Portfolios can be approached in many ways - in many respects they are the most important page of a webdesigners website - they showcase your ability to do what you say you can

I suggest we come up with a variety of dos and donts for designers who want to show off there wares.

What I like to see in portfolio's

  • Large, crisp images
  • Date ordered info
  • Sortable info (e.g. by, date, type, application)
  • Easy to use
  • Simple Navigation

    What I don't like to see in portfolio's

  • Tiny thumnails
  • Tricky Navigation (have to click many times to find images/links)
  • A pop up for each new image in the folio
  • Images that don't do a peice of work justice
  • Over-optimised screenshots - if people are there they are probably willing to wait that little extra for quality.
