Hi Jun!

Website looks great :D Few bits of feedback below; but overall you should be proud of this site! It looks awesome for a first portfolio:

  • If you want a background that moves with the cursor, allow it to move horizontally as well. At the moment the leaves only shift with my cursor vertically.
  • There is a black box behind the text on your first screen, but it doesn't stick when I click "My Story", it scrolls up. I'd almost argue the black is so light it's not needed.
  • The Contact button feels really oddly positioned.. and gets a little lost in your picture. Maybe just keep it in the menu?
  • Improve the line height on your menu, the text feels very squashed.
  • I feel like your text could be a bit bigger... especially as your header font is so large. "Jun Low" is a lot bigger than "My name is Jun".
  • Going from left-align content, to center on your projects feels quite jarring. I'd suggest keeping it all left aligned, and lay it out similarly to your starting section; content on the left, image on the right.
  • Your header text and paragraph text on your projects aren't aligned.
  • I love the way you've laid out your specialities!! Might borrow that ideas myself when I come to revamp my portfolio :D
  • On your responsive, I'd suggest making the picture of you full-screen when you hit tablet size. At the moment you get bits of the leafy background as it scales.
