1.     1024 x 768     57.38%
2.    800 x 600    18.23%
3.    1280 x 1024    14.18%
4.    1152 x 864    4.95%
5.    1600 x 1200    1.67%
6.    1280 x 800    1.56%
7.    1600 x 1024    0.55%

so a little under 20% of the people wouldn't be able to view my site properly.  But that 20% probably wouldn't be viewing my site in the first place since most of the art scene folks use higher res's.  I dunno - is that 20% worth shrinking my site?

I say no, personally Im sick of websites having to cater for people with lower resolutions, catering for people with slow connections I understand. but its their decision to use a small resolution that fucks up how some stuff looks

Wrong, some older monitors can't use anything higher than 800x600.

i didnt know that anything built in the last 5 years wouldnt be able to reach higher than 800x600.  in regular displays, my 3 year old monitor has 800x600 as the lowest option

looking good, and the added content gets rid of any notion that the top would overpower it

Maybe some of the people who own computers whose screen doesn't reach a high resolution don't have   the fault? I, for example, work with a five years-old iBook whose screen is really small and can only achieve 800x600. If I had the money I would gladly buy a new computer, but, unfortunately, I don't have it and I'm one of the unhappy people whose parents or relatives don't give this sort of thing to. So maybe you shouldn't say that kind of thing again

Anyway, the website works normally with me, I just can't see a few ,unimportant, pixels on the right side. The design is really good and the navigation is fine too. You should really consider that mini-game thing, I would be there all the time I look forward to see the finished thing!

the site works fine here. i thoroughly dislike the guy in the header though, he's just... dislikable :X. seriously though, i don't think that he reflects your skill very well, as he has no character and an awkward pose, his hand stubs give me the creeps. oh, and i stumbled over a few typos and did some quick proofreading if you don't mind:

it sais brows instead of browse in the welcome note,

its still home instead of it's in the about me paragraph,

mean while should be meanwhile in the art section,

illustraitor -> illustrator, bottom of the resume page,

If your into the myspace thing -> you're, bottom of the contact page,

and it says hear and soul in the pixeljoint link description.

 Indigo's site has one of the best layouts I've ever seen. Great work. This inspired me to add some stuff to my site.

[Indigo]

thanks for the comments everyone!

Miascugh: thanks for the proof read *fixed*

2 things still left to do:
- get the gallery running (anybody have any ideas on how to do this efficiently?)
- get the game working (this will fix alot of complaints about the graphics up top such as stubby and the lack of plant-life)

C+C still welcome - its very helpful
