Creative Proposal - Preliminary work

My project involves setting up an online portfolio for my graphics and web design.  Many graphics displays utilize Flash or Javascript, but since there are devices which cannot show Flash or have Javascript disabled, I decided to attempt to design an attractive, functional site that uses only HTML and CSS. Most of my work so far has been in the coding of the site and saving appropriate sized versions of the graphics.  Below is a link to a draft site.

There are still many things I need to address including:

• The site loads slowly due to the large number of images.  I plan to change the coding and add a medium size file for each image.  I will probably split the site into a couple linked pages - maybe by moving move the source (original) images to a separate page.
• Several files use sources that are not mine.  Where I can rework the image with items that I created, I will do so.  In several cases, that is not feasible.  In these situations, I will include clear attributions.
• The text descriptions are very much in draft form and need a lot of work.
• I hope to develop several more images to add to the site.
• Although I like the current layout, I will be trying other possible designs

I look forward to your input.
