UX is your specialty but you have no screen caps of your portfolio next to each project name.

If I want an overview of your work I need to click through each link, instead of simply scrolling through the page and then clicking on what I’m interested in. No offence, but that’s some poorly thought out UX right there.

What good is it that it ‘runs ultra fast’?

Thank you for the feedback! Do you have examples of screen caps you like? I had considered this but decided to take it out because of wanting to keep to the old school terminal aesthetic. Plus since I do a lot of programming, I figured linking to the site to see how it works might be more useful than simply a screen grab, since I'm not the one usually doing the design (which would make sense at that point).

User experience and performance go hand-in-hand. Users get frustrated if a site loads slowly or doesn't function. So I made sure to have a site that does those things (plus web performance is one of my specialties).

It is a strange coincidence that I was just on a poet's site today who goes by "caconrad". http://caconrad.blogspot.com/

Your link is well done. The blue and gray hearken to the Old Web.

My suggestion is to tone down the first red and blue backgrounds.

I don't know - I like the colors. They feel alive.
