    Hi Julio,

    i want to start out by saying this site looks fantastic. I think its got a cool grungy look to it, but is also not too messy.

    Very clean look and very well executed.

    Here is the only thing i think NEEDS help

    1. Weird spacing in the header. especially the navigation. Add some more padding under the navigation, also I think there should be a portfolio or gallery page, since i dont exactly know where to click to check out his stuff.

    Here are some of my ideas:

    1. Make the images on the front page black and white (or have them tinted similar colors as the background, then when you rollover them, the semi-transparent bar floats up to he top and the image behind goes full color.
    2. The Read More arrow needs some work. It looks really boring and weird compared to the rest of the site. Also the color seems to really drop off near the bottom, purhaps adding some headers with a cool orange paint swipe would bring some color the the bottom.

    Also, this is just and after thought, but the colors used seem just a tad girly to me. I dont know if im the only one, but. the pastel colors make me think of a girl. :|

    although just by switching the colors a little bit you should be fine.

    Good luck!
