Previously i had posted my personal site up here. Since then i have redesigned it and extended some of its features, taking into consideration some of the critiques i had received.

I am posting it again to see what everyone thinks of the new version:

What is your objective in having a website?

Do you want to get employment?  have something to show your

friends?  Sell products or services as an independent business owner?

This site has no clear objective so efforts to get traffic to it

will be unlikely to result in you making money.  It's not

ugly, just unfocused.

Well, the reason its unfocused is because it serves multiple uses. I frequently have people coming to the site for my guides. And i also have people coming for the guides but then contacting me for a possible contract job, usually art, but sometimes web dev or seo. Thus i have my gallery and "about me" to show possible employers, while offering guides to those who need it. Its main focus is not to make money, i get enough of that already, its to provide my guides, and if an occasional contract job pops up, all the better.

I'm with you, on that it seems unfocused, but because of how its used i am unsure how to organize it. Any suggestions?
