Really ? I like it - The design is simple, not over bearing and not heavy
on over-detail.
Ironically enough, your domain WHOIS points to a New York address, yet the
site look is distinctly Canadian
(Maple leafs) - Personally, I really
like that, but then again, I'm Canadian
One thing I would change, in your biography, the sentence:
"Ever since 1998, I've been interested in creating webpages."
Maybe it's just me, but saying that you design "web pages" for a living
seems overly simple - It's never about creating just a page any more, but
more of communications strategies, tools and public relations abilities.
Just my opinion, of course
Overall, though, I like the design. (Of course, as a perl programmer
without an aesthetic bone in his body, I *wish* could design something nice
like that - I do better with graphs, tables and data output
