Reply To: Digital Portfolios

[Jon Quackenbush]

That is what I did and it worked very well.  I purchased my domain name from go daddy so it is personalized and put it out there.

My bosses saw all my work before I even stepped in the door and were impressed that I made my own website (I didn’t let them know how easy it was).  This gives me the ability to make sure anyone who sees my portfolio views one that is up to date, which I personally see value in (especially for us youngsters who’s portfolio is rapidly growing).  If you are worried about images being stolen, watermark them with your name diagonal across the whole image.  Easy.

Admittedly since becoming gainfully employed, I have not updated it once, but it is still out there.  I’ll send you a personal message with the address in-case you are interested in seeing what someone else has done with theirs…
