Hey, you guys found my old website! It's in sore need of some upkeep, I haven't touched it since the week I built it when I was in school :(

I understand what you're getting at re:scan-nability and info denseness, but I believe that is what a resume for. I'm not trying to use my website as a resume, I'm trying to establish a digital presence and show off my work. If I weren't a designer and front end person, having an online resume might be the goal, but this is a portfolio.

It has many problems that I hope to fix, but using visual aides are not one of them :) Anyways, thanks for taking the time to look at it. I adore Sarah Drasner's work too, she's one of my favorite people!

Thanks for the reply and the additional context. I hadn't considered that from the perspective of why you're showing what you're showing. Naturally design is visual, and difficult to show effectively using small chunks of text.

(But my feelings on scroll allthethings remain unchanged :D )
