Okay ... I like it -- it isn't amazingly influencial to the point where it changes how I design or build websites (but how many sites are?); so you know what I mean by that. It is a good looking site and looks as though it represents your personality (outside observation, since I don't know much about you; but I know a lot about your potential client base).

Ask yourself, is this design the design your clients would want? I don't know if that is the best approach, but I have found it a very successful technique within my own freelancing and with nclud. It is hard getting potential clients to your site, but remember, the site itself is a portfolio piece -- your largest (and the one the client will interact with most).

I don't like how the left column stays consistent throughout. For example, on your portfolio section, it is as though the portfolio is taking backseat to that left column content (that seems wrong to me). At first glance, I didn't even realize the content in the left most blue changes (b/c the dimensions and placement are soooo consistent throughout).

Home, About and Contact seem as though they can be one page (from how you have it laid out now).

I do like the use of white space and the colors (blue is over-done, god knows I use it to death, but clients love it). Your font choice is nice and the non-black text is a good choice in my opinion -- makes it breathe and read nicer in the context of design.

I hope that helps somewhat. It looks great, be proud of it for sure!! Great work!

Your code behind is very nice and very clean.

No problem. I would try and clean that logo up a bit. It looks a little choppy around the edges (definitely created in Photoshop -- or non-vector based application). Even if you have to pay some freelancer $50 to do it for you, no shame in that. We are web people, we don't need to be masters of it all. But it is your brand and it is going to make more and more sense to have a slick vector version of that logo (for business cards and such).

Good luck!
