Very smooth design man. Content wise it's pretty straight forward all around. Are you still working on it?

Yeah it needs more stuff. This I guess is a beta version. My more artsy friends helped me do the top buttons and the color matching. because I wanted it blue and to have the buttons. I am dreaming up so sought of header above the buttons not sure yet.

Also the photo page is slap dash and the WoW logo is missing. I don't have time now to fix it.

Nice design, although it's not Web 2.0, Web 2.0 is bringing more user interactivity into web design, just because it has a sexy style doesn't make it Web 2.0 but no-one really knows that, except me, then i get called a geek, all i read was a interview too...

But the site itself is very nicely done, good job man.

cool, very smooth, might want to work on centering it though, it loaded a bit off for me in firefox.

Over all pretty cool. I had a website, but I took it down to change it up. It usually found here:

www.mindlesstechnologies.com

I'm also starting to learn joomla, an opensource cms to setup my moms website for a business she wants to start. I'll post that one when its more than a standard template.

Joomla's pretty sweet for setting up a good website fast. The tricky part is skinning the damn thing! :p

Great personal website. My reccommendation is wait till you build content before going with a portal like joomla or something. What you have is good. Now just build it up a little. Once you start to have trouble fitting everything in then move to a different format. The #1 mistake I see with websites is that they are too big for what they have in them. This makes them awkward and hard to navigate. What does that do? People just get tired after one click and don't come back.

Keep it simple,cool looking, and lots of eye candy. That's the trick.

Look at Crimson's site. TBCS is loaded with eye candy. The frontpage especially is loaded with eye candy. That's what got me interested in this place at first.
