So I suppose I am ready to post my site for review... SIGH! Be gentle folks. I am getting ready to graduate and trying to launch into full-time freelancing...*crosses fingers*-- we will see.

Good simple design. The navigation is fairly easy, and nothing is overpowering. There are some Javascript errors on your Portfolio section though, it seems your functions are missing their semi-colons.

You might also want to separate the imageover links too, maybe by having small thumbs or something besides the text. Having them too close gives rise to pointing accidents

. And lastly, since you're already utilizing CSS, you could put them all into a single and separate CSS file, and replace your tables for DIVs.

Overall however, it's great. I also like your Campus Leadership Council logo.

I like the illustrations and some of the logos. Simple, yet there's something about it that I can't quite put my finger on. Anyway, good job on that one!

A good or a bad thing, that you can't put your finger on...? Just curious.

Thanks for the remarks NRAK--- will get on it right away.

Good design. Interesting choice of font.

I would make the navigation more clear. It is actually quite difficult to see. It is kind of difficult to understand why the links change when the mouse moves over. Sort of confusing too.

The site looks very small if you have a high resolution...

All in all very good, keep it up.

I adjusted the mouseovers-- switching them and hopefully making the navigation more clear. I'm playing with the idea of words and type throughout the site. Hence the defintions on everypage and the synonym mouseovers for navigation. Thanks for the notes guys, its always good to get perspective.

I like the layout, it's crisp, I enjoyed the definition pop ups on the words, I havent seen that on a site

I have to agree with ZacH on the size, i love my high reso, but it seem a lil small on that end.

It took me a little bit to see the links to check the portfolio... maybe a coloration of some kind would help draw the eyes over there....

Nice clean site. Im loving the lime green, im not sure about the color choice of the maroon though, it alsmot seems a little to dark to go with the green maybe choose sometihng a bit brighter, maybe orange, yellow or blue.

I do agree with Zack on the buttons changing text when the mouse rolls over, a little hard to understand..
