  1. Still need to redesign the logo, I mentioned that before.

    Removed the bit about being self taught since you're all so confused over the meaning.

    Removed the large fonts in the intro text because nearly everyone I've asked has mentioned it and doesn't seem to comprehend why it was designed like that.

    Still need to decide what I'm doing about displaying more info in the "projects" bit.


  2. The idea is they are the important points and they stand out. Most people (such as potential employers) probably won't read the full intro paragraph, so my thinking is if the important keywords stand out to them when they scan the text, that'll help get their attention. I'm yet to decide if I'm going to keep it like that, but I think it's definitely better than just regular bold which doesn't stand out too well if you scan the text with your eyes.


  3. Cheers. I'll have a look. Would prefer just a zip of various textures I can test out as backgrounds rather than needing to find something specific.

    But if anyone knows of any dumps or whatever, I'm particularly looking for seamless textures of the following:

    - Wood

    - Paper

    - Bricks

    But anything else might inspire me too, such as grass, roads, water etc


  4. I'm currently working on a personal website, which will basically be a portfolio of all of the websites and other things I've created and/or worked on over the years. The only problem I'm having is I'm not a graphic designer and I'm not really that creative when it comes to designing things that stand out. I'm great at coding and great at building things that work on the web, but I'm struggling to come up with something that looks good but is also functional at displaying a list of my work.

    I've got some ideas which I'm working on and got some specifications I'm working towards, but if you guys have any ideas or examples of portfolios (particularly web development rather than web design), post them here and I'll see if I get inspiration. The only problem with web design portfolios is the authors are usually graphic designers and they can come up with all sorts of sexy graphics that I have no chance with. I just need something with a basic background that looks nice, a cool logo and then some good content with images of my projects.

    Also does anyone know where I can find some good seamless textures which will tile both horizontally and vertically?


  5. Anything by Rockstar Games is guaranteed to be good. They seriously don't mess around and don't release something that isn't the best they could make it.

    Naughty Dog are awesome too. Crash Bandicoot was one of my most played games as a kid, and Uncharted is one of my favourite game series' behind GTA - BUT I wouldn't get a game just because it was Naughty Dog, whereas I would for R*.

    Halfbrick are great for iOS apps too and I have nearly all of their games and would trust anything else they produce to be good.


  6. Could be interesting news. He definitely "removed" his account after the Ned Luke news broke, but perhaps he's re-activated it and removed Rockstar Games from his following list and the GTA post he made. It's possible he/Rockstar didn't notice the connection with Young Maylay and Pooh Head. His old account wasn't verified either. Worth keeping an eye on. Good find :)

    In addition: https://twitter.com/#!/EsSolo118 - That guy is followed by Ned Luke and has also been tweeting to DJ Pooh. Could be that he plays a character in the game as it says he's an actor and he's from California. Urr, and he follows Rockstar Games, DJ Pooh and Young Maylay (all one after the other).

    Detective Riotz is onto something here...
