Hey everyone, I graduate from college (undergrad) in May and would really appreciate any comments or constructive criticism that you may have regarding my portfolio: http://www.klick175.com/
I'm an aspiring "Creative Technologist" (Flash developer / Coder / Art Director / Designer). For that reason, I've included a rather diverse body of work.
Thanks in advance.

15 lines of fame at the end is totally gay

Just kill that useless and annoying image on the left will you?

you seem to have a good portfolio. why not let the work speak more by toning down the site a bit. there seems to be too many colors, bars, lines, and other graphic elements that detract from your work. the image on the left seems to have no point as do the 15 lines of fame.

It is very confusing. Too much going on. When I first clicked on the site I thought it looked strong but then started browsing and soon stopped because of the awkward navigation.
I agree that the girl on the left is pointless and confusing.
Unless that is you, and even then, eh.
- ok, thanks for the feedback. i'll make those changesklick175

Lose the Design section or at least take out the Meg Tape project, its not your strongest work. Seems like your coding skills are solid so focus more on your interactive stuff. Overall it looks good for someone your age.

Did you intern at CPB for just the summer and then went back to school? Maybe just say you worked there during "summer 2007" instead of "june-august". It just sounds better for some reason. That internship should get your foot in the door at a lot of places.
- Thanks for the comments mtgentry -- i appreciate the advice :)klick175

Lose the nav; especially the about you.
Preload images only when the user wants to access them... there was alot of unnecessary loading going on there.

hmm - get rid of the 15 lines of fame and your picture - kinda weak...other than that, the work is cool - i agree with the comments for toning down the site and letting the work stand out...thats the single most important thing about a portfolio site...Tons of potential here, though, looks like you will have no problem getting work after that internship...

very interesting stuff but the loud site quiets the good work down imo

kill chick photo now damnit!
everything else looks great except the section about yourself. just list credentials. i thought you were well rounded until i read that, then i started wondering. it's just not necessary. more clutttttttter.
*slap - carry on >>
