Perfect your portfolio
In the final instalment of this three-part guide to creating an online portfolio, Richard Guest reveals the techniques he uses to add those all-important finishing touches to best show off his design work.
In the final part of this three-part tutorial you'll be concentrating on fleshing out the core functionality you built up in parts one and two. I've written this tutorial in a way that lets you pick and choose bits of functionality to suit your needs. If you don't want it, just skip ahead. It's a fairly modular system so the other sections will still work.
Here I'll be showing you how to make additional pages for multiple collections. I'll describe how to add other pages - a homepage, for example - that can add the finishing touches and make your portfolio site feel complete. This will obviously need some graphic design consideration, but it will be easier to work your design into the structure I've provided once you have it all working the way you want. Finally, we'll take a brief look at how to load-in animated and interactive slides. So let's get started.
