Hi guys, just put up a new portfolio site, see what you think
- kbags0
the work is excellent, and the site is pretty neat.
My only complaint, if it's even that, is that I like a little bit more control of what I'm viewing. But it is a portfolio, so the passive thing works too I suppose. Purists and usability nerds won't like that though.
Isn't it 'backward' and 'forward' in the singular though?
Great job!

You could probably change 'forwards' and 'backwards' to being singular, or make them 'next' and 'previous' or something similar. 'forwards just sounds weird to me, but that's my opinion.
The site looks pretty good.

Nice work. I'm not sure about the presentation. On one hand, the full screen display and the way you have creatively montaged pieces of the work to make it more presentable is great. On the other hand, I think a more robust navigation is in order. Imagine you had tracked down a client who was specifically interested in a piece that's seven or eight items down. You'd have to walk through the whole thing before getting there. The other thing I'd say is the looping of each portfolio item seems a bit awkward. And I would add descriptions of each item. When I wacthed the first few items go by, I thought you were a really talented student because they are more off the wall. Then after seeing more pieces it became clear you are a professional. I think captions would go a long way towards putting who and what each piece was for in context.

The only thing I might have is some type of index of work. Just so it's easier to get to a piece etc.

You could try something like that. With numbers or titles in case someone wants to visit a piece further down the portfolio.

great work. throw a nav on there and you're golden

in addition to everything stated above, I'd give people some thumbnails or a list of projects in case they don't want to look at every single project in the way you ordered.
Give users the option to either run through them all in order (as you have it now), or jump around for those with shorter attention spans (90% of all designers/ creative directors)
B+ overall. Nice work. And I don't say that often :)

thank you peoples for the comments and suggestions,
much appreciated.
- kelpie0
really like your work, agree with some of the comments above, but if you're adding a nav I'd keep it subtle and maybe hidden most of the time, because the simplicity of what you have there is great :D
