At a glance, it looks alright. But it is really small even when I click on the thumbnail. Maybe upload it at a bigger size so I can really give an opinion.

Thanks!

Looks pretty good but yeah a bigger size would be nice. The top title looks pretty big though.

Thanks,

i suggest removing the black orange gradient on the text at the top and making it either brighter or a solid colour, I find it hard to read :S

Other than that - looks cool!

I like the different categories at the bottom. Looks really nice. Like ardcor said, the top title part should usually be a solid color, it makes it look more professional. I like the wooded design (reminds me of Gino's old portfolio!).

I like this design and the logo you showcased.

Not to be rude or anything, but the grammar at some parts is somewhat off. You might want to fix that before you make it official.

Thanks for posting.

Nice job. I like the wood background and the simplicity of it all. And as mentioned above, check your spelling and grammar.

Only thing I'd like to point at is pointed at several times (both here and on the swedish macforum) - the header. It's too gradient and too huuuge! Diavlo (I fink is the name) is pretty demanding in itself as a font, when it gets so huge it steals all the attention from your work.
