Clean and simple. Looks nice. I don't think flash is necessary for most simple sites, but it still looks good.

Lol, sorry couldn't figure out how to add a link :) my HTML sucks :o). I used flash mainly because my HTML sucks!!! and I designed and built it in 3 days, just quit my job to start working as a freelancer so I used what I know best I guess.

i like the image options but not sure about the menu above that can't really see it and doesn't work with the rest of the nice design

Valid point, never thought of that. Just wanted to make it as easy to navigate a possible, I'll have a look at actually designing those a little more. cheers

"I used flash mainly because my HTML sucks!!!"
don't sell yourself that way, for starters!
You're promoting yourself as a creative flash developer: it would have been foolish and let's face it slightly suspect to waste an opportunity to demonstrate your skills wouldn't it? yes. yes it would.
anyways, it's sweet, lets the work speak for itself, which is it's purpose!
the only thing - if i was gonna be finnickety - the centre justification of "client" seems a little weird? not that an actual client would care about that.

Totally solid flash work in there. No one will care about the actual portfolio site once they get into your work.
And don't worry, everyone has their weaknesses. Your abilities with HTML parallel mine with flash. You will get a job no prob I'm guessing. Let us know how it goes.

what site?
- afroangel0
Cheers for that people. For the first time since I was 16 I don't have a full time reliable income kinna scary but it seems like the market is good enough to step out and take the risk.
P.s. I think you;re right about the 'client' - will sort that out tonight

Actuslly it's from this site - I've always thought u were him - we worked in the same agency in London and he introduced me to this site, but I looked at your website and you're not him - Really nice photography on your site by the way!
