Criticism Welcomed, but go easy; this is a huge accomplishment to me. Anyway I love your mom, and when I say that I really mean it.

*nods* I like this. The navigation is extremely straightforward and attracts the eye (which is rule number 1, I think). The list of skills is something I'll have to do on my site too. And I wonder how you did the tree graphics?

One thing - on the resume page, you might want to display your email address as an image so spambots can't read it.

Also, tectite.com has a great form-mail script that I use. The easy-construction wizard costs ~$4, but modifying the code yourself isn't that hard with their instructions.

I'm also a big fan of showing when the page was last updated (and I need to choose a bigger format for that, like you did). If you don't want to type the new date in every time, try this script:

http://www.quirksmode.org/js/lastmod.html (http://www.quirksmode.org/js/lastmod.html)

Safari doesn't support last-modified scripts, though.

DavesRock (http://davesrock.com) is a nice feather in your cap, too. Even the URL is great - easy to type, easy to spell and remember.

Well thanks Metreon, I appreciate the support. I'd like to see your site as well if you could post a link, I'm sure it's pimptastic. Anyway, the tree graphics I downloaded for photoshop from: http://getbrushes.com/nature-photoshop-brushes/anodyne-nature-brushes.php

I like your idea of having a nice, neat, simple form on the site for clients to be able to send info so I can get them a quick quote. I'll definitely look into that one.

Best of luck with your own website creations!

Regards,
Nate
