I quickly put this together yesterday so that I have something to show employers. I stuck with a clean, minimal design for accessibilily and usability and also because I don't have much time to spend on it.

Check it out, let me know what you guys think, and please feel free to leave some feedback or suggestions. Like for instance, how I can improve my resume. Thanks!

I think its really nice Although the small fonts or what ever it is, the font for links is really pixelated I can't even read it..

screen shot?:


perhaps when you have more time, make all the images the same size for each section?
All of them being different sizes makes it look kind of unperfessional to me anyway.

Its really basic and simple, but its nice that way.

I like the simplicity of it. _smile.gif Everything looks clean and organized. One thing that bothered be a bit though, was the links. (thumbed)

It looks pixelized there. Eh, that's the only problem I see. I like it. Good job. thumbsup.gif
And as for your resume I can't really help you on that. I'm bad at those things. _unsure.gif

EDIT//

Aww boo. I got beat. sad.gif

Thank you guys for bringing that to my attention. It looks fine on my computer, I didn't realize it wouldn't render correctly on others. I thought it was a system font. sad.gif

But I'll take your advice and make those thumbs the same size. I really wanted to get around it, but you're right. Thanks again.

looks good. Simplicity is great, especially in portfolios when you want people looking at the work not the site itself.

HIRED!

Seriously, what a future you're going to have. The site is very clean, very simple to navigate around and you have an impressive portfolio.

Good luck with everything. :)

I like the simplicity of your overall design. It puts the focus more on your work and you as an artist rather than a flashy layout. Even with that said, it would be nice to see a simplistic banner to go along with everything. But even without one it still looks just fine. Your bio and resume are well written and straight to the point. Overall, very nice. Your highest marks would be for organization because everything is in order and easy to access.

Thanks for the feedback all! Twinny, I've been meaning to add a simple banner, just haven't figured out of what yet.

I've updated the site with some color nuances and a more unique navigation while keeping it clean and minimal. Check it out guys and let me know what you think!

swt site, impressive even in its simplicity.

On your resume, maybe it was on purpose, but under your experience, did you mean to list your duties as a substitute teacher in past tense while everything else.. wasn't? Perhaps unify that, but nothing to criticize on the design itself. I can't help that I'm a grammar Nazi. >_>;
