ok, im throwing myself to the jackals now.
I'm trying to build up my body of work so I can have a decent amount when I finally get my own site, and right now I have what I got so far on this temp host,
check it out and let me know what you think.
THANKS

the forest in the background is making my eyes bounce around and not letting me view the work which is where my focus should be.
i suggest a solid bkgrnd with a neutral tone.

1. Drop that forest bkgd shite
2. Get some real hosting
3. Nice...

Really dig your work bro. But I think the background is a bit distracting.
Good work!

thanks alot guys, i was also thinking the bg was a bit distracting, but i liked it cause it kind of goes with the allnatural theme.
but maybe if i just tone down the opacity alot.

definitely ditch the background image... also some of your work is a bit hard to pick out. either to much other work in the same photo, or to much 'macro effect' so only a small part is clear
I'd rather see a flatter versions of your designs.
a couple photos are broken links, and a couple are bigger than they need to be...
other than that, i like!

yeah, i do need to resize some of the works, cause i dont like the fact that i have to scroll to see the entire thing....
and probably the links are broken cause that host sucks a ton.

I like the band shots.

it looks just like 60 other portfolios i've seen here
one page folio, overuse of avant garde, nopattern rips, etc etc

no offense or anything

i might risk sounding like an idiot here, but what exactly is 'avant garde' design?
- shilohous0
i think that phrase is directed at a simple header in avante garde and the gang of stacked jpegs.
has nothing to do with 'avant garde' in the historical sense
- foreverwhatever0
im not sure, but i think he was referring to the font avante garde.
which is used in i think one like 1 or 2 of my works. most of the font is helvetica and futura.

- funkage0
ah. i thought so too. thanks shilohous.
notice a lot of designers going into that trend nowadays.
wonder what's next.
