What is the best way of showing my work online?

normally if I have problem or if I want to show off something I did, I post a screen shot of it. surely there is a better way?

a lot of jobs for 3d design say 'online portfolio link' could you suggest a something?

but is a screenshot of my work OK or is there a better way? I could render stuff but surely that isnt accurate if you want to show your game models?

Again!...check that wiki resource I'd pinned...or not, really up too you?!

...but!

yeah, i looked at that already and it doesnt answer my quesiton, im not really trying to make a portfolio to get jobs, I just want to know the best way of showing my work. when people show their work on here, do they just hit "prtScn" then save that in paint after cropping?

Here is your original post. What conclusions should we draw from this? Why did you bring up jobs/online portfolio if you have no interest in either?

And yes, printscreen/crop is perfectly fine.

I print screen and edit the images in Photoshop.

Whenever textures are involved, I like to render my stuff in Marmoset, because it's quick and it looks good. The rest of the time, print screen is a perfectly viable solution
