G. Henry Schmitt - Level Designer

[slowdevelopment]

Hey,

I'm planning updates to my portfolio and would appreciate any criticism I can get.

What should I change, what should I add - I have a good deal of work that isn't documented yet so hopefully if I can get a sense of what's most lacking on the site I'll know what to focus on first.

Any feedback at all - on the work itself or on the layout / navigation of the site, resume, etc. - is greatly appreciated.

Thank you,

I like your new layout alot better.

In chrome there is a white space at the bottom if the content doesn't fill up the whole body.

I think content-wise that it's a pretty strong portfolio for a technical level designer. The layout is doing its job as well, although I don't really see why you've divided you individual work and your team work on two different pages. There's a risk that a potential employer miss out on the team work part since it takes further navigation to get there, and also it would feel more natural keeping those on the same page, only dividing them somehow by stating they are team work. Another nice addition to your page would be to add in your resume in the html on the resume page so it's readily available without having to download it, but still keeping the option of downloading it in different formats.

Also, it's like a knife stab to my artist heart to see default bevel & emboss and inner glow on these fonts and images. Keep it simple and remove all the cluttering effects to keep your portfolio more professional looking and more consistent.

Best of luck!

Thank you for the advice!

I've moved all of my projects onto the front page now, simplified the resume page, and figured out how to get rid of the weirdness with Chrome, so now it works equally well in all three main browsers. I also started putting up pages for some Unity projects, and I'm working on getting thumbnails up without the glow border.

Any other advice on how I can improve it?

Where are the download links for your UT/GOW levels and scripting projects? I only saw a download link for your HL2 pinball machine project.
