My portfolio - Still in development

Wow Michael! That's outstanding. Really really great looking portfolio site.

Big Wow.

Michael, did you learn all that from treehouse only or from the company? meaning that if you didn't go to the company will you be able to build something similar with what you have learnt from treehouse?

Solid work man. Looks legit!

Thanks guys.

I would say I learnt HTML, CSS, basic JS /jQuery from Treehouse. On top of that, I get to use the things I learn in real life projects, which helps understand the language quicker I guess.

I majored in Graphic Designer about 7 years ago, which was a 4 year university degree ( Bachelor of design ). This obviously helps with the design side of things.

I love Treehouse by staying up to date with code and new techniques, hope that helps. Suli S

Great site. :) Thanks for sharing.

This looks very nice. Have you tested across multiple devices yet? I checked it out on my iPhone 4S and it is very stellar, and I must say your design work is really awesome! Did you design all of the graphics yourself (I assume that is a yes)? I'm sure a lot of people would want to know how long did it take you. I'm not referring to how long to code, but how long did the whole process take?

I have a 4S also, so I have checked on that. But I have yet to do testing on other devices. I'm assuming that it will be pretty good on multiple devices ( with up-to-date browsers ), as it is a fluid layout.

I think it took me a fair bit of time! I worked it out, and it was just over a year to actually have something I was happy with. Creating a fluid site, everything had to be perfect, so there was a lot of crafting :p. To be honest, I think I just gazed at it half the time, to try work out how to simplify it.

It was a fun journey :)

I have to echo what everyone else has said, beautiful site. The only piece of constructive criticism I would share is I don't know how I feel about the way you present your work. Meaning you lead them on the path, they don't have a choice to click on a certain project and then view it. But that's splitting hairs, not knocking the work by any means.

Out of curiosity, what does your design process look like? Did you do a rough mock or lay it out in its entirety in PS? Like you, I started as a designer a long time ago and I recently started doing responsive sites which has changed my whole process. I can't say that I've found anything that I'm fully comfortable with like I was back in the day when we would just do PS mocks.
