Portfolio Website Designs

This week I'm trying something new, I was told that my blog looked a little sparse and could do with some images. So I have decided to upload some of my designs onto my blog for some feedback.

Also a quick update you can visit my portfolio website by click the web link on the left or the new domain name amc-design.

Some quick designs knocked up in Photoshop, tell me what you think as comments are welcome.

Design 2:


Designs are unfinished at the moment, as you can see some of the layers are still visible, forgot to hide them.

Bought some books from amazon yesterday, seen as I saw that someone on the first year had bought them and Dave S has bought them, I thought it would be a good investment even though the date of print is slighly old, it is always good to have more knowledge.

Hi Adam,

Two interesting looking designs you have there, I see you've gone for a different looking approach than the norm. How will your work be displayed on them?

Dave.

To tell you the truth Dave I don’t know, it’s a good job you thought of that. I was just getting some ideas down, may have to rethink the design. Many more ideas to come though so watch this space.

Perhaps it's worth deciding upon a structure for the site and method of displaying your work before you design?

What do you think of my updated screen design I posted yesterday?

Dave.

Glad you found the Jim Krause books useful! Some of the designs are a bit old but they still offer some inspiration.

Cheers for the comment. Haven't had time to read through them completely yet.
