Interesting argument, yet sort of blurred - and again: Graphics are part of visual design. Thus, not part of my request.
Organising my content? Like what? If you'd open the sitemap you'd probably reconsider your own sense of logic.
Everything is grouped into categories - sub-sections where applicable.
The number of required clicks - if navigating off the bar - may vary but hardly exceeds 3, in rare cases 4 - and that is pretty much what I had intended.
On the contrary, navigating off the sitemap to whatever - wherever - takes exactly ONE click.

Um, logic???

Hide Bar AAA aaa

seems like you were going for font changer and a hiding element. i don't know if you found a way to do so or if it was just something to fill in. what i mean by organized is maybe put better details in the heading and subheadings and details post. like the info part if it was me i would have it at the top or at the main heading so it would catch the visitors view. and i also noticed your contact takes you to a support center.

you can actually deter spam by using spam assassin or box trapper that sends a verifying message to the sender i use it allot and i don't get much spam or use a personal reply email like i do with no-reply everytime someone's replies to it; it returns back saying sorry the email you sent wasn't received due to spam or wasn't a valid email.

just some ideas. i know some things are hard to get noticed and get right but hey its all about tips and suggestions. never take criticism a bad way it's always helpful.

if you need a good contact form let me know i know some that is good if you using php tho. i don't know any in html i prefer html more then php but most of my files are php due to i mostly know that the items or codes i use are php.

and also back to organized i would also let visitor's know what your site is about it states freelance but i see phrases and medieval crowns on your site. it makes it kinda confusing. i see where its organized but some info could be more better.

but overall its a nice site. i would visit it again.

Apart from Freelance there is a second line just below reading Globetrotter, Author...

You are referring to Hide Bar AAA aaa I suppose. Not quite a /fil-in/ but thought as a tool to clear the bar on smaller screens to give more space to the content itself. AAA aaa simply aids the visual impaired to render _all_ elements larger, not just the fonts. Vice Versa, if you are finding the default settings are still way too large you can reduce the whole page layout to almost thumbnail size.

As for the contact link, I am perfectly aware of that - simply because that is how I had wanted it. There is also a clear info telling the user so. I had set-up the the SC as a means to collect all incoming mails from all sites in one central place rather than maintaining a zillion accounts. Spam Assassin, Box Trapper are server-side, and at least Box Trapper is more detour and delay than an actual aid. Harvesters will always find a way to get around, but at least I have some /legal backing/ by Honey Pot.

Summarising, I'd say at least you've taken a moment to perform a basic fly-over, the same I appreciate. As mentioned earlier, different folks have different likes. That said, I shall feed on your input, which, btw, I've found in compliance with some of my own observations, thank you. As a footnote, I'd like to re-suggest you spent a bit more time working your own sources, since they fail validation for the XHTML v1.1 SRICT DTD you are using.
