I'm curious about the linked site above. I don't get samples of work at all off that one, but maybe they only want clients to see their work.


my step mom is a Certified Meeting Planner and she put her home phone on her website. never an issue. If you have concerns tee up a secondary biz line and publish it. it's a great way for people to reach out and get a feel for how you relate to their proposed work.

also they have voice mail services for like super cheap

anyway I think that is wonderful that you've moved on putting that all together it takes much effort and hard work.

Yeah, no phone number, but if you had a maildrop/office or email at least (and to prevent spam, either post the email as a .jpeg or image file that's not easily scanned by bots, or use the format notcase at domain dot com.

You can't look at the portfolio on that designer's page unless you have a client log in, but I like that he has multiple images on the home page but it still isn't too busy. I just want to see more of your work with less effort....:)

Carry on.

(1) Like!

(2) The copyright text at the bottom of the homepage is nearly illegible for me (Mac OSX 10.5.8, Safari 5.0). I would say the text is a smidgeon too small, if it's not just my browser.

(3) Your work makes such wonderful use of batik-palette color, it makes me wonder if there is a background color (for negative space) that is more complimentary to your work than minimalist white. As it is it's so white that I found it relieving that it dimmed to gray when the popup windows are up. Again, I know nothing about web design and it might be my browser.

Hate to break it to you but the GP wasn't talking about your painting. :eek:

Hank asks you to please befriend him on Facebook and you lack the good sense to decline.

I have enough cash to do slightly better than that. But yeah, one has to wonder whether maybe a shack on an Brazilian beach or something isn't the way to go.

There isn't anyone who I would think of as an enemy, which makes things a bit easier.

They finished second in a qualifying group that included South Korea, Saudi Arabia, Iran and the UAE. People might have expected Iran to do better.

It is so sad that you must defend yourself by emphasizing your own lack of achievement. Not the boss of IT indeed.

Keep working. We have faith in you.
