I can't read the white text as there is not enough contrast between it and the tan background. UI is simple and nice.

I get that you have to scoll over.... but still I would have more contrast.

mmm, i nave to think about it. i tried to colorize a little more that text but then in, my opinion all the layout crashed down. so finally i colorize the text only at scrolling over.

whoa...I stared at a blank screen for 10 seconds before realizing you had text there. You asked if you made a typographic error and you did...no contrast--making your text illegible.

You need to look at this on a laptop (LCD) screen...the text is literally invisible.

i hope you mean only white text with pink rollover...

Looks like you need to fix your apostrophe in k'ion.
Needs to be curly.

Also, there's a typo on the title of your site.
You have two apostrophes instead of one.

arrrgh, you're right. i'll fix the double apostrophe.
but what do you mean exactly saying "curly" ?

yes...the white text is invisible, as the light shade of grey you are using as a background does not show at all on my LCD screen. It's your site, of course, so do as you wish, but typically you never want to hide navigation from the user.

but yu're right. many people suggested me too, i had to fix it. in a few days the white color will change into the dark grey one (the same like in the "portfolio" title). i think too, i'll have to increase a little the font.

thanks for comments

see below. you may want to experiment with
different treatments of the apostrophe.
