Hey there boys and girls, I finaly got round to making myself a decent portfolio site which I would like a few comments on, and also some help on fixing something. I am currently trying to get a job in graphic/web design and Im using my site as a point for prospective employers to see some of my works, as well as sending them my written CV.

the website is www.eighty4toads.co.uk

The issue I have is when the site is viewed in Firefox, my roll over links on the right hand side of the page dont seem to work properly. The roll over for a split second and thengo back to normal, where as IE they work fine. Any ideas why this maybe? I did create the roll over in Photoshop its self, so maybe I just need to remove them, and do it in dreamweaver its self.

I tried to keep the design of the site very simple, using a graphic layout that would load reasonably fast as well as keeping the whole thing in a none scrolling window. I did have more work to put on the site that I had on my laptop, but sadly it was stuck in the boot up sequence and I wasnt able to repair it without formating it and so lost a load of my work, some of which was commision work. Damn the boot up gawds!

Any comments welcome as allways.

Nice site, I would make the text on the index page slightly bigger so that it's easier to read.
As for the roll over images, do them in dreamweaver because it's web development software, unlike photoshop.

Again, nice site, just fix those few issues and it should be even better. <img src=\'http://www.killanet.net/forum3/public/s ... >/good.gif\' class=\'bbc_emoticon\' alt=\'(Y)\' />

The roll-overs work fine for me, and I use FF. I agree with Marko, the font needs to be a bit bigger. Also...there are loads of spelling & grammatical errors on your site. If I were a prospective employer, that would be a major concern to me considering you are looking for a design job. Other than that, very nice work. <img src=\'http://www.killanet.net/forum3/public/s ... /smile.gif\' class=\'bbc_emoticon\' alt=\':)\' />

The roll-overs work for me too - kind off. Sometimes they will get 'highlighted' on mouse-over, but then they will just shut off. Sometimes they will stay, sometimes they will flicker. - Using FF.

Using IE, it all works well, no flicker, no shutting off, it just works.
