I really like the layout of your blog/website (hey, pastels are always a good way to go!). Anyway, being unemployed at the moment I seem to have plenty of time when I’m not completing and turning in resumes to do a bit of “freshening up” on my own site; something I never had time for before. Many [people] never seem to understand the impact that can be made with a good CLEAN (unencumbered?) site that takes into consideration the typefaces used, as well. (…and here’s crossing my fingers that I might be lucky enough to snag one of those sets of Typeface Cards). Take care!
Ev4n
