Further personal portfolio links

http://marykuper.com/portfolio/

I like this because it has a thumbnail browser to the left and the full sized images are on the right (no popup portfolio links)

I didn't mind the dark colourscheme as it seemed to go pretty well with the quirky animation on her site. However, if i created a portfolio for one piece of work, i'd title it with the name of the piece of work rather than calling it 'my porfolio' as it makes you look slightly limited. i'd say it was 'by me', and then create contact and about me links.

I love this porfolio although the wordpress publishing tool has been it somewhat into a blog in certain places. The design of the site means that you'd guess it is for an illustrator even if the work itsef was blanked out and i like this. Since my work is interactive and in flash, i'd like to have the design of it reflect this. However, i am aware of it affecting page loading times and flash animations can be a bit laggy. See the image viewer on ASOS here: http://www.asos.com/Asos/Asos-Floral-Culottes/Prod/pgeproduct.aspx?iid=917199&cid=10256&sh=0&pge=0&pgesize=20&sort=-1&clr=Print I'd love to use a flash based image viewer with smooth navigation, but it is laggy on my netbook (it is better on my desktop but it shudders a little and the transition isn't always smooth when i have other programs running!).

The designers work is tiled, with a description below the titles, but once you click through to the full size page, the work is allowed to speak for itself.
