Not trying to piss on your fire. but it's clear you're not the "CSS King" you claim to be on your portfolio. Also, your portfolio is, embarrassingly, a template from HTML5UP: [ Register or Signin to view external links. ]

It's a shame you're using bootstrap - that's a copout for beginners like you and makes new 'designers' fail at actually learning how to build fluid and responsive websites. Which is what you've failed at 100%. CodeAcademy use it because it takes too long and too much more work to actually teach beginners how to build websites properly. Relying on a framework makes you a shit designer.

Some of your sites (example: the BBC one) are static, fixed, not modern at all.

Also, your portfolio says you love programming. You listed HTML, CSS and jQuery. jQuery is not a language, it is a JavaScript library and barely counts as a programming language unless you're sufficient at JavaScript. Also, no-one should call themselves a programmer if they only do one programming language.

I recommend you boy-cott code academy and learn how to learn properly. Sites like codeacademy spawn people who think they are shit because they've copied lines of shit and used tons of shitty frameworks.

The industry has changed for the worse, when I began things like bootstrap and codeacademy didn't exist. It's a shame web design won't be a viable career in around 10 years. I'm happy I ditched it a while back for web and software dev (ditched: made it my freelance occupation). I still do web design but don't expect the field to be alive for very long. It's a dead career now being drowned by web builders, frameworks etc. you can't make a career being a freelance web designer anymore. I recommend you read up on PHP and Node.JS.
