Hi guys,
Im in the process of setting up my own personal website as a place to display my work. The site will be based on a wordpress template I have purchased. Im aiming to personalise myself. The template can be seen here...

As far as I understand, the image at the centre of the homepage has to stay where it is so I have designed around that. The plan is to show a few samples of work that run in a slideshow and then more work can be seen my selecting the 'work' tab from the top menu.
I have attached my latest design for the homepage (which includes my new logo) and shown how the homepage would look when displaying a few different work samples. I cant decide if I need more texture/interest in the background image. Im also wrestling with the best way to display my logo (i.e top left, bottom centre) and Im not sure if the wording I have added underneath the image is a bit cheesy or maybe even in the wrong section (might be better in the contact section?)
I also cant get happy on a colour for my logo, I see it working in black and white mostly, but that makes the overall page quite monochromatic so I thought it needed a splash of colour to make it stand out.
Anyway, any feedback or tips would be greatly appreciated!
