[rafikiwilliams]

hey guys, just made a freelance type website for myself. nothing fancy, all done on iweb. need some input

not bad, but 2 things: change both the large photo of you on the home page and the dark photo on the about me page. Both look less than professional and just not as good as the other photos on your site.

Otherwise yeah, looks great!

 

[rafikiwilliams]

thanks, ill look for some better pictures!

get your own domain name.

Also kill those apple watermarks. You can just click and delete.

Those are much better choices, good call

It's actually a very clean design. I second taking off the "made on a mac" apple logo. Great work though.

Overall a nice clean site.

I would agree that you should get your own domain.

On the contact us page all I see is the links to your social networking pages. I don't know if you did (and it just isn't rendering in firefox) or if you don't have a way for someone who doesn't want to go to facebook etc. to contact you.

thanks for the feedback everyone. I myself wasnt sure about the apple watermarks, but thanks to your input i know to get rid of them.

As for the domain name. I'm planning on it.


Also for the contact page, im probably gonna provide contact info, and also im trying to find an html form that they can fill out to email me directly from the site...

*shudder* @ the 'Made on a Mac' just lose that, its nothing speacial about using a particular platform to create a web site on.

Other than that its fairly consistent and nice.

EDIT:// I know nothing about iweb, so I don;t know what you can/can't edit

alright, i just changed the contact me section... any comments on that? ill put some kind of short video there on the right.

 

[MikeWilkinson]

The large quicktime video just shows a still of a stream and doesn't play anything for me on the portfolio page and the contact page. i'm using FF3 on a mac.

looks good... i would add your resume to it though

 

[rafikiwilliams]

yea arges, im still working on a new show reel, and something clever for the contact page...

resume... how did i leave that out...??

Here's a quick question for you - where did you get your widgets? Do they come with iWeb '09 or are they free and available from somewhere that I missed?

*EDIT*
Answered my own question.
