Think Luke
A slick portfolio site that features a massive central slideshow! The use of a scrolling gallery of recent work is excellent and perfectly showcases the company\'s diversity. I like the use of green to add interest to an otherwise monochrome layout!

James Oconnell
The personal portfolio of James O\'Connell features a screen-wide slideshow that makes a great impact. As a designer it\'s vital to showcase your work and design philosophy to any prospective clients and this is achieved here using a gallery of James\' recent work. I like the subtlety of the dark grey text on the light grey background. It\'s not something that immediately makes sense, but that works perfectly to allow the colourful designs to grab your attention.

An excellent portfolio site that immediately draws you in! The use of a gallery as the central focus works and brings colour and life to the site. I particularly like the little details that make all the difference. Details such as the arrows that guide you in and the ripped effect of the gallery items.

Sko Design Lab
An excellent site for a web design company that adequately showcases its ability to create beautiful graphics and websites. The use of a portfolio slideshow is a common but effective tool for holding the visitors attention! I love the portrayal of the simple company logo on a scrap of notepaper!

Instix
An interesting site for a web portfolio. The graphic on the right is intriguing and certainly makes an impact but the overall spacing feels slightly off - the redundant gap beneath the header is screaming for attention! Overall, the black and silver approach is stylish but could benefit from some colour.

I\'m in two minds about this site. I like the simplistic header and the contrasting use of orange against the white of the background, but the central slideshow doesn\'t quite fit with the overall design. Having a showcase of your company\'s portfolio is an effective way to hold a visitors attention but in this example it almost stands out too much!

A straightforward but undeniably effective portfolio for a web designer. The intuitive header is good and I like the size and readability of the main typeface. The coffee mug and cookie design is a nice touch and adds interest to the focal area of the site.

A simple but effective portfolio site. The design showcase in the centre works well, as does the gallery section below. I like the uncluttered nature of the site and the manageable content.

A great portfolio site that effectively uses coloured borders to grab your attention. The logo is simple but is recognisable and makes a good statement. I particularly like the fun central illustration.

Alexanderkryska
A good portfolio site that utilises a scrolling central display. The use of a photograph of the designer in the background is effective and makes a good statement. I particularly like the bold typeface and use of text throughout the site.

You expect design portfolios to be good and this is no exception. The bold use of text and colour makes for a friendly and welcoming site that urges you to read on! I\'m not a huge fan of the background colour but the beautiful typefaces used throughout more than make up for it.

A brilliant site for a graphic and web design studio. The slideshow of portfolio designs acts as a great focal point. The logo is well sized and works well against within the overall layout.

An extremely stylish portfolio site. It exemplifies great use of space and a neutral palette. Of particular note is the use of a large portrait as the focal point, something which I find really works!

Brokedesign
An outstanding design portfolio site. Immediately draws your attention to the dramatic design in the centre and leads you to enquire further. The use of polaroids as thumbnails is great and I also like the contrast of the bright primary colours with the black and white interface of the site.

Viccolla
A ridiculously minimalistic site with a centred logo and a clear description of the company. The logo is a great focal point and the simple layout guides users straight to the portfolio and testimonials.

A bizarre but attractive portfolio site with plenty of stellar work on display. The heads are used as a recurring theme to show the relation of visual design to UX in each project. An interesting idea!

A nice looking portfolio with an interesting theme. I actually like the footer best and have featured this portion of the site above.

We do not see many painter portfolios so I wanted to feature this one. There is some really nice work on display and the site is fairly well designed. I particularly like the Apple-like 3D display of the art pieces near the bottom.

NeedStyle
A refreshingly original designer portfolio with lots of personalization. Obviously, the large letterpress effect is the hero of the design and really grabs your attention with contrast.
