Yay me!
Sorry for the useless post, but some of you should be able to relate.

    @helloworld thanks. It's fine atm. I know, I'm not a wizard but it works.

    Do you have any specific reason why I should take it down? Or is it just your personal preference?

    In my opinion, u should change the fonts of home/gallery/about me, and the copyright... or make the fonts a bit large... it is illegible right now 😕

    @DjSall Also your photos could do with a little enhancement. Left is your original/right is some minor tweaks.

    @helloworld thanks for noticing the mobile scaling issue. The pictures are just placeholders atm, I'm just testing stuff out.

    Still looks shit.

    @Alice well, now I really feel like scrapping the whole thing. It doesn't scale to non-16:9 phones, seems like the only one who likes it is me. FeelsBadMan

    @DjSall Hey, you were proud of your work and it's okay. You've gained some experience, so the next one will be better, and the next, etc.

    Good luck, and show us your results :)

    Tip, do not design with code. Design with design tools, once you are happy with layout, composition, typography etc. you can use that and switch on your code brain to make the design into code. It will save you time and you can focus on the css to underpin your design. Its pointless saying it looks good etc. you won’t learn from that. Honesty is best even if it hurts. But don’t be put off. It takes time to master things, and a lot of hours. Then when you think you are getting somewhere, the goalposts will change. I’m currently weighing up the switch to css grid, but maybe too soon for primetime. Never liked frameworks. Keep at it.
