Dreamweaver is a very powerful tool. I must admit. I'm not saying that I completely hard coded HTML/CSS/Javascript - I did maybe 2-3 years ago when I did release the first soulseek-production site but I do believe in mixing Dreamweaver and Hard coding together. Of course, we can never just rely on using click/point and drag all the time - its obviously faster to just hit the split mode and edit your code. I guess maybe the point Film God wants to make as well is that hard coding is where it all began...way before WYSIWYG editors were released. Of course, we can never forget where the origin of such things came from. Its usually at times best to keep the manual knowledge still fresh in our brains but of course, due to time and effort, WYSIWYG cut it for everyone out there nowadays.

I'm sorry to say that this isn't template driven (And I detest Front Page Editor so lets not go there). My entire motto for the site is really hard code and from scratch. I did in fact, used Dreamweaver to help me "environmentally" but overall, what you'll see is more of a natural WYSIWYG. I'm a hard coded HTML person. Dynamically, yes, I'm CURRENTLY shooting blanks there. This is going to change later (this site is still in the works). I got lots of new graphics to make still and so the portfolio site will expand. Thanks for the feedback

Thanks for people's feedback so far. Here are some responses back to what has been posted: 1) The meaning of the portfolio section is to display what has been accomplished. It doesn't always mean that what is being displayed will be things that a client will want. As well, in my opinion, all work that most people find that they filter out can end up being pieces of work that could be pretty relevant. I see no harm in at least posting progress up. (Another note, portfolio sections are sections where there WILL be incoming work coming along). My main target at this moment is the multimedia/3d design sector. Of course we all know that people have different taste and style. Just because one person doesn't really find it appealing, doesn't mean the entire world will think so. I respect your opinion and I don't believe any of it is harsh which is why it gives me a great deal of information towards what I'm to accomplish on my side and what I can improve upon. 2) Brace with me, I'm a rookie [unofficially]. I do this stuff on the side. I am actually a developer in Java/JSP currently and I like to deal with many languages. I DON'T do just web development. I fiddle around with Photoshop (alone) a lot and do a lot of freehand product modelling (which is why there are hub(s) being displayed because I was browsing around looking for simple items to do first and found a hub laying around). This is what we call inspiration, people. 3) I had just revamped this site 3 weeks from today and it will improve within time and effort. Brace with me there. Again, thanks for giving me very relevant feedback and I will appreciate more of it.

Thats what I've been trying to work out. I don't like the home page either...I'm going to figure out how to approach this matter in a way that is my style. Thanks for the feedback.

Hi everyone, I'm building an online start-up business specializing in freelance web design/branding/marketing/3d graphic design. I would like everyone's input into my website: http://www.soulseek-production.com The Front end of the site is currently html but the backend (once I get the login working and such) will be php/mysql based with a touch of ajax to accommodate. All suggestions and feedbacks are welcome. --Solida [attachment deleted by admin]
