    Hey Brian !
    A decent website, although I have a couple of small points:

    - When you roll over the word 'Bio' in the menu bar it gets sliightly bigger. But the other buttons don't do that. Its a small detail, I know, but if you are making a website that represents you why not make it perfect ?

    - That graphic on the right on the Home Page in my opinion looks very unprofessional and well, I think you can put something better ! Same with 'Bio' page. I think a simple Black & White picture of yourself will be much more effective and striking.

    - On the contact page the contact email text is done as a picture i.e. a potential client cannot just copy and paste the email into his letter. It creates a small bit of hassle for them and you want their opinion of you to be perfect !

    Project work:
    - Save our tankfield website. The photos in the 'Pics' section don't open spot on in the middle, on Google Chrome at least. They really distort the page while open.

    - 3D Kitchen. No critique as such, I really love it. It looks like an intro to some horror movie, it just seems so eerie :D Maybe put some text at the end for what its meant to be ?

    Anyways, keep up the good work !

    Thanks for the feedback il take those points on board. Il prob make some changes once college is over and I have time. :)

    I herd it was better to use an image for an email address to prevent bots finding your email and spamming it. That's what I was told by my teacher anyways don't know if its true?:confused:

    Thanks for the feedback :)

    It is a possibility, yes. Although 95% of spam would be filtered as spam anyway. But I heard that writing your email in the form info(at)brianmacdesigns.com can do the trick. Not sure though.
