Designer Portfolios Part 2
2nd edition — by Patrick McNeil — Jan. 13, 2007
The Site Type
Certainly one could dedicate an entire site to portfolios alone. There are thousands upon thousands of them; and an equally large amount of absolutely beautiful ones. If your a designer looking to establish an online portfolio you are in for a long painful road. I have yet to meet a designer who published their first concept, or even their second; for most it is more like their 14th. I am certainly no where near satisfied with mine, but in the end few of us have the time we need to put into them.
For this set of sites I once again tried for some diversity. Not all of them are the most astounding; some are very basic for sure. But they are all effective portfolios. Hopefully the variety will spark some ideas for something fresh. After all your portfolio site is your chance to try something new, or explore an aspect of design you don't' get to do in your day to day work. Above all things, just have fun with it.
