nice. nothing award winning. but nice. work on some strong concept related pieces to add to your portfolio.

I'm suspicious of the fact you have felt the need to angle and put on a shiny table your layouts. It's almost admitting that they don't stand up on their own.
Other than that, work is ok i suppose, and there is not really much of a site to comment on.

its just a response to the work itself that im after. i just threw the site together in a matter of a few hours to get something up.

The obvious jpg compression on the rulers bothers me. Would have had them separate to the images of your work myself..

That first site looks like an illustration of a website. You should produce life sized samples. print designers are expected to produced physical example of their work. The least you can do it provide some.

Please remove the "Apple Style Drop Shadow 3D" look from your work, it has been down a gazillion times, it is dated already and also make your work look like a college portfolio. I would also make the dotted rules which divide your work with smaller dots, it looks a little heavy handed. Best of luck in the UK!

designmojo sounds a little amateur to me, but Austin Powers used the word "mojo" right.??.... and you are looking for work in the UK right? and people in the UK love Austin Powers right??? Bingo!

Kudos on some clean and contemporary work. Looks fresh and 2.0 friendly.
However, I might be suspicious of the fact that there are no links to the actual sites. Leads me to believe that these are just comps and not legitimate clients? (Also noticed some dummy text on the MSN mockup.)

Best work first.
Other than that I love it. Very clean - I think the way you have presented the work is refreshing and neat.
Well done
