Me next! Me next! What do y'all think of my website? Yeah, the URL is kind of lengthy, but that's what happens when you use a friends server :whistle:

Nice concept, the navigation was a little obscure, but not bad since there were directions. I was fully expecting to not like it, but since there are only a few sections I didn't mind. The digital illustration pixelation really is quite bad. Are they being resized in Flash? I can't think of any reason that they would look like they do outside of that. I'm impressed though, nice work.

Thank you very much! Yeah, I'm annoyed with the pixilation in the Digital Illustration section...For some reason Flash is resizing them...I'm working out the bugs now. I scaled the images to fit, but they're just making me mad!! I have it figured out though, it's just taking me some time to update ;)

nice to see an attept at something new! Where are the hobos! Why can't we lanuch the web sites? It would be cool if you could click the biker for some sort of Easter Egg.

Some of the sections were too big, 3megs.....

Thanks! I appreciate your comments. Yeah, I'm still working on this puppy, I'd like to add some hidden things here and there. Definitly get some hobos slobbing across the screen ;) I'm working on the size too...breaking it up a big. Some of the images I have in there are a bit too big. I think the section that you're referring to is probably the 'Painting' section. I have a ton of paintings that I've done, so I should probably break that up a bit. I've been trying to think of a better way to display my pieces of art. I don't really like having them come up in a box.

perhaps the boxes could come out of different windows in the city..? I would try to keep the city landscape scene going. nice job

That's a good idea! I was wanting to incorporate something with the rest of the city. I don't want it to just be a backdrop, I want it to be interactive and have easter eggs hidden throughout. I need to play around with that.

I really like it, but the paintings section definitely needs work.
If you insist on having the drawing first before the painting actually appears, please please make it go faster.
Also, the image of Drew Cary has no place in your portfolio unless you painted it from life. You have some really really great pieces, that you don't need celebrities obscuring your work.
