website/porfolio critique- give me your best
Been making my website over the past year during my 1st and 2nd year of 3D at uni. But I feel like its not really doing the job.

Re: Simple Question - Plasma or LCD
Plasmas have a much shorter half-life than LCDs. So at a certain point their picture will fade and become terrible. LCDs should last a lot longer than plasmas. This may have improved quite a bit, or the half-life may be so long on plasmas now that it isnt an issue, but its something to look into. I've got a 37" 720p sharp… -
