Default Adam Woodhouse Portfolio v2

Ok, I would love some feedback for the general design of my new portfolio. It won't be up for a while, but I really want to be promoting myself as an artist rather than a commercial designer.

God I want to design T shirts full time. lol.

Here is a shot ( No content really, sorry, ) i'm, kinda just showing the header to be honest haha.

The header looks awesome. However, you might want to tone it down a bit and make it smaller. It detracts from the text/portfolio part of the site and it is a bit too low to see in a browser. Just some minor things need to be tweaked, but then it will look GREAT!

Keep up the good work and maybe send me a pm and how you made it.

I thought about making it smaller. It's ony 250px high from top to the border of the content area. I like this large graphic as its mor eof a frame to the site rather than something I'm just slappin on there hahaha.

This is a cropped version. I'll upload a beter one which isn't cropped and you will see what I mean about it not being tooooo high

I don't mind the size of the header as the site itself is simple, clean and compliments the header well. Beautiful design and great colors. Quality stuff mate!

Ya like I said. I like the design part of it, but it is knd of hard to judge how it will lay out in a browser, you know what I mean? I'm sure it will look nice!
