    Great stuff, Nick.

    My humbly-offered two cents:

    1) Photos of installed work (if available)
    2) Challenge: distill sheet descriptions to 3 short bullets (and I think 12 pt minimum)
    3) No pixelated imagery
    4) Any construction document examples?

    * Love the process work
    * Great ideas on display
    * Talent and heart

    Great feedback William.

    I appreciate the format and delivery too. Effective criticism is a skill.

    I have LOTS of other work and I’ll be making the changes you mention.

    Thanks.

    I like issuu the best because it’s in booklet format so you can have a feel of your portfolio before you print it out. It’s easy to use too, just upload a pdf and ur done.

    ^Link lists a few including issuu. I’ve read really good things about Lulu but I’m partial to issuu as well.

    I printed my original portfolio through Lulu. I was very happy with the results and pricing. As I am finishing up my second version I am looking into other options.

    A general question:

    I’ve seen it said on a number of threads that a digital portfolio would ideally be e-mail attachable (5 MB or less). What method have you found to be the best for keeping the resolution of images crisp while keeping ultimate PDF sizes low. Is it easier to do so by creating the whole package in InDesign as opposed to combining individually produced pages in Illustrator?
