Amateur-ness

This was my first interactive website, built when I was 16. It certainly looked and behaved like a first website, I know. I knew how to program but did not know what to do with the random skill I picked up. I did surf a lot of random art communities back then though and figured I should make my own.

I blurred out all personal info. Enjoy knowing this is what I built long ago. The office got a good laugh.

The front page. I didn't know how to make real thumbnails back then so the images were kind of squished and blurry.

The dropdown navigation would bring you to a lovely page like this.

After clicking on the name of your work, you could finally see a thumbnail.

I never ended up finishing learning graphics. It would seem that was the best outcome for everyone.

Profiles had so much to offer the artists ;)

So what do you guys think? Would you rather be on Behance, or my first network? I think I'll stick with Behance. Thank God I'm not the designer.

Yay! I also made a scale version of my room before realizing that 3d wasn't my cup of tea :)

I like websites.

Fantastic idea to show your first work. That gives me an idea... /me runs off to boxes in basement

Further tinkering on old work isn't the way to go, but you can see how you've thought in the past and what that can rehash for your processes now.

I love how every website from this period seemed to have been hacked out of components from a budget robot. The good ones even had little looping animations and sound, to be downloaded over dial up. Like pushing a flailing cyborg monkey through a drinking straw.

I find old work terrifying. I can look back and see that it's awful, which makes me wonder if what I'm making now is also awful and I don't have the perspective to see that yet.
