just out of curiosity, why is your personal logomark so similar to that of your last employer, Attik?
- thisispete0
coincidence, I've been using variations of the recycle PETE logo for self promotion since highschool...

Nice stuff. Opening screen image is not very inviting, though. At least to me. And others like me. But to each his/her own, more or less.
- yeah, the base image is random each time you load the page, I agree some of them are a little bland on their own.. I was considering a welcome screen that only loads when you first open it, but havn't put it into this version

loving the honda work, touch screen interface.. quality

Wow I can definitely tell the difference between the work that was backed up with a talented team of designers, or at least a good Art Director.......and work that looks like you did on your own. (Echoes of the Glen, Club Electropolis)
The difference in quality is astounding, and I'd say it's unfair to claim some of those other sites as your work without specifying the EXACT roles you played on those projects.

I just went through the "Design" section....yeah, pretty much confirms my suspicions. You're claiming credit for the output of actually talented Designers. Your own work looks like student projects or someone just starting out in freelance.

@killerqueen
So if you work as a developer on a project you should post only the code in your portfolio?? And designers in no way should post any moving pictures or links to sites because they didn't code the interface??

antistatic, go re-read what I typed.

It's just funny when people say stuff like "loving the honda work, touch screen interface.. quality"
...and then you look around the rest of the work, and you come to realize he probably had nothing to do with the creative direction, since it's so far beyond his design skills as an individual.

i don't think he's claiming to have designed some of these things. in fact, for "Little Deviant" it says: Flash website DEVELOPMENT for littledeviant.com.
I guess he should have made the typeface a bit larger for the seeing-impaired.
