    Looks good. A few more details will make it amazing:

    1) Overall, the design is a bit flat and needs to stand out more. Do something to set the content away from the background, eg. a drop shadow and spice up your header because it's definitely lacking something. For a portfolio you'll want to prove to people that you're a great designer and before they see any of your work, they'll be looking at your site.

    2) The headers 'home' 'gallery' etc, are too big for the bar. Maybe reduce the font size and set the text away from the edge of the bar.

    3) Your spelling really isn't very good (yes, I do realise this is only a template but...). Poor spelling/grammar will instantly detract visitors from staying at your site.

    4) The domain myport.com is already registered. I'm afraid I just assumed that you don't own it, so I'm sorry if you do!:

    Hope that helps :D

    Sort colours and text. That's your first step. :)

    Sure:

    In the first template:

    1) "Wich signature is the bether"

    should be,

    "Which signature is the best" (Better should only refer to comparisons between two things. I'm a bit pedantic, I know...)

    2) "I" should always be capital

    In the second:

    3) "makeing" should be "making"


    I suspect that some are probably typos. Best thing to do would be to paste your content into Word, or something with a grammar/spell checker. ;)

    The 1st one looks pretty nice. Just work on your spelling. "Bether" should be "Better" but as someone else said it should say "which is best?"

    Also you don't say "Copyrighted to name here" You say "©2006 name here", or something along those lines, but don't say "copyrighted" ;)

    The text on the banner of the second one needs alot of work.

    Stick with version 1 in my opinion.

    tyvm for the reply, I usually dont mind my spelling. The design is what i try to improve most. But afteral the spelling makes a impression. Personaly i like the second temp bether than the first one, but you think the first one is bether?

    What does people think i should continue on. Temp 1 or 2?

    The first seems to have more potential to me.
