I think you seriously need to re-consider the Boxlike logo type. More importantly, your url and logo don't relate - echoaroundtown and boxlike, I don't understand either of them. Don't try to think of a cool word(s) that describes the unimaginably hip that you'll be outputting. Its a bit trashbat.
If this is really just a portfolio for displaying work you've why not use your own name? I understand the appeal of using a pseudonym, I just don't think its beneficial at all for you at the moment.
I know yesterday moamoa suggested using Indexhibit, and I thoroughly agreed with him. Today you came back and showed that you had indeed gone forward with the suggestion, but all I can see is a dodgy logo with a few dead links.
Why not spend some time looking at other Indexhibit based portfolios, and see what works well and what doesn't. Please use your head and question everything you put into this, don't add useless elements because other designers have. Ask yourself with everything, a) does this to be here? b) if so why? and can I simplify it.
I've done all this before - posted my work online and been shot down from high in the sky, I listened to nearly everything I was told and I'm just passing that onto you. Some of it anyway.
I'm not expecting everyone to agree with me, and Im not expecting you to, but hopefully you'll at least take some of it on board for times ahead.
Also - when I click the boxlike logo it opens the site in a new window.. like this...
I kind of like it.
