Portfolio help

I need you guys to help me put a portfolio together, meaning I need your ideas. <br><br>In an ideal world, my dream job would be just living off web design - but I know this is not possible as 1. I am not good enough, 2. The economy sucks, and 3. Everyone and their pet dog are making websites with all these programs and tools available these days. <br><br>However, I do know that it is possible (with the right advertising) that I could get at least one or two commissions every 6mo or so xD But before I look at advertising, I need ideas to put together demo websites/designs for a portfolio to tempt the people to come to meee!<br><br>First off I will not be doing every single idea, assuming I get a fair number as I won't have time :s But those that seem the most interesting I will do!<br><br>Pretend you own a business, and want a website for said business - be it for a general breed group (ie Hounds, Spaniels), or a particular breed (ie Weims), or an event/disc (ie Gun dogs, Flyball). Or it can be a mixture of those - for example fly ball collies. I could be for other things too I guess, but I think animal/farm based businesses would be easier for me XD<br><br>I would like you to provide me with:<br>
<span style="font-weight:bold">Business name:</span><br><span style="font-weight:bold">Slogon, or any extra text:</span><br><span style="font-weight:bold">Theme (breed/disc etc):</span><br><span style="font-weight:bold">Colour scheme:</span>
<br><br>Colour schemes can be picked from websites like: <a href="http://www.colourlovers.com/palettes/new"; target="_blank" class="bb-url">http://www.colourlovers.com/palettes/new</a><br>Also if you've seen any existing styles out there already, for example you like how they set the menu out then feel free to link me to the websites so I can see.<br><br>These should be 100% fictional, and should not be based on any existing business - as I don't want to get my ass kicked by the law! If you are interested in purchasing the designs afterwards, I will state now I am not taking any commissions in game and this is in no way a "commission me" thread in GD... This is I want your ideas, and not everyone looks in the artist section. I will not be selling the designs to general public, they are solely "demo" sites for my portfolio ^^<br><br>Any questions then please message me =)

  • Thanks for the ideas so far =D my evenings are being spent painting and decorating my living room/kitchen area in the house. But these are helpful to get me thinking. And sim you are weird! I hope there are stock photos of agility westies! <br><br>When I the designs put together I'll make a new thread in the art section for you guys to comment on them and provide feedback =)<br><br>Meant to be doing work but sat picking nail varnish off my nails. Testing is rather boring :/
