Hi there!
I figure it is time for me to create my online portfolio, since I'm gonna be graduating soon and sending out applications to the world.
I don't know where to start and thought you guys could point me to nice template/hosting website?
Something customisable, professional looking and user-friendly-ish?

So basically, what do you use for your online portfolio and do you like it, pros and cons?
Thanks :3
            I suggest carbonmade. emotion_dowant

There's a unicorn on the home page, I'll have to investigate, thanks x3
I'm also trying to find a good portfolio site. The carbonmade one only allows 35 images without paying any other good places?

I heard about wix, but it's in flash so I'm not so sure... looks great though.

Deviantart?


Not anymore. You pop out with a Deviantart account and a lot of companies won't take you seriously anymore. A lot of good artists just use DA on the side. It's like an afterthought...really.

That's what I thought...
    I made my own using java and a simple free website holding.
    www.jessicabowker.co.uk simple enough if you know basic html or you can allways use pre-made layouts or pay someone to make one.

You really shouldn't show more then 35 images, ideally, your portfolio should be around 12-15, especially if you're just starting out.

Looks like the free version doesn't support videos?

I use WIX, I rather like it. I mean, I could take the time to code out everything - but why reinvent the wheel? They also have a mobile option to complement whatever flash elements are used.
