i like it, i'd get rid of the button bar at the top of the pop up window. don't include anything. make it so it's a fixed size.
are you sure that's all you want to include in the resume section.
the site looks good but you have a few technical things to work out. i was checking the 3D work and when you click on something for a larger version, the image flashes then the pop up goes blank. that's in Safari on a mac,(of course)
in IE, when you click on those images, a small window pops up, then expands but it doesn't expand large enough to see the image.
fix the bugs then you'll be good to go.

Kyo, I really like the site. The only thing that got in my way was the scroll bar on your right hand news section. To give you and idea of where I'm coming from; when I visit a site via NT, I let my insticts go and grab the fist thing that draws my attention, for some reason your scrollable news section grabbed me. When I grabbed the scroll bar, I didn't know what wa going on - because it didn't move, which is okay, but then I saw two buttons that said "up" and "down", so I thought "oh, maybe I need to use these instead of the scroll bar", but still nothing happened, which is okay too. So, though I'm a patient guy, why did I have to go through the same experience twice to find the same result? Either I'm drunk (which I am. :), or I was given a redundant form of navigation that made me question wich of the two presented navigations was the proper one.
Had I encountered just the scroll bar, and found that by trying to scroll ,the text did not appear to move, I would have concluded that "hey, no big deal. The text stops here, but man, this site looks good!" Instead I happened to noticed two buttons that challenged my atempt to scroll yet again, so I tried the buttons and thought "Hmmm same thing, the text won't move, why am I wasting so much time on the news section when this site looks great and there's probably some kick ass work in here". Know what I'm saying? It might sound stupid, but that's the reality of my purely non-design oriented, instantanious user reaction.
Don't forget that my reaction includes "...man, this site looks good!"
But hey, I'm drunk. :)
