I just put up a site with some of my work. It would be interesting to get some feedback on it.

looks good man...i like the transitions and colors...
only comment is that overall, the site looks a little pixelated, not crisp at all...viewing OSX IE 5.2.2

Doesn't load for me.

I fixed the problem. I had to publish it again, the html seemed fine but it wouldn't work on a PC for some reason. I'm running os x and using flash mx.

lose the photo of you, it is unessesary, and a little corny if i must say. im not big on the bg music. also, your portfolio images are very pixelated (and tiny!)—and i wouldn't have that funky shaped red box behind your images (make it sqaure dude)

..and lunch the links to your portfolio sites in a new window.

I like the background music. Is it yours? I'm pretty sure the radio station I listen to played it before.
At any rate, the site looks great, the color palette you use is very rich, and how things move around when you navigate around is smooth.
The text could be crisper and stronger, though. Like your contact info and the sub-nav text in the "Portfolio" section. Also, the words in the "Profile" and "Resume" sections are too spread apart. Maybe make the "Contact me" text in the "Resume" section an actual link people can click to send you emails.
Overall, cool site.

Lose the apostrophe in "Wallpaper's" - the title suggests that the section contains some stuff belonging to someone called Wallpaper.

portfolio images are a bit too small. isn't there a way to enlarge them?

There's a lot of aesthetic things I like about the site, but I don't think you clearly placed who you are and what you do on it. You're giving away wallpapers, trying to sell a CD thats incomplete, and you have a kinda hard to navigate/see portfolio. Then I'm like ok works cool, but lets see his resume. I clicked there, and that is no where near a resume. Theres no name on this site, your logo looks so common place and unidentifiable that I'm left thinking, who what... yeah I'm gone.....

Thanks I've got some improvents I'm working on for the site. Mainly now to make it a little more comprehensive.
It's good to get some feedback

links for lazy people like me:
Agree with the valid arguments made already. I like the menu, even though the triangle shape is kinda lame. Not digging the blurred background image and reddish colors. Matter of preference I guess. So no biggie.
Important: You should lose the additional click on the portfolio part. Just open one of the items automatically (print for example).
Good bg music: nice touch to have something of your own.
