Plan for Nathaniel "gnatinator" Sabanski

#1 I like the graphical style, but maybe you should include a wider range of stuff in your portfolio.

The color contrasts on the Peppermint site are too low, so it is kind of painful to read. If you want more constructive criticism I'd be happy to answer e-mails.

#2 Good work... DAMN good price. I'll definitely keep you in mind :)

#3 I mean no offence, but you're losing a lot of spiders on your portfolio. Flash-only nav is a big no-no. And since your main content is Flash, users can't override your stylesheet so you need to make sure your text is already readable.

That said, the two example sites suffer from neither of these problems.

#4 Although your prices are excellent (not sure how you would make money with those rates), I would agree with Iain in that it needs refinement before it shows pro web skills. Flash for the main page/nav is ok with me (with an html backup and appropriate javascript direction) but the loading motion is slow and very 2001 in style. The sliding nav panels seem gimmicky.

The demo sites seem tight (peppermint games, esp) and you may consider using that technique for your main site and use flash where it shines: delivering multimedia.

Good luck!

#5 The price is all good. The button click sound effect is a little too high pitched and grating on the ears though. I'll seriously consider your services if the person working on my site now decides to quit.

(Word of advice, ALWAYS pay for services, music, art, code, whatever. Even if they say they'll do it for free. Unless they share the same vision as you and are a part of your actual company, they'll take their sweet time and/or eventually quit before the job is done.)

#6 Great idea!
