Finally got around to working on it.


http://www.diningwiththeenemy.net


Still working on the Portfolio part of it. I may not get to that till I start school, since I'm taking AP Portfolio for Graphic Design.


I'm also looking for anyone who would like some web space. A Hostee I think you call it? I don't even remember.

Criticism is appreciated, but really on the main image. The blog layout is kind of blaah but I really really hate making Wordpress themes.

^What? That's not Britney Spears.


I really like this a lot but have to agree with Mike on the background. I also kind of feel that you should maybe separate the website url from your navigation because I assumed it was part of the nav without reading it, you know? But other than that, it's nice :)

WTF that doesn't even look like Britney...

Anyway, the concept is nice, but I'm with Mike on the oversharpening. I typically just sharpen the photos before I encorporate them in the design and then leave all the text and brushes alone. Those things usually don't need sharpening. If they do, they're probably not very good.

^ Everything they said. Also, Idk if it's just me, but the image background is lighter than the overall background shrug.gif Looks a bit odd.

I agree that the background image should be bigger.


Also, I wouldn't mind if it was centered _smile.gif

The URL, which I assume should be nested on the black bar, is misaligned on both FF and IE for me. Have you thought about maybe putting up a header image at the top?


I actually made the url there on purpose. I kind of liked it being imperfect, maybe I'm just strange.

As for the sharpening I really appreciate the criticism for it. I usually sharpen all my images out of habit, I suppose. I guess I'll stop. :]

And that's definitely not Brittany Spears.

Or a black girl.

On the homepage the rollover's margins start a bit premature.
