Switching to Adobe Portfolio

NessIllustration

@Amanda-Jean Your website looks great, you did a really good job!

Hi @NessIllustration I was wondering how did you manage to make that theme look like that? Organize it that way, it is super easy to navigate and exactly what I was going for but I couldn't figure it out. A little help?

This is my site: https://jasdroide.myportfolio.com

@Jose-A-Nieto Actually your site looks quite a lot like mine design wise, it's just that you have more categories Like in your header you have Illustration, Storyboard and Character design whereas I just have "My work". Inside the my work section I made 3 subcategories. I think yours gets a little harder to navigate because you have 3 categories in your header, and more subcategories to that. For example, your Illustration category is divided by projects, but that not necessary. I think you ended up like this because you imported your projects from Behance, yeah? Instead, for each header category you can create a blank page, then use the "grid" widget to import all your illustration. That's all I made the masonry grid on my site

Jose A Nieto

@NessIllustration Yeah, I imported it all from Behance. I'll import everything manually then, I like yours way better than mine

Thanks!

@Jose-A-Nieto I think your site looks really good i dont see any problems.

Jose A Nieto

@DOTTYP Thanks! It is ok, but Ness's is easier to navigate

Update: I FINALLY managed to connect my domain, which was unnecessarily confusing and convoluted LOL.. If you're making an Adobe Portfolio site I'd recommend just buying your domain through them and save yourself the trouble. I already had my domain with Go Daddy and the instructions were so techy and insufficient that I ended up having to look up tutorials to figure out what I was missing. Ah well, all done now!

@NessIllustration Ha! Yep, I experienced that too. Adding a subdomain was a toothache and a half as well!! But I've had my domain for a few years with GoDaddy, so didn't really consider changing over.

I also have adobe portfolio, very happy with it, bought some domain, and like @NessIllustration it wasn't easy intergrations, but it works now.

NessIllustration

@MichaelaH They should really fix that!
