Eddy, i think it would be nice (as a user) to be able to un-dim all of your pieces with 1 click.
i like being able to scroll and view all the projects, but i hate having to mouse over to actually see what it looks like...
looks good though.

I also thing the target audiance for your partfolio is Creatives .. and all creative places have broadband.
I would rather see people work large and wait an extra second then click 100 times

I see nick, cool.
Well most users use the scroll wheel on the mouse and as you go down, it highlights.
Yes I can see this if you use the scroll bar.. But I didnt think people still used those.

nice, eddy.
my only major complaint about your site is that the menu font looks very blurry here and is not very legible or toight!

"Well most users use the scroll wheel on the mouse and as you go down, it highlights.

I am on a mac.. and I cant use a wheeless mouse. Mac mice are the devil.
Anyway... Thanks for the comments guys. I take them in but let me tell you a little secret..I put this up in 2 nights for an interview and am now an emlpoyee at another agency here in SF. Wahoo

I agree with nick and snuggles. What I think your site needs DutcBoy is space.
Use absolute width and not as wide as now, and also perhaps you don't have to show the finished products all the time. I am thinking about the stands, perhaps just show some of the artwork, cropped and zoomed in. Makes it a bit more 'dynamic'.
And try to show some kind of previews/thumbnails instead of showing the whole thing unless you click it. And also try to come up with a format within which you showcase your stuff eg. fixed height and width also for the imagery. Will make everything look more consistent! Ie. I really like that tshirt you did, but seriosly i know what a shirt looks like and it's not important for me to see the sleeves etc. zoom in in the print and crop. (I always think my english sucks when i have to explain things, sorry :-)

Donvitoviti, good work dude. The highlight thang is a little weird, but it works with the scroller on the mouse. i could see it as an issue with mac users, but fack it... nice site dude, my first time there.
- Donvitoviti0
man nick, you are only 2 blocks from me now
- DutchBoy0
excellent points there, MLVR! thanks.
dammit, i wished i could work on it now.. but gotta cleanup my office a bit more and finish some client work..
Grrr and gnn...

one more thing I thought of... you need a layout width headlines and stuff, it's to generic and plain atm. you need separate your menus from your content with more than a line.

Thanks... I guess you gotta take some chances sometimes with things....such as the rollover. I like it, so I guess thats what matters since its my site in the end.
