It's nice and all but it has no contrast whatsoever, I'd leave right away struggling to read everything on this laptop screen :)

nice

Looks awesome. It loads a little slow for me though. The main header banner. I really like the style. I would customize the small graphics though, like the folders, and icons.

I think it looks very very cool. In fact - id love to talk to you about a skin job (!) when you feel like taking one on.

Along with what everyone else was saying:

I think that the vb icons let it down. Ditch the AIM, rep blip, message icon, online status, etc... look very much out of place (along with the envelopes as amy mentioned). Then again I guess Rome wasnt built in a day ;)

Also - I think that the drop down menus could use some work - they look out of place.

Finally - There is something funked about the various shades of blue. The biggest funk is between your page background blue and your td background colours - they just look slightly odd to me.

Those are just one mans opinion though - I do have to state again I really like the general look and feel though. One of the more original skins that I have seen for awhile - clean and simple and fresh.

i love it dude, its different and its unique ;) good work

Great luck on building your portfollio, you are doing an awesome job! I like it, and different always works well! By the way I love retro!
