Great job with this site!
It is very engaging and really works considering the type of work you are focused on.
Have you tried other colors for the accent color? Since street art is so colorful and vibrant - the green you chose doesn't seem to fit. It also is getting a little lost in the navigation. Maybe a yellow/gold color? Or magenta/fuchsia?
The only other thought is maybe you don't need the icons next to the white text in the footer. I like the little swash of "paint" under the text, but the icons are makng it a little busy.
I'm interested in what the rest of the site looks like!
It seems like the design is trying to have a grunge theme but also a shiny web 2.0 theme at the same time. I would go with the grunge, make the icons in the bottom drawings or grungy stickers. And the main section is too clean - I like the white space but the cleanliness of it throws me off compared to the rest of the design
I just get the feeling that the clean crisp lines in the nav and the lighter blue area aren't really working with the logo, lines at the bottom, and backgrounds. I also don't feel the animated spray can is really giving me the idea of graffiti, along with the clean fonts.
The valid html and css icons would look better if the line up underneath all of the social networking icons. Plus the top right of the nav looks like it may be slightly out of a grid system since it's the furthest to the right element, but I may be wrong on that.
I agree with what the other reviews are saying.
I think you need to scrap the icons on the headings altogether, they scream clip art at me. I think the social media ones are ok, if a little large.
The green does need pimping up a bit.
Do you need the intro text under the welcome para? That will surely be in the about section. Maybe you could combine the two and shorten it.
The serif font is a little hard to read for me. What if you did the headings in your marker pen style, and the text in the sans-serif font?
I like the can and the grunge BG. But there does seem to be a bit too many mix of styles at the moment.
This design is very simple in places and very busy in others. The footer is quite busy and makes me not even look at it. I would try and make this more consistent, either simplistic or detailed, not both.
Overall you have all of the elements needed for a website...navigation, social media, but it's missing the street look and feel. The 3D can makes me think you do 3D street, which would be cool.
I would use a font thats a little more grungy. Not too funky, but funky enough to be engaging.
Good luck!
For some reason it gives me quite a dark feel.. i.e. it could have more pop. Otherwise, cool footer, the whole piece has this mailchimp feel which is very 2.0 and up-to-date with the trends I guess... good luck with the dope portfolio :D
hey whats up dude man i told you about the what's crackin it sound super ghetto a lot of people will not work with you just because of that alone.
also to much blue dont know where to start looking at first everything is the same color.
work on it alittle more.
It's a simply blue website for me :) but I would only suggest to make the icons you are using now to be a bit smaller, right now it looks pretty big, that's all
I like the menu and the header. Works well. But the content area is too noisy, mixing some different styles. I would clean up the columns on the bottom. The icons doesn`t match in my eyes. Try some cleaner, perhaps only two-colored ones.
I think it looks great. Love the can, i think he is fun and engaging. i would maybe play with header type more since you do not have much more going on. add some color, increase leading. and maybe add some color to links or headers. But i think u did a really good job!
I like the colours used, the overall layout, as well as the icons.
For me however, the main pic does not really relate to the logo (it's more suited to a kid's art project than to a Designer's portfolio site) I find myself looking at it, more than exploring the rest of the site.
Kewl site, none the less!
Your design is so nice and colors too, but what is role of main animal picture here?
