The art work is really nice and the Flash is nice, but...
1) If you want to be found on search engines, you have a problem
2) Text browsers will also read nothing at all which is unfortunate for the visually impaired who may use text-to-speech software (though this is not your target audience) and those using hand-held computers.
3) I can't resize your tiny text and the popup window for your website only uses half the screen.
4) The site takes some time to load, even for a cable modem.

I review many sites like this since I get many resumes for graphics designers. The site makes a great portfolio, but if you wish to rely on search engines to attract visitors, you may need to create an HTML page with text that will direct visitors to the rest of your website. The HTML page should include keywords such as "graphics design" for search engines to read and determine your site's contents.

There are logos and images that may be copyrighted by others. You must have permission to include them on your website. Your contact link simply links to your email address. It should link to a web page that shows your name, address, phone number (optional) and email address. I also did not see your copyright information at the bottom of any page.

Again, the graphics are very beautiful and professional. If you do not wish to change your website, you may want to find sites with which to exchange links. Look for web designers, programmers or business sites that share your target audience.
