Seeing how BMX is a huge part if my life, I thought my personal site should reflect that. Here is the current version of my personal site, re-amped!
Comments and criticism are welcome!

I am supriced, i didnt exspect it to look good like that but overall im gob smaked
Good job.

I wish there was a "I-Told-You-So" emoticon. Lol.
Thanks Brandon.

i think the colors that you made the gears of the bike, e.t.c are a little bit cutesy. Since bmx is a pretty intense/serious sport, i think that the template should show that. Nevertheless good job.

off topic: BMX is sweet. I cant do many tricks currently, but i think i would like it considering i love intense mountain biking and dirt biking.

I like it Jacob.

Unlike wozzym's opinion I think the colors of the chains pretty much rock (holy shit i didn't agree w/ something wozzym said for once! ).

And I have to say I am very surprised too. I didn't think you were that good (never seen your work before just figured you were all talk )

ill agree with wozzym here, the overall template looks good but i wouldn't of choose these colors... ill say the White BG is to white... Ill say add some DIRT !!!! bmx... always works with dirt.. and being dirty... more black and brown probably... but of course keeping a little of the colors you set.

NaRzY, All talk, I think not! Haha. I am pretty good at design and that sort of thing. I have a fair bit of experience in the field.

Nice work, I like the color used and the gears etc,

the only thing is the content look empty

The background on that layout is wonderful however I feel that the content area is a bit plain. Maybe adding a little background to the content (like where you list your tutorials) will help spicing it up. Could you show us a live preview of the layout?

It looks good, i would have went with a more dirt and mud color scheme. i like the site, content area could use a bit more "jazz".

very nice jacob, im assuming this is one of the things you've been busy with .

old topic so i dont know if hes been busy with it recently. hes working with his new design firm.

Well knowing this is the only stuff from you that you posted... saying you have experience is going a head of your self.

Eh, doesn't really worry me whether or not you's think I have the experience. I know what I am capable of and that's all that really matters. .
This was one of the designs I was busy coding and working through but basically since I started at my new firm, it has been pretty hectic.

Jacob.

Its not about what i think you can do, i mean if you say you good than yea... i don't see any people saying they are if they are not.. no reason for that.
I was just replying to it.
Looking forward to see more work from you.

Nice design, creative.
i got a question its far from the main thing here, i just noticed a tool bar in your firefox that have some features such as displaying the source code, i know i can use ctrl+u for that, but does this toolbar offers more controls?
where can i get this toolbar/plugin?

I was looking for this, thanks for link Tom.

Thank you very much Tom

I like the fact that Google Chrome has the webdeveloper built in (but a very basic version).
