I’ve lately seen some incredible portfolios built on a platform called http://www.ahead.com. Works like a DTP tool so you can layout your work in high res anyway you want and on top of that you can zoom in to it.Sweet.

[...] terms, it’s very useful for non-creatives who don’t have a profile elsewhere on a portfolio website, but I actually think it’s worth having for creatives [...]

Also your welcome to join http://www.voodoochilli.net, a smaller but more specialist online portfolio for visual artist. It focuses more on traditional art rather than design but its open to anyone anyway.

I think behance.net has helped me the most, although I have tried the others as well. Behance.net is preferred because it is 100% free, pushes your projects to other sites as well (like PhotographyServed.com am others), and you get an add-free version by adding /frame to your behance.net URL.

I think indexhibit is great. It is really tailor made to show visual work and although one can tweek content and look with css etc, it works pretty efficiently straight out of the box. It’s clean and simple and gets the message across and is user friendly.

Thanks for the shout-out Mark! deviantART’s launch of Portfolio has been spectacular. We already have thousands of artists using our Portfolio, only days after launch.

We hope it gives all artists the edge on the college application and the job search!

Thanks Rus – I will look at indexhibit and I agree about Krop, although their free package is limited to 10 images.

Thanks Panos – I agree about Tumblr and had planned to add this to the article soon. I also like Posterous, which is similar.

Thanks for all these. I think something missing is the great Tumblr platform as a blog hosting service, with its amazing CMS, customisation options and overall a great community..

Great list. Creatives should also consider the veteran in this space, indexhibit as well as the new and super glossy Krop Portfolio.
