I just relaunched my personal portfolio, Dreamten Studios, featuring 20 projects I've worked on over the past 5 years. Check it out at http://www.dreamten.com/

Thank you for writing that in the first person! I like you for that fact alone.
Maybe change "Clients" to Client Login" I go mad when I clicked on it and was confronted with a login screen - I thought it was going to take me to a client list.

I like it. There's a line underneath the "Request an Estimate" button is that a bug or feature?

thanks for the comments guys.
good idea flashbender, will definitely change that to client login.
daro - didn't notice the line. what browser are you using?

I'm not keen on the change in interaction between the nav and main header - it looks better to me on the front page, where it's just a block divide. The 'curved' shadow thing on the other pages looks a bit incongruous.
I'd also change your portrait photo - its MySpace low quality feel jars heavily. Also, if I were you, I'd not bother posting the DreamTen alternatives you've put in your blog - having them there is a bit hokey and detracts from the illusion of The Best Solution given by final site. I think you could make your contact page look a bit better too (buttons, layout) - you particularly need to clarify the red Required Fields thing. Though, I do like the way you've highlighted their requirement after submission.
All these tiddly things aside, I really like it. As Moamoa says, it makes you look a lot bigger than you are (which begs the question - should you refer to yourself in the third or first person in your dialogue?) and I think it presses all the right buttons where potential clients are concerned.
I particularly like the overall colour scheme and the USA Topcoat highlight on the frontpage - I hope you can integrate future projects just as ably!
Nice job, son. Good luck.

detritus, I appreciate your constructive criticism.
I kind of see what you're saying as far as the header goes... I like it that way so I probably won't end up changing it. I definitely hear you about the photo though... Just bought a new slr camera and will get a new/better pic up soon. I thought it'd be neat for people to see the other designs in the blog, but I do see your point. Yes, the contact page should use some work... although this page is more about function than form. Once I'm done doing the writeups for the projects (as you see only a few are there), I will go for a redesign/revision of this page.
