Hey everyone!
I registered here a couple of months ago and never really got the time to get into it. Now I finally do and I'd like to introduce myself by presenting you my new portfolio page. It's my first real portfolio and I actually launched it yesterday, so beware the fresh paint on the wall...

I'm really looking forward to some comments.
Cheers,
Lerain

Smooth design, original in places, for me atleast.
Not strict, but clean enough coding.
Just one tip: add more attention to cross-browser compatibility, i see a small glitch in main page with last two categories, browsing it with ff2
Anyway, looks professional enough. Keep it up!

looks good but I think the prices you have looks kind of low. You should look better how much hours you work on them normally and also look at how much other designers ask for.

Hi Chung & Maxson, thanks for your replies
Yea crossbrowser-coding gave me some headaches there. I think I've been experimenting too much without cleaning up the code every once in a while; I should have probably re-started from scratch at some point. Anyways, thanks for the advice Maxson - I'll try to fix that as soon as possible.
About the prices - yea I was not really sure about them indeed, which is why I made that "fixed" and "orientational" price-separation in case of websites with alot pages, long promo videos, booklets with many pages, and so on... Adjusting them to an adequate level is a matter of experience I suppose.
Thanks for the feedback!

I also like the color change on each page and dislike the white space to the right of the screen. I find the vertical links on your Collection of Work page difficult to read, too. Overall, I think it's a great website.
You also have spelled the word "amount" wrong on your Contact page.
"I did this separation because the ammount of work for some projects . . ."

Fixed the typo, thanks alot
The white space on the right was the very last thing I worked on. I didn't really want to just expand the gray bars of the top header and the footer. The white space in between always looked like something was missing. If the site had a dark background it would've been a different story. I felt a little frustrated at some point because I didn't find THE solution and I was like... screw this - lets just cut it off; in the truest sense of the word But his is definitely something I'm gonna think about again.

I finally fixed these bugs. I was/am using FF3 and didn't expect any major changes in the way the browser interprets the CSS (in comparison to FF2), which is why I didn't notice the problems with FF2 :/
Thanks again for the notice!
/edit: and I added a new/old project, linked on the main-page.

There were comments on the actual site, to which I agree mostly.
From the portfolio, I loved the typo book. The concept, and also the execution. Really good work on this one ! I think the Waterfalls logo could be better. I actually liked some of the concepts in the sketches more than the actual final logo. But I understand you are still learning, so I think you'll improve in this aspect. Again, loved the typo book.
