FCC: Build a Personal Portfolio

Hi everybody! :raised_hand_with_fingers_splayed:
I’ve just finished a Personal Portfolio Page as the responsive web design project and I would appreciate any feedback on it:
https://codepen.io/pen/?template=wvgoabL

Thank you :slightly_smiling_face:

@dariachi85, the link you sent is to a template that looks like the sample project with just a few changes.

Is that what you meant to link?
A pen that you’ve created should have your userid in the URL.

Sorry for that. The link was right , but I found out that it is better to post own projects in the grid so I adjusted it. Here is the URL with my id:

I tried to make it the same as mach as possible to practice following projects instructions and designs for the future.
But I’ve changed menu for small screens , etc (no JS because I didn’t learn it yet) for some practice as well :upside_down_face:
I wonder if I made mistakes or some insufficient decisions.
I would be very grateful for any suggestions and criticism :slight_smile:

I get the temptation to duplicate the example projects but that isn’t really the point of the projects.

I will say, for learning purposes copying a design is not actually a bad exercise, but you are missing out on a few things doing so. Starting off with a blank page and having to come up with your own design and planning it out is a valuable experience. Like the color scheme, fonts, the layout, and so on.

Another issue is that until someone actually reads the code and compares it to the example project it will look like you just copied everything and made a few changes. Which isn’t ideal.

I’ve got your point.
