Re: My portfolio Site
It's not viewing right in IE 6.0. Things are overlapping and other things are scrunched together. You may want to try to view it on a friend's computer so you can fix it.

Re: My portfolio Site
Looks really good. Clean and professional, definatly projects a good image of yourself.
Only a few little things, I find that the news on the left looks a little squashed to the side, maybe it needs a bit of padding on the left.
The news drops off the bottom at the left, would be better (IMHO) if the footer could be kept flush to the bottom of the page rather than just the main content.
Im not keen on the numbers on the menu entries.
I think the breadcrumbs should be formatted a little different to the main text, just so they are easeir to identify.
Finally, look at sprinkling a few thumbnails in your portfolio where you list your work.

Re: My portfolio Site
HTML Validation found 40 errors...

Re: My portfolio Site
Like the design, I would get rid of the extra CMS elements like the Top^ link...will make it look like your own build rather than just another template. Other than than the simplist are always the best.
Menu dosnt work in IE7 Beta 3, not a big prob as its not the final release, but using IE6, 7 and Moz at work it is clear that Microsoft is getting it right this time with IE7.

The mentioned element is not allowed to appear in the context in which you've placed it; the other mentioned elements are the only ones that are both allowed there and can contain the element mentioned. This might mean that you need a containing element, or possibly that you've forgotten to close a previous element.
One possible cause for this message is that you have attempted to put a block-level element (such as "" or "") inside an inline element (such as "", "", or "").

The element named above was found in a context where it is not allowed. This could mean that you have incorrectly nested elements -- such as a "style" element in the "body" section instead of inside "head" -- or two elements that overlap (which is not allowed).
One common cause for this error is the use of XHTML syntax in HTML documents. Due to HTML's rules of implicitly closed elements, this error can create cascading effects. For instance, using XHTML's "self-closing" tags for "meta" and "link" in the "head" section of a HTML document may cause the parser to infer the end of the "head" section and the beginning of the "body" section (where "link" and "meta" are not allowed; hence the reported error).

Re: My portfolio Site
hmm, ok, ive just decided turn give ie users text links. The if IE tag works for that. You had your examples of it in the head, but i decided to move it to the content, now it actually displays the text links only for IE users. But for some reason, it still wont display the js menu.
As for the flash menu, does anyone have a good tutorial or plug in on how to make one dynamically, like the css menus?

Re: My portfolio Site
The news sure is in a weird place. Are you sure you even NEED a news section? If you do I'd suggest to make an extra menuitem. On the homepage you have used a slideshow in flash which is ok, however whene the animation is finished it's just a blank screen. I would say it's better to either loop the whole animation or let it end in a background image. I like your photographs btw
