Alternate Portfolio: Melvin. Bad


http://picasaweb.google.com/melrichardsonmbe/BridePhoto/#

I got to this porfolio via http://www.cicibridal.com/bridal-dresses.html

They do not host any of their images themselves, instead when you click the gallery link, it takes you to picasa. Then you select the dress you like and email the reference number. There is no information about the dress, and the filenames themselves are simple i.e. 1a, 1b, 2a, 2b... etc.

I can see how flickr would be useful for small portfolios, but there are 328 images not arranged into albums or organised in any way, and after 2 seconds of scrolling everything looks the same. This wedding portfolio is much better http://www.foxglovegowns.com/portfolio/portfolio.htm although there are uneven spaces and image sizes.

I decided to look for good examples of portfolios on picasa and i will blog my findings soon...
