i like the design da concept of your portfolio. nice work
keep it up
for a flash portfolio it is very quick online. thats very important for users.

I assume English isn't your first langauge. The sentence "The devil inside is already giving me the grin" actually makes no sense in English, although the general idea comes across. I don't know if that's important to you, but it distracted me so I missed the more important message of your page, which is that you're a great designer! Something to think about.

What is the point of the religious symbols in your design? I'm curious. Is this going to be part of your Web site's purpose? Otherwise, some potential clients might find these uses to be offensive. Maybe you want to self-select for clients who wouldn't be offended by more "out there" design work; if so, that's certainly one way to do it. A more positive approach mmight be more rewarding, though. That's something only you can decide.

In general, I like your design, the Renaissance palette, and the way you've incorporated it into a simple background, more in keeping with other parts of your site that I remember looking at a few days ago. As darkprint has already pointed out, it's great that the site downloads so fast, although just on this one page. I remember the rest of your site being a little slow. Do watch for that.

Thank you for your input. I was actually thinking about changing the front page, because the message was a bit too personal, probably to a more positive message as you suggested.

Just curious about one thing: is it the syntax/grammar of that sentence or is it the context/idea/message that doesn't make sense? (you were right about that English is not my first language, by the ways) It's a personal message so I understand that it's the context that may not make much sense to other people.

Anyways, I'm changing the first page for sure.

Thanks.

NRG, I think Zagadka's line, "the devil inside is already giving me the grin" could be interpreted many ways; thus, the confusion. I wouldn't have interpreted it as you did, so now there are even more reasons to refine the syntax.

Zagadka, it is indeed the syntax (sentence structure) that's the problem. Do you mean that you feel devilish (that means wicked, but not really evil) inside, which makes you happy, makes you grin? Or are you saying the devil (existing perhaps within your Web site) is grinning at you for being such a wickedly wonderful designer? Or do you mean something else? What do you mean by "devil," for starters? Do you mean devil as in djinn; i.e., something supernatural but sometimes actually helpful? That's not what the word devil means in English, so there could be the problem right there. Perhaps if you said what you mean in different words, we could figure out how you could phrase it so it comes across clearly to Anglophones.

It might be better, as you suggest, to choose a more positive message. Using "devil" with the Jewish Star of David, the inverted Christian cross, the dismembered baby doll etc., seems to place your site into a specific sort of cult environment. If that's not your intention, then you definitely need to re-think some of those elements.

I sure hope you can work out these little communication difficulties, because the design is really cool, and I want to see you make it work for the widest possible audience.

great site, love the dynamics and the work inside! very very good job.
Oh, just one thing, the first image seems kind of obscure, as well as the devil inside one... if you're using your site for commercial purpose, I would rethink putting those two images in there, some clients may not feel them, you know what I mean? Maybe for the homepage make some cool type work with your name, or something. awesome job!!!! congrats!!!

really wow! stunning! :)

Thanks. Now it's officially open, and the real work begins, i guess, promoting and sending out emails and stuffs.

It looks really stunning. I wish i could just find the time to finish my own site, it has been saying coming soon since feb....

Good luck! :)
