So, I'm starting work on my portfolio site. The majority of the web work that I do is in flash. It seems like every single portfolio site that I see, is done in flash. Because of this, I was thinking about doing mine all with xhtml/css. I'm having a hard time finding nice portfolio sites that aren't flash. If you have any links, I would love you forever.

If your main skill is Flash, then stick with that. You can be different without leaving your strength.

I wouldn't like to comment in whether mine was nice or not.
But it doesn't use Flash.

There's a lot of good site there folks. And there was me thinking I was bucking the trend by not using Flash.
I don't really wanna start an arguement, but the older I get, the more I craze simple, clean, UNSUPRISING and easy to use websites.
Flash makes me anxious.
hehehehehe.

Nor my site use Flash and I like it anyway, but that's just my opinion.
If you like it or not I leave it unsaid.

nice site stewart...you too tenchurizer...although i would love it w/o the popups ;)
- tenchurizer0
Neuarmy; Thanks, yeah I know about the popups... any ideas?
What do you think if you clicked a link and then it popup's just as ordinary window... and in the address bar it says for an ex.

Hey how about this.
1. Work out what your site needs to do
2. Work out how best to visualise your content.
3. What technolgy is best for this task. Flash, Director, HTML.If you start from the technology and work backwards you are restricting creativity from day 1.
Just my ramblings, please ignore if you think I'm an a hole ;)

Hey mijlee,
Looks lilke your site is down. Did u know?
- stewart0
and tenchurizer,
maybe do like your website, but my mac doesn't
don't know what's wrong with the code, but i see some scrollbars, and when i scroll content randomly appears, disappears... strangé.
- tenchurizer0
Hm.... is it only the news scrollbar that is wrong or is it the hole site? Could you send a screenshot or something?
- stewart0
yes, moment please

Tenchurizer.
Looks fine on my Mac. It's definately not the 10px discrepency that you often get between Mac and PC with iFrames and Pop Ups.
