she also includes how she made her portfolio.I like the way the design colour, changes, it gradualy goes from light green to dark green. i think she could have put in more pictures to make it more colourfull and interesting. i also think the text could have been less, because it wasnt that apeling. I think it was very organised and that was good.
The hyperlinks worked very well and it was organized well. by cliking on any on the headings which are found on the left hand side you are imediatly hyperlinkled to the page that the headings give.

I love the colourfulness in his portfolio, it is very apealing. it is also very organised but it could also have more pictures in it. The hyperlinks worked and everything was easy to find. It was alot like the other one in finding things.
