What Do You Want To See From A Designers Portfolio ??
 

I'm sooo close to having my new design portfolio ready... I'm adding the final stuff this weekend..

What are the most important aspects of a designers portfolio to you ?? Any feedback is appreciated .. :thumbsup

Don't be shy people :)

we would love to see your tits

On my portfolio ??
Ok I went ahead and added that to my site lol

tube sites, blogs, and hybrid type sites

Business for sure would go up :thumbsup

Thanks Fris, by hybrid type sites.. do ya think that should be a new section ??
And by hybrid, do you have a sample of what that would be ??

lol maybe I will link a few thumbs to a pic of my tits :) but the secret will be, in what section did I link the pic haha.. You will have to look to find out :thumbsup

Ill second that sentiment :thumbsup:thumbsup

Like any portfolio, resume or samples that I look at, I would like to see what makes you different from all of the rest.

High Quality samples of unique custom work rather then loads of poor quality, over used styles as samples.

It also helps to have some live previews or atleast full size pictures as its hard to tell quality from a down sized screen shot.



Oh and naked pics of the designer :D

stuff looks good to me. is that all your work or do you work with a team of people? i do all the graphics on my site, so i respect all the work. i think you have a good variety of stuff. you need typical stuff like typical MGP/TGP designs, paysite designs, banners, gallery templates, logos and cartoons/illustrations. but probably showcasing unique stuff would be great too, everyone wants something unique. and i'm not sure if you put how long projects take - i know sometimes clients want things done last week so they would like to know approx how long.

thank goodness i do all the work myself because i'd be broke. what you have up now looks quite diverse and good but when i went to the toons page there was nothing there. i like doing toons myself so always curious about that stuff.

good luck

Very good advice :) And a resume may not be a bad thing to add to the portfolio too.. So clients can see that..

I wanna see the work of the person who will do my work and that is the most important thing!

After that tell me what you are good at and what you are not so I know not to ask you for that, if you are great at toons and logos say it if you suck at flash and airbrushing say it, it will save time and headaches.

Samples should be from a few clients, have a folio of shit all done for one or two clients = 99% junky designer

Thanks, Zuzana Designs has over 10 designers developers currently ..And I just got about 1/2 our toons in today ..
