Topic: Haroldwithers.co.uk gets a much needed update

Has been a long time coming but my on-line portfolio:

www.haroldwithers.co.uk

(I know, imaginative title yes? ; P ) gets a much overdue update. I hadn't updated it for over 4 years which is just criminal. My copy of Dreamweaver went the way of the Dodo which kinda scuppered any efforts to update it, but getting a new copy recently gave me the chance to do a bit of a clear out and spruce up, and now she's ready to set sail on the interwebs again with stacks of brand new content.

The site now features a games work specific section featuring all of my officially released game titles, which is now bang up to date with such releases as Sonic & Sega All-stars Racing and Virtua Tennis 2009. There is also a new gameography page within the about me section, and plenty of new work to check out in the miscellaneous 3d and 2d sections. And of course there is a section dedicated to the mod First Strike which features plenty of behind the scenes work in progress images and in game screenshots.

Feel free to check it out and let me know what you think.



Regards,

TALON

Had fun looking through it, I like it.

A couple minor complaints though... While the content and descriptions are good, the website design doesn't do it for me. And when you click "more", and then you want to go to the previous page for some reason, clicking back brings you to the main page instead. A bit confusing, that.


Oh, and you are probably the only person I know who was happy to be arrested by StormTroopers. Hopefully the Rebels can get to you.

A fair point, that is intentional, with the 'Back' button taking you back to the root of that section, so in the 2d & 3d sections this would take you back to the homepage, but with the areas with subsections this would just take you back to the section they're based in. The idea was that you would be able to get back to the root in one click rather than having to click back through all the pages you'd just looked through, but you could be right and it might be better to go with a more traditional back one page function, especially if it is resulting in confusion, which is easy enough to implement.

When you're working closely on something for a time occasionly your logic becomes skewed, and odd things that seem to make perfect sense to you sometimes need an outside eye to pick up on. So thanks for the constructive crit.

Isn't First Strike on 1.55? It says in your First Strike Section it's on 1.5
