Website Review and Suggestions

**Sneakyheathen** · 03:54 PM

I did a redesign on my portfolio. (EDIT: I put it up on the main site now.)
Here's the link: http://www.deadlyclever.com. HONEST feedback appreciated!

I think you have a very nice design. Nice and simple and very well implemented.

Id give it 5 stars

This is pretty nice, lovely logo. My only suggestions would be upping the text size a bit and making the thumbnail of the India Shaan a cropped picture to show more detail and give a slightly better look at the logo you did for that site.

Oh, you should probably drop your current MSN handle from the homepage if you're really concerned with the "professional" moniker... just as you wouldn't want an email like hotboi_2009@hotmail.com on a resume... just sayin'

@Mr. B
Thanks for the compliments and feedback.

I think you're right, I'll take down the IM information. As for the thumbnail, I'll probably just include the logo in the graphic design section. It's not as amazing as it looks :P

There's too much white! Plus we need to distinquish between header and body!
Secondly I don't think using a serif font would work as body copy on the web, maybe as a title or in print, but definitely not on the web; gives me a headache trying to read.

Also the design seems very square and blocky and needs more depth created through the use of drop shadow and gradient.

Very plain and boring. Nice idea, bad design.

Keep up the work; hope you succeed in the future.

I like it very much, but it needs a bit more to it.

@Vivid
Usually serifs don't work, but I think the live layout does okay in that respect. As far as 'too much white,' I added a color to the sidebar to distinguish more. I'm not sure about logo placement. Maybe I'll actually encompass the entire thumbnail area in a light blue for a contrast? I appreciate the honest feedback though.

@dev
thanks for the comments!

Hello,

Thats a very nice design. It's simple, clean and extremely professional. I really like your header / banner how you have the wings on both sides. I really like the "DeadlyClever" text - what text is that by the way? Great job keep up the nice work

I really like this. Great job Sneaky, really. You can take this to heart or not, because relentless, I love everything. The only thing I'm not fond of is the font choice for the logo. The wings on the side and that font just don't match for me. It still works though, so heck, keep it. Great job.

Nice, simple, right to the point. What every portfolio should have at least a bit of.

The wings are just a vector image and the font is called KarabinE. I think I might change the logo font, though I really like it. Thanks for all of the feedback!

i really like the design really simple and clean, and the logo is really match to the design....the color scheme is quite nice also!

@john
Thanks for the feedback!

I tried removing the footer bar to create more of an "open" feel.
