    I've launched my personal portfolio. The past few days I've been intensively focusing on UI/UX Design.

    I'll also be switching my university course from Graphics Design to Interaction Design as it's a new course being introduced this year. This means I can now fully focus in this field as I dream to become a professional in this field specifically.

    I've learned some UI animation and applied it on some of my designs, you can see on my site:

    Ameer Ashhab - UI Designer

    Other than that I look forward to expanding my knowledge on the psychology of user interaction and improving my designs.

    Update as of 8/18/2017: Changed to SquareSpace, a better portfolio building experience and a ton more options with custom css editing. Can now add more project information & images within the projects themselves.

    Personally I think the portfolio looks great. Although, my few minor gripes about it would be that there are ~11 .gif' on the front page which makes it slow down to a crawl until everything is loaded (This may be because I am on a low on end laptop, but it still an issue). The other minor thing which is down to my personal preference would be changing the background color to a dark shade of gray rather than stark black. Either way best of luck with your career.

    I'm paying a portfolio site every month, i have no idea why it's JS.

    I'm using portfoliobox, but im gonna switch to squarespace real soon because there are more options and what they offer is way better.

    Definitely stop using portfoliobox.
    If you really want to be a UX designer, I'd recommend writing your own site rather than using website builders.
    At the moment anyone who'd look to hire you, would inspect your site and see that you're not taking your career path seriously enough.

    What? I'm not going to agree with that unfortunately. There's allot of well known and highly skilled UI/UX/Graphic Designers who are using portfolios with squarespace as we speak. I'm pretty sure seriousness isn't measured by using a website builder, employers wouldn't care whether your using a website builder or not, they would only care to see your work, your process, and your thinking. Quite sure of it. I appreciate your concern regardless tbh.

    I'm choosing to do that as well because it is easier to manage. I'm not good enough yet either to write a portfolio site.

    I've already paid for SquareSpace and will be performing the switch.

    Really way better now, a smoother viewing experience. Can also add more images & information within the projects themselves.
