nice, but the resume is kinda plain. You might consider trying a format that is a little more 'exciting'. Well done, though!

looks nice.

keep the resume that way. plain = clean = good. cluttered = distraction.

-edit-
hmm.. how did joshpokeball's post get on top of mine?? it wasn't there when I posted it.

about the website again, very nice on the links section. never seen that kind of format for links before.. I think I will have to COPY... :p

I'll elaborate more on the resume.

I like the simple layout. but make the title/sub title stand out more. Like caps for "education", "activities", etc.

or add indentation.

BTW, I know a lot of design people like small fonts because it looks clean, and they have no problem reading it. But many people hate small fonts.

So, try one or two size bigger. I used Verdana size 2 for mine.

-edit-
the blur effect is quite neat. but since some people doesn't like it, maybe redo the image using less blur??

as far as making the resume 'stand out', you might try making the sections stand out more, here's my resume. Yes it kinda looks like ass, but I've had alot of compliments from interviewers.
I like the blur, keep it.

The blur on the homepage isn't bad but on the other pages it's horrible. It's too small of a font/picture to make blurred. It hurts my eyes. Maybe just use blur on the homepage and use another way of making your smaller links stand out.

the new blur are fine.. again, I never have a problem with the &quot;old&quot; one.. so..

I think it's fine. don't worry about it too much.

often when I just finished redoing the layout of my website, everything looks just right. so try not to look at it for 2-3 days, then come back to it and see if everything still looks right.

DJ, sorry, but I'm going to follow lupin's advice for now. I'll leave it for a few days and reconsider.
