Re: Let's play "Here is my portfolio. How does it suck"
I'd have to agree about the layout. I also prefer placing projects each to their own page, and for reasonably sized thumbnails to open a new window rather than the current zooming box thing that's currently in place. I'd have to say that your greatest weakness is your textures. They - for the most part - appear to be… -
Let's play "Here is my portfolio. How does it suck"
It looks like I going to need to be freelancing for a while, so it's time to finally get off my butt and do something about this portfolio. http://www.jackablade.com I've been rather lax in keeping it up to date, so a priority is obviously to get some new work in there, but I'm wondering what else I need to do to hammer… -

Your work is not bad, but, you need to do some curating. At the moment is very scattershot. I can't really tell what you want to do.

If you have your homepage as just a menu with each project as a thumbnail underneath, it's easier for someone to pick a project to look at. Check these links to see… -

Have a read through this article by Jon Jones. He pretty much nails it and being an outsource manager he is the type of guy who will be looking at your site for freelancing. There is also a CrunchCast or 2 that go over in detail some pretty awesome advice on websites/folios. -
Re: Let's play "Here is my portfolio. How does it suck"
Good stuff guys. You've given me plenty to consider here. A small part of my problem is that I do work on a lot of quite different stuff professionally. Working out how to create a more focused feel when I've got a everything from a giant animatronic gorilla to a low res aeroplane model might be a challenge. -
Re: Let's play "Here is my portfolio. How does it suck"
Your art needs to be bigger. work up your thumbnails, play with colours to keep things interesting on first impression. Right now on entering, i see a youtube video and one grayscale thumbnail on a grey background. Scrolling down, i see another youtube video and tiny text and another grayscale thumbnail. Not a lot of… -
