Hi guys,
Did this site for myself a month or two back, please have a look and tear it apart!

A bit of setup if it's worthwhile, i wanted the site to be quick and to the point for any people looking at it. That said, rip into it and let me know what you think.
Thanks!

Oh, and there seems to be a bug with the centering code that causes weirdness in IE5 on the Mac. I'd be curious to know how many of you guys are still using that browser, to gauge if i should even try and fix it.

nice and clean. shrink the header and line it up with the navigation.

"could you make your name a bit bigger maybe?"
I tried, but then I just started to look like a narcissist.
...But really, too big, eh?
- jevad0
Way too big
Also, as a typeface, I find century gothic a tad...gimmicky...if you're gonna use it use caps and drop the size down 2 or 3 levels

nice layout, but i agree with jevad. a+ for your experience, but your type skills show, too clumsy looking.

i like the navigation.
user friendly.

Thanks a lot for the feedback, guys!
Type has been a perennial weak spot of mine. Something I'm beginning to focus in on.
I've taken your advice, jevad, and made the name smaller. I agree with the gimmicky-ness of cenrtury gothic, but find it only really got that way when i used all lowercase, like in the text below my name. It felt cartoony. So i uppercased that mutha.
Again, thanks!

I just realized i forgot to ask: did that change make a lick of difference to anyone? I thought it looked a lot better, but would appreciate your thoughts. Thanks!

DHTML and Flash are not programming languages.
In fact how can you be advanced with DHTML if you are only moderate with Javascript ?
