I couldn't stay at the page long because the background started to hurt my eyes. One thing I might suggest is to have a soft pink to white gradient background with your pink links. Pink on pink is...bad.
That's just my opinion though!
I'd love to really browse through your portfolio, I just can't stay long :-)

Your logos aren't bad though, you have some pretty good ones. Good luck with it.

The tiling background is too bright, and there is too much open space...if you are truly in love with the background, pop it into photoshop and dull the pink down a little.
First off, the links are confusing....It took me time to see the arrows were links rather than the names....
The whole opening and closing of new windows is bad...maybe do it in flash, or at least look into something like the Coppermine Photo Album (thats an open source program for showing photos, but would work well to show off the logos).

Nope, it's because you're on the wrong side of the world like meThe logo pages loaded up reallyyyy slow for me, and I have broadband. Not sure if it was my browser or not.
I didn't mind the slowness for the most part, untill I got to the second webpage design (it just wouldn't go, period). The background, well, I can see what you're going for, but maybe that color is best left for accents.
Overall, I thought you had a large quality range for the logos. I found some very inspiring, and others very unoriginal and bland.
Thanks for sharing! Always good to see what other designers are up to

Your logos look great...but the web page is bad...slow loading, and painful on the eyes, and usability is a huge issue.
The tiling background is too bright, and there is too much open space...if you are truly in love with the background, pop it into photoshop and dull the pink down a little.
First off, the links are confusing....It took me time to see the arrows were links rather than the names....

Slow loading is becose its slow hosting... I must buy my ownd domain. Thank you for comments, this week I redesign my portfolio

One thing I might suggest is to explore CSS/XHTML a bit more. A lot of things you used with images could've been used using CSS - that would speed up loadtime a bit.
Enjoy!
