I did feel the urge to reach for the magnifying glass to read your text, but the design and your portfolio is absolutely brilliant!
yeah, i hate when people say this to me, but the font size does need to go up a size or two. you have fields of open space around it. i don't see any strategical advantage to setting it to 8pt.
I have to agree, the body text is too small to read (at least on my monitor with my aging eyes). And one of the web thumbnails seems to not be working. Other than that, I really like the look of this site! Nice job!
