Whoa, it looks real clean and polished! Literally!
But maybe you've lost too much of your flava?

Maxjia In reply to DarkClone [2009-12-17 19:17:20 +0000 UTC]
nah I am ok with this kind of flava
This is more me actually. I LOVE clean and polished lines and sites. I can work within clean. Random freaks me out. The old site was more random. I wanted to make it look pro. I need to work more on the code for it though.
And for now my laptop is gone for repairs and i am going crazy without it, coz I have so much work to do still on it. Not look wise, but code wise.

Wow! It definitely wakes a person up!
Love the colors and style of the background and the grungy effects. Layout is great, simple and very much organised. The fact that you've decided to keep it all on one page is a great.
From the start, what bothers me though, max, is the drop-shadow effects you did for the buttons. It feels a little... amateurish? I would tone down the drop shadow's blur a little more for your name as well since it starts to make it difficult to see on screen. But maybe it's just a personal opinion,
Your portfolio is lovely and has a nice mixture of works. I really would be surprised if your didn't get a job after your client see this website,

Thank you. I appreciate your input. I have been staring at the title for so long. I knew something was off, just couldn't quite put my finger on it. So thanks. I wanted to give the name a 3-D effect because I like the two tone color on it, I'll try to make it some other way in 3-D then.
I might just flatten the menu bar as well. I think the shadow behind the section titles is enough.
"amateurish" - that's what I am always afraid of. I will work on something for so long that I can't tell anymore after a while. I need to distance myself.

One of the greatest benefits of time is the luxury of taking that time to step back and returning a while later to re-assess your work. A fresh perspective gives the artist/designer/creator to improve things that he/she didn't even know needed improvement,
Amateurish is really just a word to describe what a person would regard as over-done. At least that's how I used it to describe your choice of effect. Drop shadow has to be very carefully used and controlled. It's one effect that can, very quickly, be amateurish.

I went to Romania for 10 days to visit old friends and relatives. And now I am looking for a job. It's a weird feeling being done and not having anything to do yet. Can't wait to find a job.
How are you? How's work going for you?

Yay! You look gorgeous! The hat, the hair!! Those lips!
But tired smile though... or is that just your smile?
Yay again!

Maxjia In reply to DarkClone [2009-01-27 16:57:13 +0000 UTC]
Wow, thanks . You are such a flirt.
We switched the hats in between the shots so it is an awkward smile coz it was shot really fast so that we wouldn't loose the poze.

DarkClone In reply to Maxjia [2009-01-28 17:52:57 +0000 UTC]
Oh really?
Ohhhhh... so that's more of an awkward smile than a tired one... I see... btw, very cool hats! I'll probably look gay if I was to wear it but still, nice!

Maxjia In reply to DarkClone [2009-01-28 23:26:42 +0000 UTC]
lol, well first it's only one hat. It's the same hat. I photoshopped us together with me wearing it once and her wearing it next.
And second, you would look gay coz it's a woman's fedora. I am sure with the men's fedora you would look quite stylish. Although I have no idea how you look coz you never posted a photo of yourself as ID. (*hint, hint*)

DarkClone In reply to Maxjia [2009-01-31 03:04:30 +0000 UTC]
Oh!! Wow, you photoshopped yourselves? Damn!
Fedora... whatever that is... I'm gonna check it out!
Haha... I'll post a image of myself when I gather up enough vanity! Gimme a few minutes. Jking! But you ladies definitely look stylish!

Maxjia In reply to DarkClone [2009-01-31 04:54:30 +0000 UTC]
Thanks
Yeah it was fun. We both wanted to wear the hat so we took turns wearing it and made a whole photo shoot out of it.
Oh come on, it's DA, everyone has a dab of vanity in them enough to post a photo of themselves

Hi. I'm studying for two midterms for next week, and at the same time trying to figure out why my mother is giving me the silent treatment. Other than that it's all peachy.
You?

Ah, the silent treatments... horrible things they are. Except when it's me giving them,
What papers?
Me, just finished a few freelance projects. Can finally take a good break, hopefully get on with my personal works and start posting!

Maxjia In reply to DarkClone [2008-10-19 13:39:53 +0000 UTC]
Papers? Oh you mean the midterms, one for Biomedical Instrumentation, for which I keep thinking why haven't I dropped that course when I had the chance, and Civil engineering Transportation course, which should be alright.
Yeah breaks are an awesome thing, I wish I had a break now. I talked to my godmother from Germany and she said universities just had a week long break. Ugh I want that!!!
