    The alien stuff is so awesome! I was wondering for a alien mod on crysis close to the JC's movie.

    make sure to take these "old" crits into consideration as well

    what i really don't like about your site is that it's totally cluttered and mixed with the blog. i mean i'm on YOUR website and yet there's a button titled "Website/Blog" with the most uptodate work of yours.

    in my opinion you should just decide. what do you wanna get out of it ?

    do you want a separate portfolio and a blog ? or you want one site with the two contents merged ?

    "Game Environments, Architectural Visualization, Game Art, Texturing, and Museum" you say you wanna keep that, i say get rid of it. imo you have 3 categories for one topic "Environment Art". i think it's not too well planned.

    i mean you know and already mentioned all the fancy simple layouted portfolios from the forum guys and other artists like the following:

    http://www.brameulaers.com/

    http://www.aarongarcha.net/

    http://jeremylindstrom.com/

    http://www.unlitart.com/index.html

    http://www.mvirks.com/index.html

    i say, go make yourself some simple portfolio layout site like the ones above, where you have the kind of work which represents what you are doing and working on atm and like to do in the future. you are doing level design, texture and prop work ? well show that

    i mean, i don't know what you are doing atm, but your last posted works are all game related and not hipoly cars or MP2-mods.

    and if you have such a portfolio you can post whatever you like on your blog

    *sigh* man i could go on forever

    get rid of guestbook and merge the other categories somehow, e.g. resume and awards and whatnot. the less the better

    to cut a much toooooo long story short. NO MORE FLASH on your portfolio plz

    and get more organization going on - you seem like a messy person - maybe possible contractors may get that impression as well

    That's some really good and valuable feedback!

    Thanks man, I'll definitely take it all into account when I finally decided to redesign this whole thing!

    Ok here it is, after a few weeks struggling with the design and wordpress, my portfolio and new devblog are now live!

    I'm still filling out a few descriptions for the screenshots, so bear with me. Nevertheless, hope you like it and post some feedback if you will.

    Great Folio. Only thing that bothers me are the three different typographies in the top left corner.

    Solid stuff! Like that you took the time to write what your contributions in each shot are.

    Seems like an easy to browse site too, only thing I could think of was that the images loaded a bit slow for me... But that's more likely to be a problem with my connection speed

    Work looks great!

    lol same, thats why I was gunna comment that you couldn't make a site like that for a design role, the lack of text would kill you.

    Click on the "i" on screenshots.

    Great content there my friend, awesome!

    Aye, like Corwin said, click on the "i" button next to the magnifying glass icon. It will take you to a dedicated page with full description of what my duties were on the given screenshot. (If it's empty, bear with me, i'm still filling out those, so there will be plenty of text to read if you want)
