Hi all...I am looking for some help in redesigning my portfolio site...something very simple...I am a sound designer/composer
and would really like to get someone who is into building a site for their portfolio perhaps...or for some kind of exchange, or audio barter...not much money here, freelance y'know...if anyone is remotely interested, please drop me a line...hopefully we can work something out...respect!...

Not much money? That sounds familiar. Craigslist poster perchance?

ok...I knew I shouldn't have posted that here...forgive me...forget I asked...

dude! when i check out your site you have clients like diesel and vw. and you don't have any money? seriously? you must be doing something wrong.

see...I knew that I would only receive attitude when I posted this...I said " for some kind of exchange, or audio barter...not much money here..." I only waated something like the existing site...incredibly simple...I have done a lot of work for exchange, or for the collaboration if I like what the person is doing...as for me having Big Name Clients and doing something wrong...yeah, I'm sitting on a mound of cash trying to get some 'free design work'...always so quick to judge...my fault for posting...

a) sorry that i offended you but i wasn't judging. i just find it odd, no let me rephrase that, i never experienced a request for a barter deal from someone who has big clients. and since all here are basically freelancers know what it is like. just an observation.
b) minimalisitic isn't bad at all. i think it only needs some work on the typography and you're there.

Hi John!
Sorry for not responding to your mail... I've been kinda busy trying to secure some freelance projects. I would help if I wasn't in a similar situation myself (I need to get some cash flow for the holidays!)
Drop me a line when you get a chance, let me know what you are planning to do...
And don't mind the disrespecting posts, a lot of these users are juvenile kids.

rabbatski...sorry for taking it that way, I'll admit that I can be a bit defensive at times ;) I never said I had no money at all for this, just not much, should have been more clear from the gitgo...cheers...
Barton!...long time!...I will drop you a line later today...

big name clients dont always pay very well, in fact they rarely do.... what exactly are you needing?
- Geith0
That was a bit harsh. My apologies if I offended you. At least you offered a barter. I'm just sick of people that don't want to pay us designers a real fee (I'm not talking dotcom era fees either). Sick of $10 an hour posts on Craigslist. Thank god I have a few respectable clients that appreciate and will pay for design that will make a difference in their bottom line.

Geith...no worries...I wasn't overly specific in my original post...nobody likes being asked to perform a specialized skill for little or nought...happens to me all of the time...

BTW, your site is pretty nice as is. It could use a splash of color perhaps, but otherwise quite decent.
- unknown0
my guess is still the typo. maybe it does need a little color.
pepe: my experience with big name clients is that most of the time, let's say 99%, they have a matching budget. but that's my experience.
