    Hmmm, Lindsay what to say... There's a bit of work to do...

    I'll just list them out:

    Home Page:

    1. Logo - This isn't that appealing in fact it looks like it was done in MS paint, the name is good it's mainly the fonts, that I have an issue with.
    2. Background Image - it's certainly edgy
    3. Colors - these aren't really that great they work but they also clash - use this tool http://pictaculous.com/
    4. Typography - Headings / Nav font is pretty ugly try verdana / helvetica
    5. CAPS - don't use them

    Portfolio Page

    1. Blue Link box - this needs to be hidden in the CSS

    2. Order of Portfolio - Need to look at what you want to focus on, I would suggest grouping the likes of the Photoshop / Illustrator / InDesign and Photography into a bundle, or have WEB / PRINT / LOGOS etc

      Contact Page

    3. Needs a Captcha - if you don't have one you will get spammed to death

    4. Footer - where it go?

    Overall it has legs, add some more design technique do a bit more research and get a little more up to date on the design and then I think it will begin to walk.

    Good Luck!
