So, I have been on here before. It's been a while, and I started a new account. Anyways, here is my redesigned portfolio. I would be glad to hear the good and the bad.

Thanks.

Way too much white space...

And also light box is erroring up if you click images toward the bottom... I don't really care for it, its way to plain. Find better icons for PDF and DOC just use the new vista icons they look much nicer.

Move the firefox suggestion to the bottom, and don't make your CSS and XHTML look like real links.

it's too blank, if you're going for the minimalist feel, at least make the images bigger or centered:) it looks like you just put them there linearly. lightbox is a bit buggy, and yeah. it could use a bit more work. love the portfolio though:D

Is there anyway that you can get the next button to also move onto the next project? not just the next picture.

I like your V2 better, I’d add the light box to the portfolio section in that version myself.
Some really nice work in your portfolio BTW

Cool, thanks for the critiques. Where is lightbox being buggy? What browser's/platform/display are you all running?

I would run lightbox to connect to all my work, but I figured from a user standpoint that keeping the lightbox focused on each project/section would be more clear. The XHTML/CSS buttons that come from W3C are gross, so I made my own. Should I not have the rollover effect on them?

I wanted the whitespace/simplicity. This is just something where I can have my work/resume online, to show. I want it to be nice, of course, but I don't want it over the top. I'd rather have my work speak for itself, if you get what I'm saying.

And where are these Vista Icons, or do you all know of other icons i could use. I might just create my own.

Thanks.
