Hi! I've just finished updating my Web Portfolio and would love to have some feedback. https://djnl.uk/

I have just finished dropping in some recent projects and rejigged parts of the layout. Since graduating I haven't had any feedback whatsoever, so any insights on the website or the projects themselves would be greatly appreciated.

The site is supposed to act as a sort of overview of my work without going into any depth, hence the lack of information. The project information and concepts are then revealed in my PDF Portfolio - would you recommend changing this?

Thanks,

Dom

    Hi Ben. I really appreciate the kind words buddy!

    Thank you for clearing that up!
    I'm going to add around a second or so to the image slider and have a little play around with it.

    Haha no way, maybe that was my intention all along :D I'm playing 4D Chess out here.

    Thank you again for your time Rich.

    Hi Ernest. Your kind words go a long way mate, I've been struggling to find work so it's a great little confidence boost, thank you.

    I built the site using Cargo Collective (https://cargo.site/), it's reasonably priced, intuitive and has some really good features.

    I wish I could code haha. Maybe that's something to work on down the line.

    Thanks again, Ernest!

    Thank you for the kind words Ben! Ah yes I hadn't even thought of that :D I'll change that now :-)

    I appreciate you taking the time to have a look.

    Hey Dom, love your work and I love the site. I think the lack of descriptions is fine, as it makes it all about the work. I do agree with Ben though, the image sliders could do with being slower as I sat through each project a few times to make sure I got all I needed from them. Saying that though, it did make me stay on each project for longer so that might not be a bad thing but just something to think about. Nice work mate!

    Hey Dom, this is fanstastic. A lot of good work to engage with which is the most important thing especially online.

    Did you code it yourself?
    Good stuff

    Your work is so good Dom! The type and colour use is great.

    I wonder if the auto slideshow of the project images could be slowed down? I wanted to take a moment to appreciate or read some parts but they disappeared quickly.
