Well, as some of you guys might know I'm a freelance graphic designer. And, I was looking at my old site a few days ago and was thinking to myself, hmmmm kinda boring. So, I worked night and day for 2 days and I got the site looking clean, simple, and has a lot more of my work on it. Let me know what you guys think of it. And, im sure you will like the first logo on the "logos" page.

Heres the link:

That looks great! Never saw the old one, but this one looks awesome.

I should also add that I knew you were good, but I didn't realize you made a career of it... And to me that's the coolest part!

Thank you very much. I have a lot of fun doing it. Im actually surprised people pay me to play with photoshop and illustrator all day. lol. Dont tell my old college professors I said that, they take design wayyyy to serious

Art is great man! My grandfather was a designer in his day, but he used art to design computer chips! I spent the morning with him today (because my car was in service, and we did some art melting crayons! Haha different media but art is art and if you love it, do it

deltakilo · 04-25-2012, 06:31 PM

So well done, thank you for making your website a wonderful place! Compared to the crapshoots that people consider a website nowadays.

Those logos are quality work!

Ringo64 · 04-25-2012, 07:19 PM

Graphics of the website are pretty good. Usability of it, not so much.

I'm a web designer, web developer, UX engineer, etc... and am quite picky

sounds fun, we had to work a lot of mediums in art school. always a blast. I remember a project i did with 2 liters of pepsi and a subwoofer.
