Been reading the feedback here and on my blog over the last few hours, and I have to say I agree with most of it. This was intended to be an initial concept that was going to be iterated on again and again, so I guess I have plenty to do to make this better!

I think you're missing the point here SeoxyS. I just put an initial concept out there for everyone to see and maybe get a flavour of how a redesign/reskinning of HN may look. I understand there's a lot to be desired and I haven't sat down yet and put the time into fleshing everything out properly, hence this will probably be iterated on a thousand times.

I appreciate the feedback, and will definitely take it into consideration.

This is much better. Get rid of the superfluous numbering and put in the comments there.

Peter, good points -- I'll add the email address with the contact form instead of getting rid of it totally. Going to be adding a case study page that each piece of work links to, that has larger screenshots, more detail and depth on what work was done by myself etc.

Thanks for your input! :D

Cabose, taken on board your feedback. I definitely need to accompany the work with a case study page detailing what work was done for each project. In terms of keeping everything on one page, the initial goal was to keep it a one-pager (or at least try to), but I guess I'll need to iterate on that.

Good points Daniel. Definitely valid - I actually re-considered the "Spam my inbox" tag a lot, and didn't come up with anything better so stuck with it for the time being. I'll definitely be re-thinking that.

Overall, seems to be a big hate towards contact forms -- I don't quite understand why as maybe I want a bit more information to qualify the contact (like info on where they found out about me, or budget)? Just giving an email address doesn't allow for this.

Looking for feedback/reviews on my new portfolio design from the HN community!

Better than relying on the Fed to make the right decisions - "quantitative easing", huh?

The use of common stock photography just makes it even better lol
