I decided to create a profile page/blog of what I have learned here with TeamTreehouse. I placed it at https://mydescent.getforge.io. I would love some feedback and perhaps suggestions on how I can improve things.
Thanks,
Joe

And optimize images, they are have too big resolution for used size. I even see how they loading by lines. You must use thumbs with smaller sizes for images and load a full image, when user click on it, for example, in lightbox.

47,353 PointsLooks pretty good. I like the hover animations.
I recommend a lighter background on the cards to contrast well with the darker font color and a lighter color for the nav links when hovered to contrast well with the blue. Also, note that on smaller screen sizes the nav links wrap and the line animation hover effect overlaps the links above.

I recommend using a mobile first approach by designing the cards for mobile (phone) screen sizes, then adjust the styles within media queries using min-width for tablet and desktop sizes.
