Designing my website

This is my basic template for my web design unit its inspired by a website i discovered. I feel the grey slight gradient with the not full black font, makes a contempary website which is the perfect platform for displaying my work.

UPGRADINGS

Right after working pretty hard i'm now on 228 points which is DDM
So what i need to focus on:

Unit 1 - Get a distinction = 12
Unit 10 = Distinction = 6
Unit 39 = Distinction = 12
Unit 34 = Distinction = 12
Unit 43 = Pass = 6
Unit 3 = Distinction = 6

doing this adds up = 54

228+54 = 282

Gotta get my head down tomorrow........
