Alan O' Connor :: Web/Graphic Design Portfolio

Ive just redesigned the site. And I am currently looking for a job.
Have a look plz and give us some feed back.

thanks

Alan

nice site, nice coding, nice design well done! the only thing it's missing is a contact form, maybe there is room for putting in a footer with one on it?

Really nice.

I agree some clearer / easier-to-find contact options wouldn't go amiss.

The 'Blog' link at the top is a) a little hard to see and b) doesn't go to a blog (just reloads the homepage).

The little 'Ai' and 'Ps' icons have that magnifying effect enabled, but don't do anything special when clicked. Same with the picture on the Welcome slide.

All good apart from that. Really nice design and implementation, valid xHTML. I likes it.

Who do you expect to get work from? As a experienced web user I knew my way around after a bit of trial and error but are others going to even try?

Its a nice design but jumping away from normal navigation might hurt a little.

Eh question lad?

What if I don't have JS on or I am say a search engine or using a screen reader.

And you have your email and phone as an image but bots will never get to it because it's hidden behind your JS based nav.

Fair points... but all the content is actually contained within the one file - hidden through CSS until called by the javascript by the looks of things. Turn of styles (which I imagine.. not sure.. is how screen readers and bots look at a page?) and you see all the content (a few times over, for some reason).

Seems like it should be possible to load an additional style sheet that resets the visibility on the hidden elements if the viewer does not have javascript enabled.

Ah well I spotted I only disabled JS to see how it worked I presumed that a Ajax call was pulling the content but with css off too it leaves it in a gray area.

That much hidden content repeated on a page could be seen as black hat by G.

heres a better question for u...

Do you know of any body in our industry that has java turned off?
As for seo and search engines... pff. overrated. what do you reckon the real reason was for posting was don't tell me thoses Londoners are having hat effect on you :P

I like it a lot... it's different, again I am always reserved to comment, but maybe just make the navigation a tiny bit more obvious

If you have to explain the navigation then it's probably not working IMHO
