    to me, i guess it depends on a few things...

    if your site is purely for your own satisfaction, then by all means keep it.

    for me though, it was annoying to actually be trying to read the text and make sense of it, even though i knew where you were headed with it anyway.

    plus there's not much contrast between the white text and the tan background which probably added to the agitation.

    i just think it would be a little more appropriate, and a little less confusing to be a little more straightforward. another thing to keep in mind is if you are sending this site out as your personal portfolio, in hopes of possibly landing a job interview, (unfortunately) a lot of times, as i'm sure you know, they end up heading through some sort of HR dept. before they even make it to the creative dept...

    who knows what the typical HR persons going to make of all that latin!
