Almost done with my portfolio!

Thank you, it means a lot.

Your portfolio looks very bright, I like it.
Several ideas, that may help:

  • I would vertically align top sidebar text to the middle or make links the same padding with logo.
  • It would be more comfortable to click logo and go back to the top.
  • These dots series http://joxi.net/E2pz1xOs7YBPRr are used for content galleries. I’ve tried to click it several times and nothing happened, which is not good UI.

Good luck and happy coding!

thanks for the input, you are not the first to mention the dots so they have to go!

Nice design, looks good!

As others have mentioned, you should definitely reconsider the color scheme.

Hi Chris,

First of all, I love your branding direction, very unique…and talking about brand a couple of things:
1- If you’re aiming for Web Dev / Front End put it below your name as an sub-title
2-If you’re looking for remote, freelance work keep it as it is, otherwise, try to add where you’re located to improve your SEO
3- If you edited your photos, add a skill section, a lot of Wed Design has to do with images, if you add the bonus of knowing Illustrator, photoshop an any other tool, you’re saving your client /employer time and money by being a one man show

Technical:
1- Consider which is your MAIN section and use that html tag to make your HTML more semantically correct, as it is there is little distinction between sections and divs.
2- Your nav has low contrast so it might be difficult to read for color blind people, why not make it white.

Both things help you be more WAI which is an standard that most companies need to fullfil, so is not bad to start getting into the habit of using it. https://www.w3.org/WAI/standards-guidelines/evaluation/
