You have a few errors on your A_Ramblin_Wreck page...

The Georgia Institute of Technology is a world renowned school, and has an electrical engineering program that is commonly ranked in the top 5 in the United States.

and a few here:

I am currently pursuing my Bachelor of Science degree in Electrical Engineering with a telecommunication trackmaybe use the word emphasis instead of 'track'. My interests of specialization are security and wireless networking...

Though you did say work in progress :)

Two comments.

1. Get rid of the "mystery meat" navigation. Save the experimental features (fade in/out, huge text, high contrast colors, etc) for an experimental site -- not your professional resume.

2. Convert your resume to HTML. If someone is looking for an "electrical engineer specializing in wired and wireless networking and security" in the Atlanta GA area, they won't find you in Google's index.

    thanks for the feedback, i was hoping not to have a searchable resume, so I have the png, and a robot deny for the pdf. What type of navigation would you recommend?

If your aim is to do dev work... I think it's important to show specifically some of the work you've done.

    The majority of my professional work is all locked up in the Cisco Wireless Lan Controllers, but the next page I plan to add will be some personal coding projects.
