I think your UI work is good! Since you're trying to focus in on that, like some other commenters have said, I would remove the other projects (or at least put them in a different, less-emphasized section. And then on your UI projects, you can include more images / screens that show the UI work. I like how many screens you show on the music app. Maybe try showcasing that many screens on Userlane as well.

I also think it's really important to have your own site. It's like an additional portfolio piece in itself to show you can design a good showcase of your own work.

Good luck!

Hi Thomas! Thanks for all the insight. I'm bummed to hear that's how spirituality can be perceived but I totally get it. There have been a lot of negative connotations / hatred stemming from what people have called Christianity over the years and while I don't identify at all with that (and believe it not to be real christianity in the first place), I definitely don't want to possibly be associated with that by people looking at my design work.

As for the personal branding, I can see where you're coming from there. Many years ago a former design mentor gave me and some of my peers the advice to not create a personal brand and to just let the work speak for itself. His basic idea was that designers should be presented as people, not brands. Maybe outdated advice at this point, but I still think that way.

Thanks Daniel!

Hey Adam, that's a good point. I updated it this morning so that the gifs don't load on mobile and there is a lightweight static image instead. That way, I wont be forcing users to eat up megabytes on their data plans.

Thans Madison! That's exactly why I wanted to add the gifs so I'm glad you felt the same way! For the frames, each one is a sketch file with a clipping mask that has a black outline and drop-shadow the same color as the background. And the color is a lightened version of the main project color. I hope that helps!

Hey there! I was thinking of doing that so your suggestion pushed me over the edge. I sped it up enough that it feels significantly faster but you can still see the transition animation. Let me know what you think of it now!

Hey Prajwal, Thanks for pointing out that broken link! I fixed that right away. As for the auto-playing gifs, I'd have to rework how it's built since there's no good way of delaying a gif from playing, that I'm aware of. But maybe I could make them videos! I'll look into it!

Thanks Milo! I'm glad you like the new site!

Thanks a lot Brandon! I appreciate the feedback. And I fixed that typo. Good catch!
