Default Its nearly time to relaunch

Some of you know that I have been redesigning and building my website...BY HAND!!! I just want to say thanks to those who have helped me along the way ;)

Here it is, not directly on my domain name yet as Im coding all my portfolio pages now.

I think it is all valid xhtml and css too...

your navigation is too crowded.
it might need to stand out a bit more too. maybe not.

other wise it's a good site visually. congrats!

it's your site so i'm not going to tell you how to fix it.
space it out more. make it vertical. whatever you want to do.
leave it the way it is for all i care.

Space your top right navigation out a little bit and i think the site is very very good - very easy to use good work Phil

PS - i really like your logo

too many click throughs for me, home > portfolio > print > project, it's buried too deep, use the space available

I know what you mean, Inm adding lightbox tonight so that once a prospected client is on the preview screen the simply click the image to show it...although I am having a bit of a problem with this. Is there a way that I can set the image size to auto or soemthing so that the image will expand without "adding" the horrible scroll bars to the page?

Thanks again,

Phil

the nav is a bit crowded, i suggest if you want to keep it like that that you make each alternate link a different color. but other than that a cool site
