    Temp. Portfolio site

    Let me know what you think of my work.
    I've kept it REALLY simple with not much of anything but images.
    This is just a temp website till I get the time to build my own.

    I did noticed that like 4-5 images had some jacked up edges, not sure what happened there but it'll get fixed as soon as I figure it out. Let me know if you find the same problem, Just in case it's on my end. LOL..

    Thanks, be brutally honest and point out the goods and bads.

    The believe design is a Tattoo I did for Orlando Wedding Photographer Karla Fountain. Wedding and portrait photography in Tampa, Miami, and Sarasota Florida.

    deck of cards
    That is one of my favorites as well.

    I'm still having problems fixing the 4 images that are kinda jacke up. I've resized them in illustrator and even redid one, they look good then upload them and walla same look. They are= Do performance&Fitness, Finroo, Muscle car place and market slant. anyone have an idea what is causing this? could it be the free website? I'm designing/saving them as high res. as possible and they were designed the exact same way as the others?

    The only thing i can possibly see that you need to work on is with your logos, you tend to use a stroke alot and I think that some of the logos would look cleaner without the stroke on them.

    You definitely have the web 2.0 look down for sure.

    Thanks FMD. I think I know what you mean by strokes.
    I also believe I've not selected my logo choices wisely even though I thought long and hard about what I'd put up for review. Since I'm still in the design stage of my "real" website I'll be using a larger veriety of logos. I've been told I used alot of illustrative type of logos that some people may not be fond of.
    I appreciate the feedback.

    Hey man anytime, just keep at it and maybe throw a couple different styles in there to show your range.

    Hello, since I design logos so I looked only at logos you've made. The first visual thing I didn't like is the size of the logos. I think you should make them much smaller to make it better to view. I liked Lucy Hammel logo a lot because it's very clean and well done, great work!

    Thanks.
    I've resized all the logos and the set up of my "real" site will show them off better. I'm slowly putting the new site togeather as I'm still learning a few things and reselecting a broader range of logos and illustrations.

    On the homepage, up on the top, the edge looks a bit unfinished. Im not sure if its part of the design, but i kinda dont like it.
    and also it takes time for the pages to load, from homepage - logos,it could also be, coz the logos are such big files.

    Thanks for the feedback. The edges became pixelated when I uploaded it (if your talking about the 'C' image) I've adressed this issue and it won't happen on my perm site.
    The loading issue is a mixture of a Free host site and large images.

    appreciate the critiques.

    Thanks for wanting to have a look at my work.
    The first post's link doesn't work anylonger since I don't use it.
    I've been using this as a portfolio page.
    designed.nu | Coy Designs's logo design portfolio.
    I've also edited my first post to show this info.
