First, congrats on making something.
Second, I don't think HN is really the place to get this kind of feedback, but that's just me.
That said: It looks crowded, and a few things seems not to line up. You seem to like a clean, minimalist grid layout (I do too, often). However, the grids and the typography need to mesh and flow well.
For example, "Featured projects" seems to float about midway alongside "Mario Sangiorgio."
I would suggest looking at Typogridphy

or perhaps Twitter Bootstrap, and then poke around
http://www.minimalsites.com http://www.minimalsites.com and get a feel for how grid-based minimalist sites tend to work. Not that you should copy anything there, but if you look at enough of them you start picking up subtle features.
You have more room on the page, make some use of it and give you content room to breath.
- msangi 14y agoThank you for your hints! Later I will look at the pages you linked and I sure will try to improve my design. Unfortunately I still have to learn a lot of things about how to properly do web-design and the reason I posted my site here was exactly to get some feedbacks.
- jamesbritt 14y agoIt takes time. The use of CSS frameworks is a topic of debate on HN; I find them very handy in getting something attractive and usable up fast. Then you can play around and customize it and get more experience.
