Portfolio Pimp

Hello. I bought this dns today aswell as some serverspace. I quickly made a page since so it’s not completely done. However, I’m interested in knowing what you think, and I’m specially interested in load times etc. Tell me if you find it slow or if it looks bugged etc.

a link would help


edit: how can you view the site? is the link just not popping up for me?

Very Nice stuff, you might want to put your professional work on the front page though.
The site loaded quite good for me something around .5-2 seconds for each click able image.

Hmm.. Maybe it just works in Sweden for now. I don’t know,;) I regged it last night so its not entirely impossible that the different servers (whatever they might be called) need some time.:/


Goth.
Thanks. I’m gonna think about that. It might be a good idea.

Great stuff.
Agreed.You should have your professional work at the front page.But if it were up to me, id have it all on the same page under Professional and Personal. And a separate page for the Resume/CV.
When i went to your folio, all i saw were extremely toned down colours?They(the models) actually dont have their true colours showing.You should actually have their actual colours showing as they are more vibrant and naughty looking,
I hate everything flash when it comes to design,so im going to come up and say that a more simpler HTML coded site would have been better. I would left align all the goodies and reduce the size of that model atleast by half and move it someplace else.
Oh,also,show flats

The work itself is looking excellent Really love hammer head and the dinorobot.Jason is pretty awesome aswell but imo that agrius small preview shot isnt really doing it for me.I was actualy going to say that you should take it out, but after checking it out more carefully,i must say that it is mighty fine.You shoujld work out a better presenation for him imho.
Good luck finding your gig

Hey, everything loads quickly for me and your work looks great!

I actually like the site layout you have, even though I prefer portfolios with no flash.

Very nice and simply presentation I think.

bounchfx

almost no loading time, and your work is great. I dig it, even if it's flash.

palm

Thx. I’m glad that it seems to load quickly. You never know how a server will work abroad.;)
Everybody seems to believe that its flash.^^ Well it’s actually a picture viewer script thingy. So no flash here. Maybe I should write somewhere that it’s possible to save the pictures to disk when right clicking?

I’m probably going to follow your advice about making the CV section as the default page.

Butt! :P Yeah.. That Agrius fellow is horrible rigged and badly modeled. I was far to lazy in the DW3 contest. I might look it over later or just remove it when I get some more stuff in there.

really pro looking, great layout. thumbs up!

EDIT:
suggestion:
could you make it so that if I keep clicking left and right in the script, I just go through all the 3d models in order (the next or previous model? so I don't have to come in and out of the image browser
- I mean naturally viewing them, I'd start with the first and keep looking through, why not make it so the whole lot can be viewed in one go

palm

Thx roster. I just did those changes you suggested, and a few more. Ill upload a new version a hour or so.

bounchfx

ah that's right, I heard of the viewer before, but can't quite remember the name of it. either way it works good.

ae.

wow awesome work!

palm

bounchfx.
The viewer works great. I just tweaked the code some to get what I wanted.
Here is a link for those who wants it.

When you view the website at higher resolutions the layout gets a bit broken. Other than that it looks nice and clean, great work too.

palm

Thx Splash. Ill fix that right away.

ae.

love it great job!
