Portfolio Critic

http://www.albertlo.com/index

The things that i like about Alberto's Portfolio is that he brings out the contrast and illustration in his Image/banner. He uses a Neon colors that make the image as if it is a fantasy land. Another thing that i like about his portfolio is his logo cause when you hover over the "lo" it switch's a yellow color that makes it look like a  neon sign. A cool thing about his navigation section is that people can see his recent update in tweeter and know what he has been doing other than his portfolio site. One thing that I would change from the website is that I would add a list of my works on the left side of the website.
