Based on my feedback this is what I got so far. I've made many changes on this design but I kept the concept and the original images. There were some people who said my design looked good as it was, and some others who said that the title fonts weren't matching with the background. Perhaps that is why I made so many changes to it. However, now I've realized that I shouldn't have pushed it that far. It might look good at the beginning, but after a while you kinda get tired of looking at it. I've been having some tough days on last few weeks and my ideas come and go as the wind in spring. What do you guys think?

Hi Martin - I went back and looked at your original concept, and unfortunately I think you've removed many of the elements that made it so strong. The color scheme was excellent, it had a wonderful sense of space, and your headline font had a nice liquid quality. It was like you were channelling Salvador Dali.

Hopefully you've saved that version. It's the one I'd work from. There's a lot of disharmony in this current iteration. The good news is that I think your first concept is so good that it doesn't need all that much work anyway.

Your colors and images choices, on your final project are untouchable! It gives me the creepy circus in the desert feel which is just great! Wonderful job! Don’t change anything!!!

Very nice design! I love this composition.
I think you might make the type face "about your self" little bit more legible.

I really like it though ime not sure if your site is reading designer it reminds me of sheriff but overall its really cool i love it.

Heya Martin.

There are a lot of revisions on this that I like, especially how you've combined your links and the miscellaneous information at the top with those containers. And I really love that logo you have beside your name; so awesome! But overall, this feels to me like a picture that got ironed onto a plaid quilt. I do like the pattern and design you've done on the sides, but considering what your original version looked like, it just doesn't seem to fit on this. The very bottoms of the trees look too obviously cut out against the background there too.

Hi Martin! I love the colors you've chosen, and your use of symmetrical balance with the trees is easy on the eyes. Is there a way you can achieve that same symmetrical balance within your title/ headline to help keep your overall design cohesive?

Hi Martin!
I'm really enjoying your color scheme. Your design looks great but I'm wondering about the plaid sort of background. Not sure it matches with the great images you have used and the interesting type.

Hi Martin,

I really like the symmetrical balance you have! The over all design is awesome! The only thing I'm still have trouble with is the text. Trying making the text bold for readability or change the the typeface

I find this to be very well done. It shows something that I haven't seen and it's refreshing. Good Job
