Why the hell would you wanna take out the nude pics? (OK that came out a bit in the wrong way :P)

No but seriously. You’re not plannin to make it a PG-13 site or somethin are you? Plus, it’s not pr0n anyway. It’s a talent you have - sketching. Why not show it to the world? That kinda sketching says something about one’s character… A good thing… (Not anything perverse if anyone got it the wrong way again :P)

:huh: The music is beautiful. But I recognize it and I’m thinking it’s by Danny Elfman, possibly from Edward Scissorhands? Not sure. If that is the case you might want to at least put a link on your site to the composer’s own website, or to a shop where they can buy the track/CD.

I really like the rest of the site, although I think the navigation should appear without the user having to click anything. It’s not complicated atm but it’s a bit slow and pointless to have to find the nav. Just have the ghost animation play when the site loads.

Also, you need to increase your frame rate to 24fps. As it is everything is just too slow and jerky.

The art and the style of the site looks great. Good luck!

Hmmm… So dark ambient music goes with a new-age design. Interesting.

yea really like the music. How do i turn it off though? I like the ideas of the navigation just don’t like the execution. it seems too random. whats the idea behind it? I like the quotes but whats with the dancing video that is too small? Not sure why you have a section just for nude pics… like the overall look and feel. nice job.

Liked the various things…particularly the gramophone. Too much white and right alignment. I liked exploring around for a button to click…not a problem with me…cool for a personal website.
