abit more, it look really plain :/
