Hi Everyone!, I would like to hear your opinion's on this website i am creating for myself as i continue to progress, i have always done ones about others but never stopped to think of doing my own personal website for personal use & business if needed, i have always enjoyed simple/clean designs so please give me your opinion it would mean a lot!

I know their is a lot to do, but i would like to show off the first Home design so far i have completed and will continue to update this Post as much as i can as i progress to completing the design.

The login is similar to the TTG mockup, personally, I would at least change the scheme a little more there if you are doing separate mock designs. The simplicity is a nice touch, just not really a fan of the massive lettering; and or the underlined link section, a slight dimming on a hover over would be a much better look then simple underlining.

Good job on this one as well.

EDIT: I could see the gradient going well with a lowpoly backing.

You agree I wasn't to sure on the underling, yeah I agree I couldn't make my mind up of the stock background with a gradient as sometimes 2d landscapes look good but I think I have used to too much,

Thanks a lot again!

The layout is good, but I'm not a huge fan of the fonts, it's best to stick to web fonts when designing sites like this in my opinion, otherwise it looks odd. But I'm a sucker for the "less is more". What would be better, and I'm not sure if it's like this or not since it's just an image. Would be instead of buttons linking you to another page where you show your work and/or contact form. Have a smooth scroll to the desired div tag.

Are you designing this in Photoshop then plan on making ir for real, or is it just for the fun of making one?

But overall, it's not bad. Apart from the login bit, which makes no sense to me xD

Honestly, I have no idea why I did that haha either now I think about it, I knew their was something of with the design and I think that the font was that! Thank you.

Yeah my plans are to build the website in photoshop to get an overall layout so I can see, I am thinking of creating the website to be a horizontal website instead of taking you to different tabs that It's all Fluid on one screen

No problems, Horizontal websites can work, but you really need to know what you're doing. Now i don't know your coding knowledge so you may already know that. But if you want my advice on that, making a single page vertical smooth scroll is both easier and more appealing to most. It's also easier to adapt to mobile design.

Hmm, good point I actually made one a while back at it caused a lot of issues on mobile devices, the vertical scroll design is a good idea, thanks again, could use you more often haha
