Hi Jesse,

I took a fast look and here's a few suggestions.

1. Your home page looks great, except newcomers might not know what to do in
the absence of any instructions. It might be worth it to put an "Enter Here"
(or similar) button somewhere.

2. If you're going to offer freelance design services, you should run your
own pages through the W3C validator, and then do whatever you have to do to
get them to meet the current HTML standards. Some of your knowledgable
customers are going to do this themselves before they decide to hire you,
and you can bet your competition is going to check it too.

3. On one of your client sites, there was a prominent mention to press
Ctrl+D to bookmark the page. IE users might not realize this is the
"Favorites" option, unless you mention it too.

4. on the Digitech site, I think the images would look better if they were
centered, and on a transparent background too. Also, the site owner's first
language is not English, amd he needs someone to fix the text if he wants to
sell into this market.

Hope this helps a bit. . .
