Why are they so different? What kind of image are you trying to portray? - Soul :s: ---

> Why are they so different? What kind of image are you trying to portray? Well, when I started out I was wanting to portray something that was very natural and showcased my photos. Yesterday, however, I asked blackpulp what he thought of version one and he thought the logo was the strongpoint. He liked the retro feel. I agreed with that and decided to try and build around the logo in the second site. ---

[http://members.cox.net/fazala/folio/goodflash.html](http://members.cox.net/fazala/folio/goodflash.html) cause there are more colors and somehow its more welcoming…the second one is red and very specific red that is somehow sad to me. I want to see it on the center…dunno I can judge better then. 😛 peace ---

good points with the dark red and centering. I centered them both and added a more ‘welcoming’ color to the second one. ---

good 🙂 I find that the font is a bit small, I’m on 1024 x 768 res. maybe size 6 or 8 would fit better. loose the scroll bar as there is anything to scroll yet I like the green nature thing going on 🙂 I love nature. The second one just killed me,😛 I 'm about to go to sleep and that color just woke me up, \*\*\*\* I need a cofi 😛 I say make first one a bit bigger like 600 x 400 at least and design in that space, make that imaging fly man:P I wanna see more!!! peace ---

I think 2 is too simple, and has too much contrast. So I go for #1. [Next page](https://forum.kirupa.com/t/portfolio-which-one-should-i-use/28176.md?page=2)
