really smart looking.
one comment: The skills look like buttons? (i tried to press them)
one question: What font is that in your blueish and greenish boxes?
ps great blog - reminded me i need to start doing that
They look like buttons? I guess I’ll change them in the future.
As for the fonts, thanks for asking! I used http://dummyimage.com/ to generate the placeholders, and I had to read its docs to answer your question. According to it, they used M+ Fonts. Now I think I might change my portfolio’s fonts as well .
That’s funny you had a poll for the skill list looking like buttons. I checked your portfolio first and tried to click on them. The page is incredible though. Thank you for the inspiration. Here’s my totally newb html/css portfolio (You’ll need to open that bad boy in a new window. Sorry) The assignment is complete, however the page will be a work in progress. I Just need to move onto further education.
They totally look like buttons. I clicked on them and was emotionally traumatized when they didn’t work. The whole page looks really clean and professional though. Awesome job.
Dude, if you think that portfolio is “totally newb” then you’re severely underestimating yourself. Compared to that, mine (which I haven’t even started yet) will look like it’s been constructed from silly string and duct tape. As portfolios go, yours is pretty epic. Great job.
Well then. Thank you @Perfidion. Don’t doubt yourself thought. The project itself is meant to further your knowledge. I too use a little string and some tape now and then. What I’ve found helps a lot is restarting when your work gets jumbled. The 2nd time around goes so much faster and cleaner.
I think maybe putting a containing div around the skills list with some level of heading (h3?) inside will get your intent across
Im viewing on mobile, the background image took quite a while to load for me. Maybe you are using an image that is larger than necessary. Try optimizing/resizing it if so.
Also, the navbar stays in the middle of my page, and scrolls with page, obscuring whats behind it.
Overall, youve done quite well! The design looks great, something that lots of people struggle with, despite how good at coding they are =]
I was thinking to put a heading for the skills list but I went for dropping the idea after seeing the same in another portfolio, since it seems obvious enough.
Yes it’s ugly. I’ll fix this soon. Thanks for pointing out.
