My first site up for review :)

Hi everyone!

My first site is finally live!

A lot if not all of the content is to be checked and replaced with the actual content needed but it fills a hole for now.

My main things im hoping you will be kind enough to give your opinions on are styling and how you find it to use.

This is my first site so be gentle :P

Site is built on a bootstrap custom download and is a WordPess site.

The tabs on the Websites Page are made up of sub pages of the websites page and get added whenever a new sub page is added under that Parent.

The things to know section on the Home Page is made using custom post types for each collapse area and you can make as many or as little as you want.

I really hope you will like the Bootstrap Buttons with flexbox page under Developers, the content is dummy content but I am building the page currently to support the affix and scrollspy.

The buttons are made using this plugin which you are welcome to!

Hope you dont mind helping me out and all your opinions will be taken into account.

I think it's pretty cool, but the brightness of the red burns my eye a bit.

the colors are too harsh. you have bright blood red contrasting a dark gray. the fonts are also too chunky. it looks very template-ish. I like the footer.

It needs to be more minimal and simple. light fonts, calming colors, and only bold text where you want to drawl the most attention.

Hi Kevin,

Thank you for your comments, I joined treehouse about 9 months ago now. I jumped in and out of tracks for a while before concentrating on the web design track followed by the 2 wordpress tracks with a few courses in between.

This is my latest site for the plugin above .. BF Button Shortcodes
