Default My Final Design

Hi,

As the post title says I hope this will be my final design! I'm spending quite a bit of time on my personal site too much in fact, just wanted to get your opinions on this.

Chris Borrowdale » Designer & Developer

PS Still need to do the footer

Thank You

Hey Chris,

Have to say i preferred the last draft you came up with.

I like the subheader and the layout size etc. The links at the top just seem to blocky for my liking, maybe the stroke is just thick on the letters (especially the M's)

Just my 2 pennies worth

...for me the text looks harsh against the white background.

It looks nice - the only two issues I have is the lack of a footer to break the site off nicely, and the text

'MY THOUGHTS ON SOMETHING INTERESTING' is currently jutting left about 30px, I don't know if that is a chrome issue, or something in the design, but either way, it looks lost and floaty :(

Good work generally though - nice site :)
