Hey guys,

Here's the latest design I've been working on for my portfolio. I'm
hoping this thing will land me the job of my dreams so feel free to be
brutally honest with your feedback.

A note about the design mockup, this is a one page site and will
incorporate some javascript functionality that will feature anchor
link navigation with smooth scrolling animation as the user navigates
the page and a lightbox script to overlay the full size images over
the page without opening a new window or having to reload.

For time saving purposes, I've used 3 placeholders for portfolio
gallery but I plan to feature up to 18 pieces. Haven't decided if
that's too many but I may consolidate the gallery by featuring them in
a sliding carousel. But of course, that depends on your feedback (and
how long it takes for me to code).

Please leave feedback on design, layout, content, functionality, etc.


Thanks!
Roxy

I really love it!
a few technical things you may want to fix.
If I were you I would give it the background color
#003A3E
And then make the gradient up top a seperate image and make it 1px wide for fst loading times. And I would also mke the gradient below its own image and make the white strip css. And then make the bottom part a whole div and give it a background that is that floral pattern thing. And many sites have this problem so I guess you needn't worry about it, but If someone had a very tall resolution then there would be white at the bottom. to solve this, you could make the top and bottom gradient one image with the white border at the bottom and then make the background for the whole page be the pattern. And if you dont want that bit of white up top then just put margin:-5px; in the body part in your css. :)
