First turn off... the ads
second turn off the additional set of ads at the bottom...
third turn off the green on those buttons... they're a bit harsh on the eyes when hovered over
fourth turn off, the over usage of accordion menus

Why is web design centered and photoshop and skills left justified?

and most importantly WHY THE ADS????

I think it looks pretty nice. One thing that I've gotten away from is window display for images and snap shots. They just tend to always load slow. Could be the size of the images, but none the less it just bugs me. I couldn't find a solution myself so I eliminated it.
I see you created another design site which may be a better fit for the ads. This portfolio type site may be better served without.

Thanks for the feedback, really appreciate it. The ads are there for just one reason: It's generating more money than I expected, so I just left them there :) Do you have a better idea instead of using accordion menu on the "about" page? Cos I ran out of creativity when I put it there!

The left justified "web design" thing is kinda a big problem, I have no idea why it's doing that! It's centered in both Firefox and Opera but all the other browsers works perfectly (I blocked the site for IE-users though).

Thanks, appreciate it! Yeah, agree with you about the images, I guess I chose a very slow pirobox, do you have any suggestions except completely leave out image effects?

For the about page I would just put it all out there, or just make a downloadable pdf file of your resume, that's what I did, it works great cause then if you don't have a resume handy you can print one up anywhere.

I have visit your site. If you wish, you should be improve your main page, especially in header navigation and position. Also, ads placement is should be change the location.

Your webdesign accordian h3 tag is being pushed over because of the margin:-15px... change it to -13px and that should fix it. Just tested in firebug, chrometools.

I see you fixed the home tab...

So whats the deal with the photoshop and welcome message. Is this being pulled by adwords or something? I also don't know why you are using adwords on this site. There is no way your making money from them... how would you be generating enough traffic and clicks to your portfolio website that would actually generate revenue? I just find it impossible for someone to stumble upon your website and start clicking on ads.

Anyways the reason I ask is because the message it shows me is talking about Mt Rainier which is right where I live which has nothing to do with photoshop, and or where you are from so I don't see it as relevant content in your about and welcome message either haha.

Also why not setup your own email instead of using hotmail... always seems more processional to me. Just my opinion though so...
