    New Website

    Finally got around to updating my portfolio site. i kept the site design quite simple as i want the focus to be on my portfolio pieces.

    http://www.onesummer.net

    feel free to be picky and point out any/everything you think needs fixing.
    I especially would like to hear about load times, usuability issues, and any layout problems. screen shots would be great if you see something that does not look "right". sorry, I guess I'm using you guys as test subjects, lol.

    site's been tested in IE7, firefox, and safari.

    I do know of the javascript error that IE7 gives on the photography page, and in the process of getting it fixed, though not sure why it is giving it, as it does not affect anything on the page.

    thanks!

    Its nice Paul, very nice.
    Simple easy to navigate. I'm sure that you're updating and/or integrating some ideas that are having, so... you're on the right path.

    The (-) minus sign: If you could add a third color I think it will look much better.
    Think about it.

    Clean and simple. Nice work.

    My only thought is that the layout of the photography section differs from that of your other portfolio sections. I personally prefer the left-hand nav you used in the other 2 sections for consistency, but like I said...personal preference.

    Good work. Oh, and we are neighbors, lol. I was just down there yesterday.

    I preferred it too. I went back and redid the photography page to use the left hand side navigate. I'm big on consistency, so I had to do it. All I needed was another person pointing it out as well to get me to do it thanks. I think it 'fits' better now.

    Perfect! Way to take constructive criticism.

    Nice, simple and clean website!
    The site is intuitive and aesthetically pleasing.

    A lot of other peoples portfolios are way too flashy and confusing to navigate.
    This one gets straight to the point with the main page showcasing some of your works in a neat manner.

    hey, nice one!

    Really cool, clean interface.

    By the way, I remember seeing the Chinese Sims logo in logopond! So I guess I have seen your work before.
