Nice. Let me make some recommendations:

1) Use © for the copyright symbol - it looked like a diamond shape to me.

2) Paragraph text should be left-aligned if it's prose (specifically, on Blood08's Protfolio )

3) In your logo and page titles, you have "portfolio" spelled incorrectly

4) Your pricing is very, very low. You should be more specific in exactly what the customer is getting for that price. I guarantee you the logo I want for my company would cost more than what you're advertising - we don't have what we estimate the true cost will be (US$100 - US$500).

5) Use Ajax - it shows competence and being on the cutting edge to the "average" customer. Remember us nerds here are not the "average" and we all know Ajax is more of a catch term than anything too significant, but we're not really your audience. One little suggestion would showing me a small version of your logo and when I mouse over it, having it popup larger without me having to click to go to another page and then hit back - I'm just looking at one picture and don't need to be taken away from my current page. This would be similar to those at istockphoto.com, for example.

5) Your use of black and white is elementary and clean. That's nice, but it doesn't advertise your skills very well (whereas your sample logo is a much better indicator of skills). Make your website advertise your skills better - show off while maintaining an easy, appealing user experience. I've actually pulled in contracts from teratask.com b/c people noticed how the site worked well with nice transitions (where possible) - I used Ajax to show off my skills as that's what I do, program, whereas I suck at design (as is apparent on teratask.com, lol.)

Those are my suggestions. I hope you're very successful. We occasionally have a need for a graphics artist, so maybe I'll contact you for more details on exactly what you do.

Vacation? Enjoy! Just got back from mine and it was definitely needed (though a bit long.)

Blood08 is on a distinguished road
I updated the template color to red...
I might upgrade my pricing soon
Fixed spelling in logo and titles
Updated Copyright

As for the ajax... I am going to need to read some tutorials on it. I have no clue how it works, but that would be nice to have and offer.

Edit:
Ajax has been implemented very cool, I might have to use it more often... great suggestion

Oops. Now you don't have any search engine crawlability and your site won't work for browsers without javascript enabled. I recommend checking out my Ajax articles on my own site TeraTask Technologies, LLC . They will show you how to do Ajax and preserve SE crawlability.
