    Evening all, just finished my new portfolio layout, if you fine people could have a look around and report any issues that'd be fantastic. :)

    Nice work. I recall seeing your F1 pieces on some design blog a while back.

    Wow. Good Job.

    Very nice indeed. Its a different layout to what one normally finds and thats refreshing. And it works well too which is vital.

    I cant think of any criticism. I love the "shop" too, have you ever thought of doing TShirts?

    www.zazzle.com is a "fullfillment" company, you make a "shop" on their site and then link to it, but you can do TShirts and they have some amazing options for framing prints/poster etc. Although obviously your focus is getting new clients not selling shirts...

    Anyway great job. I'm impressed.

    Yes, it's a modified version of a theme from CargoCollective: http://cargocollective.com/

    Here's more portfolios using that theme: http://cargocollective.com/showcase/filter/spacecollective

    Cargo in itself is a great service and one worth getting an invite for. A limited version is available for free with the whole thing available at $60 a year. If you're looking for a free alternative check out Behance and their ProSite system. :)

    The notion of doing T-Shirts has crossed my mind a few times and I'll probably give it a go in future. I'd like to organise it through my own store (powered by BigCartel, if any of you want to set up your own) which means either ordering a batch of shirts online that I can ship, or finding a place locally that does them. My current style of work is a little too detailed for shirts in my opinion, but I've been thinking about a wipeout-styled series based on the logos I made for a few projects: http://pjtierney.net/#1154829/Fiorano

    You're right in assuming that I'm aiming for clients first though :)
    The plan for 2011 was to create the best portfolio I could, and then expand on that in 2012 while pushing to get work.

    I'm seriously impressed!! Vector or Photoshop? Either way clean lines, gorgeous colour schemes and the way everything is at a wee bit of an angle is a good way to identify your work - It says: "this is a PJ Tierny piece".

    Icarus: The F1 stuff is mainly Vector with photoshop for colour/texture at the end.

    P: I'll take that on board :)
