    Hey everyone,
    I was just wondering if I could get some feedback on my new design. You can find it here. Be sure to check out the first post, it kind of has something to do with TODC.

    Yeah, it's been going up and down all day. Sorry if you get to it when it's down...

    Hopefully the error will be corrected soon. Also, I recently launched my portfolio at Strength In Style.com, so you can check that out and let me know if you like that too!

    FYI: That site is also on the same server...

    overall, i like it a lot! i usually find dark designs oppressive, but you've done a good job. The only thing I could see to improve is to add some more contrast with the h2s and the navigation. dark-grey on darker-grey doesn't read very nicely. :)

    I love it! The only thing I'm not fond of is your RSS orange box...it's a little too much, you know?

    Fixed up the h2 so its more readable and got rid of the orange box for a more tasteful link in the navigation.
    Keep the suggestions coming, the site looks much better already considering just those two.
    Thanks!

    conartist - The RSS box was a little on the big side, the header can breathe a little more now. I'm gunna throw some orange in there somewhere later, just gotta figure out where. I want it to compliment the blue but not be overwhelming.

    It's very pretty. I would like to see how it would turn out if you tried using some shades on the curly things on the sides. Maybe even some contrast if you're into that kind of thing. Now I think about it, what about split complementary?

    #32ABDA (light red)
    #D9B532 (yellow)

    I'm not sure how that would turn out, but I think it could spice it a bit up without disturbing too much.
