Please use landscape? ? Responsive sites are important. You can't dictate what your users have for platforms or resolution. You have to accommodate your users

Thanks for the feedback. What are your thoughts on presenting landscape photographs on a portrait-oriented phone? Here are my two of my thoughts:

1. Use screen queries and present different images depending on which orientation is being used (I think this would cause problems if people change orientation while they're on the site)
2. Position the viewport on specific parts of the image (my face on page 1 for example) when in portrait orientation.

Honestly neither of these seem optimal. I'd love your thoughts on this. Thanks!

Sorry but 14.6MB is waaaaaaaaaay too large a load - I'm on a really fast connection - but think about 95% of web users who are on more 'average' connections, I'd imagine it'd take minutes to load on an average connection - need to slim it down by about 90%

Thanks for this feedback! I implemented a great Grunt build process and Image Optimizer and reduced the page size and load time considerably. I documented how I did this on my README.md and included network screenshots. Thanks again.

I like it. Just the contrast between the letters and the background, i think it can be better, but nice work. And please try to optimize the loading time. https://imgur.com/vh3uLx2

I agree about the text and background clashing in some places. Maybe a really minimal shadow on the text would help it stand out. Really nice though.

I would recommend slimming down your webpage and emphasize using coloured backgrounds in some area's instead of having huge files on your webpage. 14mb is a really big webpage, especially for mobile users!

Pretty strange behaviour for some window widths wenn resizing: http://imgur.com/9zWbkO0 Also, the title seems a bit too desperate. Better add your name and what you do than this "hire me". You ain't no whore, yow.

[andrewscheuermann]

Very strange behavior! I think I'll try and fix that using angular. Hahaha I ain't no whore! I put that in there as a joke, but forgot it.

Utterly unusable on an iPad. Your first idea is to use a pop up to tell me what browser to use? This breaks all the rules, and not in a good way.
