I generally design community levels for Hammer SDK and various RTS based games.  Please stop by my portfolio and tell me what you think.

i spend about 10 clicks on your website and still didn't see any levels (apart from those banners) this will not get you a job.

Hey there Nick ! 

 

Totally agree with what Warby said. Basically, with zero click I should be able to see concrete work (zero click = first page I see when the site loads). Also... just be sure to correct any easy spelling errors like "couter strike" (on the home page). In the mods section, I wanted to have a close look at your "contributions" but couldn't. The images are very small and there's no link to enlarge them. Usually you want to keep your audience (whoever that is... HR... other devs looking for possible employees) on your web page as much as possible. Couple of clicks in and I'm browsing through a lot of different websites... Game Banana... Moddb. The first thing I thought when clicking the banners was... "okay let's look at his explanations of his design decisions and map layout... oh what's this... a very colorful website... oh... not what I expected" and then I went back and didn't really looked at what was on that page. If you're looking for a job... just tell yourself people on the other end have very little time to look over stuff and get annoyed very quickly when they expect something and don't get it. The snappiest you are the better.

 

Hope that helps (shish I wrote a freaking book o_o).

Thank you for the lengthy feedback.  I've been looking around the portfolio section to get some ideas about free website design sites.  Which I then found weebly, so this will hopefully allow me to expand me content to a much broader scale in terms of displaying.
