just posted my site...well it's not done yet, but I wanted to get some feed back about the logo. Still considering some changes...maybe removing "by lena" but colors and typeface, I think I am pretty happy with....
So I guess just post what you think about it.Thanks in advance.

sorry here's the site address...

use another font.
why the pdf?
- warheros0
the text is kind of small and hard to read. what's with that circle in the lower left?
id maybe make the stroke on your logo a little thicker, and move it to the left side. also...what's with the gray border around everything? get rid of that.
just keep refining

i am still working on the site so i had to have something that would show some of my work and resume for now and that's dowloadable.
The font... what about it that you don't like, I designed that font for the logo... let me know what exactly you don't like about the font.

the stroke needs to be thicker i think, for the logo, but the font youre using for the body text, is too small and not very legible.

I'm not a fan of the font - whys there a blue pixel or a dot in the O - or am I trippin?
lose the quote quick - put your favorite image in there. something you've done. you a graphic artist? lets use graphics. (hint: never call your self an artist unless you want to sound like a freshman - in high school) IMAGERY. its not a theory.
pixel font the small text. and youre on your way.
colors are great. maybe take the brown and use it to fill in the bg.

nice colours, the fonts need to be sharper, try not to use imageready.

i didn't use image ready...
but yeah I guess I need to change the font, I was kind of happy with it, it all started from a sketch and now that I am looking at it more and more I think it's getting to me too. But keep'em coming please.
It's my first site that I'm designing so it will take time for me to get use to that, Im a print designer and needed to do a site for myself... but I will do some more logo ideas and see where that goes.
thanks

ok, but i would knock out the whitespace images.
- lenusiya0
what do you mean by whitespace images...
don't have so much white space?
- imakedesign0
sorry its not a big deal, but your site appears to be made up of lots of little images. its good practice to knock these out in dreamweaver.

It's hardly a site, all I can do is download a pdf, non?!
I agree with peteski lose the quote and the tagline.
That font for the company name is awful, very clumsy epsecially the e, s and n, I'd advise not to use a typeface with more emphasis on style than legibility, do you really want to communicate a lack of clarity? But having read your CV why the company name if you're looking for work at a design agency?
The pdf aint screaming to be read either, try splitting it into pages instead of one very long document. But on reading the CV, I believe you don't want to appear desperate or even pigeon hole yourself, so don't give an objective or desired postion.
I could go on but then it sounds like I'm having a go at you, but you did ask for a crit and I'm being as honest and constructive as I can.
Keep it simple.
Good luck
:)

the thing I have with the font is that I cant read it when you use it that small... And to be honest I dont like the font at all.
My advice is that you try a more clean layout.
