Thanks for the plug! Though, maybe you’d like to let the Flash file load before taking the screenshot :)

Most of them are nice indeed, some are rather standard and not impressive at all.

Lovely collection, I’ve seen a number of these sites doing the rounds but there’s a couple of new ones I’ve not seen before.

Some are really nice but I don’t understand what number 23 is doing in a list of impressive portfolio designs as his header text is barely readable.

Great portfolios. I’m still on the process of redesigning my site. I hope it will also be featured here… soon! lol :)

Adam Little

Thanks for featuring our site, Thomas!

Also, I agree with Darren Emory, you may want to take a new screenshot of Reformata that doesn’t have an empty white rectangle dominating the page. :)

Hello everyone, I apologize for the Reformata mistake – I dropped the ball on updating the screen capture. Thomas Hardy: Thanks for sending me the replacement quickly, I appreciate your responsiveness and I look forward to more of your posts here on Six Revisions!

@Armig…nice work………….keeeeeeeeeeeeeeeepit uppppppppppppp….!

not bad!

Although it seems some sites in tis list are blatant copies of other sites or their typography. E.G. Finch and carsonified…. the logo font looks rather similar!!!

Shame this list was not checked to see if the designer is plagiarising any other designers work!!!

Real nice collection!

Here’s my new one: http://www.thomaselfrink.com
