Place Projects heading above the links to week 1, etc.
Check spelling: "Photograpshs of real people" and see whether precise would be useful: read-out your page and reduce sentence length where it sounds lengthly.
Remove "Extras": if there's no content under it, there's no point to including this header!
Fix "Holla at me!"'s text's link.
Not sure "A way for you to give me criticism." is what you want to say? "Constructive feedback, welcome here." would be a friendlier, more confident request!

This page's layout is distinctive, easy-to-follow and read. Well done!
Please consider these changes:
As a first time reader, I'm confused by the header and sub-header: simplify these to be self-explanatory to someone who is not on our course.
Reduce the size of the "media digital" graphic. It takes too long to download. Do the same the image linking from "Storyboard".
Open up your background image and use the magic wand on a low tolerance setting to clear edges, then use the watermark tool to soften them.

Check title in browser: it should be "Nicky Austin's..."

Your homepage's photo and copywriting style create a very welcoming feel.
It may be useful to add examples of your Photoshop work to the homepage; to showcase you abilities and add more interest...

This is an exciting layout and it's great that you have experimented with your homepage design on many levels; especially graphically and code-wise.
Changes you should consider are:
Add your surname; it'll help with searchability and building your online presence.
It's not obvious what the music player is for: perhaps you could add the song name, etc. so that the viewer doesn't think it's a strange menu addition...
I'd try to make it even zanier; so that your sense of humour is even more obvious and the page is less likely to be taken "seriously", but in a good way!

Your homepage has a friendly, welcoming feel and is easy to read. Well done!
To improve it, I recommend you make the following changes: 1 Change your title to: Raziya Zintle's Online Portfolio. Including your name is useful for improving search-ability. 2 Check that the same style is consistently applied: "Influential Websites" should match "My weekly projects", for example. 3 Change the backgrounds of links that have become difficult to read (blue hyperlinks on a blue background are hard to read). 4 Make spelling corrections to the highlighted body text.

It can be enhanced by fixing the following:
The inexplicable ">" above your page heading.
Place Projects heading above the links to week 1, etc.
Check spelling: "Photograpshs of real people" and see whether precise would be useful: read-out your page and reduce sentence length where it sounds lengthly.
Remove "Extras": if there's no content under it, there's no point to including this header!
Fix "Holla at me!"'s text's link.
