Hey ModDB Community,

I recently overhauled my website, and would like feedback from unbiased strangers about its effectiveness. I'm a composer, so please let me know what you would recommend as if you were considering hiring me; if there is anything you would want to see that isn't on my site, or if anything that is on my site would be a deal-breaker for you.

Thanks a bunch!

-Change "Credits" to something like "My work" - it's more clear, especially to people who are not too good with the english language.
-The media player needs to "pop out" more. Right now it feels very camouflaged. Make the light grey background darker - like the grey on the left side of the content.
-The orange link color should match the orange on the web player if possible (I think)
-I like your greyscale theme, but I think that you should have more orange in the design. Not very much just a little bit more. 2 greys, 1 white, 1 black +1 color = good combination, but right now the orange color doesn't get as much attention as the other colors.
-If you have the time, make another version of your site that is adjusted to handheld deviced (like iPhone).

Thanks for all of the advice! Someone else messaged me with some similar suggestions, so while I'm still brainstorming a way to make the media player pop, I have added some color by changing the headers and titles to a burgundy color. I'm also researching how to make it compatible with phones.

I think most importantly, though, is that the home page not be boring. Anyone have any ideas on what I should do with my home page, like use a picture of myself, or something? Any thoughts help! :D

I don't know, I like it but the things I didn't like are already pointed out.

Video game music designer only ? you do realise that limits your market substantially.
Though must say some of your tracks are great.
