| That's a pretty well designed site. The only thing I would change would be the colour of the text. Maybe change it to the same shade of grey as the curved objects in the banner. Also center the whole lot. There's nothing more annoying than viewing a site that is designed for a small browser in a big browser and having everything to the left. Otherwise good job. |

| thanks for the reply. i think you are right...i have centred it all now. the text thing is an issue but if you look at it for too long it strains your eyes that is why i have gone for a darker colour. thanks ash |

| The text colour is fine, but i would suggest adding some "shabazz" to the scrollbars. Escecially since you have that IFrame type thing in the center of your page. Just make it blend in more. Maby some orange arrows would be nice and a grey that blends in better. |

| thanks for the review but i don't want to change the scrollbars because it will prevent the page from validating. I haven't used iframes, i used divs to create the scrolling effect, it gives you much more control and helps accessbility. thanks ash |

| the centering is now done cross browser (only ie before), thanks for that. i haven't used iframes it is a div with an overflow property. I don't see how php include would work here, to change the effect. thanks ash |

| the layout and design look very clean and professional. i also like the reflection effect in the portfolio. my only critique is the banner. it serves the purpose, but i think it might present a good opportunity to showcase some of your graphic talents. it strikes me as a little plain and less than you're capable of.

| i think you are right...thanks the reason why i did it like that is because many standard templates always have a graphic intensive header... you know faded grid...business photo...silver and curled anchor points as soon as i get some inspiration about what to do with the header i will change it. but realistically i will build it again in flash before then thanks ash |
