looks nice, clean. might as well delete the comments_template call in that theme since you've got comments turned off.

The idea is to let the work do the talking.

Hey Danny
In regards of the site, I think you did a good job, its fast, simple and to the point. Big images let the work speak for itself.In regards to the work itself. (and I mean this in the best way) I think you should consider getting a camera and shooting the work instead of the photoshop/ perspective thing. Nothing wrong with doing 3d mockups but I think some of the perspectives are a bit off.
Actual photographs will do wonders for your work.
Hope that helps and congrats on the new site.

Nice and simple, would like to know more about your role in each project, maybe a little info down the bottom. Also would lose the " a bit of a design w****r, " from the info section.
- Agreed..especially since technically it would be w***e. Unless he was going for design water.stoplying
- Totally. Rewrite bio, please.luckyorphan

This might sound a bit arrogant but where are you based?

Cheers. I hear you about the perspective thing. I'm going to change those images to a more straight forward, shot from above perspective.

had a quick glance and i like it.
There are a lot of sites with gridded images of project thumbnails, but thats because it works so well. simple and concise.
however when viewing a project i have no idea what you did. It just says "filed under [xxx]". I (and im sure prospective employers) would like to know what you personally did.
nice site dude.
- Yes. More specific info on your contributions, please.luckyorphan

You have no section entitled work. This is bad usability/findability, especially since you are expecting them to find the very feint arrows at the bottom to learn to scroll through your work. For a moment your vignettes didn't load and I thought you only had a home and about you section.
- i.e what happens when someone says "ok lets send this to my resources person" and they copy paste the about me page. then the next person starts lostcannonball1978
- section. then the next person starts yoru site off lostcannonball1978
