Woo Hoo! It's Done!

1. Very Goth. I like it. I would make the title lighter though. I couldn't really if it was
Bobby or Roddy. Seriously I like what you've done.

3. Thanks for the feedback.
I made a few changes last night. I fixed the fonts and made them white so it is easier to read. I think I might lighten the pallet too. Thanks.

2. Doesn't look too bad in Safari
A little dark for my taste. And I think it needs to be spread out a little bit more and centered.

Another thing - too many words. Let your work do the talking.

On the work samples - I'm not a fan of fancy, script-y fonts. Always have been a Helvetica kind of guy. I know it's important to please your clients, but as a designer you want to steer them to design choices that have maximum impact on increasing their brand identity.

The lighting on your picture is really harsh. You can either take out some of the harsh shadows in Photoshop or get the photo done again using a diffuser on the flash (hang a piece of kitchen parchment paper over the flash if you're using a point and shoot or use natural light and no flash).

4. Thanks.
I did change some of the fonts and made them white. As far as my logo, I really like that font, but you are right about the picture. Thanks for the tip. I'll try that.
