This is definitely a work in progress with placeholder for projects but wanted to get something done. Please let me know what you think and understand that I am just starting so its not a masterpiece… Yet. Looking forward to hearing from some of you and thank you your help. - Greg > **[MmdBKv](https://codepen.io/Gregmnow/full/MmdBKv/)** > > ... ---

I think this is great work. Definitely in a great place for someone just starting out. If i were you I’d keep this exact site archived somewhere and look at it in 1 month then 3 months so on and so forth just to see how far you’ve come(you’ll be amazed). Great work and keep on practicing and learning. ---

Your photos aren’t showing up. I think your photos are only visible to you, because you’re signed in to your own dropbox account. ---

Great job! I’m a newbie, so the others can have a more productive input 😉 The only thing is that your images are not loading for me and the same thing happened to one of my images when I did my portfolio page. I would really like to know why, so if anybody could help us out – why does it happen? There was nothing wrong with my code, because the image loaded fine initially and then when I looked back a few days later it was gone. ---

Shoot. I was hopping the Dropbox links would be working. If anyone knows a better way of linking my images to codepen without getting Pro. I would love to know. ---

i just use photobucket or another image hosting site. It’s not the greatest on load times but it works enough. ---

Yes I can see the images now. Just for clarification, when my image was not working I used Imgur and as far as I know it was public not private profile, so I guess that’s one hosting site to stay away from 😕 ---
