30 Minute Redesign #98: James Willney
Today I’m going to be redesigning James Willney, a painter, photography and graphic designer.
The Original Design:

First Impressions: Strengths
Every site has some merits, and the good impressions I made here are these:
James’ Work is Prominently Displayed
With any kind of portfolio site like this it’s crucial to display your work prominently, as it is your work that sells you.
James’ does a good job of this, making his work the true centerpiece of his website’s homepage, using a large image of one of his paintings to act as a type of landing page.
This instantly sells his services to potential prospects.

I wish my site to be considered for redesign
Thanks for the suggestion David. I’ll definitely try and redesign your site in an upcoming week. -Tom.
Waiting Thanks
no redesign segment again on this site?
It’s coming back really soon, thanks for the interest David. I’ve just been incredibly busy organizing some growth for this site and organizing the launch of our new site: http://mydesigndeals.com. I’m definitely not done with the 30 minute series though!
It seems my favourite segment will no longer feature here
It’s coming back soon. Don’t worry David
