Re: FN-FORUM: Problems with own site...

Andrew,

The navigation leaves a bit to be desired (your site portfolio should
be very prominent at the very least). The images are a bit random, and
look tacked on. One easy way to make everything look coherent might be
to colourise the images to match your site, and possibly put the
poetry in a nice font over the top.

Try and get customer comments, relevant images (e.g. screenshots) and
fill any gaps in the content with those. Remember that one of the
primary functions of your site is to sell your services to casual
browsers.

I'd also cut the CV out, imho it doesn't look to professional, most
clients don't really care, if they want it they will ask.

Hell, now i'm going to have to find some time to work on my own site..
