Shamelessly ganked (including the title) from my clan's BBS: This Person Officially Has Too Much Time.

heheh nice
while I'm here, I figure I'll drop a little link to the preliminary stages of my portfolio
http://www.hgames.com/portfolio/early.html
gonna have some stuff I've written (reviews and such) and graphics I've done.

Nice job Tom,
Keep track of links to everything you've done. If you've got the HD space save the actual HTML pages as well.
I've never regretted it myself.
Mine's a purely business page though, nothing artsy like Bauman or yours...
www.andrewbub.com
PS: I think those Q-Tips are actually really cool...

I had all my old links and such... but then GameSpy shut down the XtremeNetwork, and erased the servers (which happened to contain all my stuff)... that was about a day before I was going to back it all up heh.

Wow, my website is artsy! Excellent! Thanks! I think.
Wait, it's probably pretenious, soulless, psuedo-art house nonsense.

Sure, I've lost all kinds of stuff that way. Old Gamepen, OGR, Happy Puppy redesigns and the nasty fact that USA Today doesn't store anything for longer than two months (took me a bit too long to catch on to that).
Just format the best of the lost work yourself (I assume you still have the submitted docs).
My own page is only so detailed because I have an archivist nature... the SAMPLES page is the only one of real importance/Use professionally speaking.

1. Pretenious? Soulless? Psuedo? Pass that bottle yer drinkin' there Steve!
2. Far from all three (imo). I like the icons and the overall style. But I confess, I didn't read your short fiction and I'm not much for Erica Kohnke's poetry. ;)

Bub... throw me an email. I need to build up my graphical portfolio, and I'd love to design somethin for ya (if you want, that is). Lemme know.
By Bub (Bub) on Sunday, April 29, 2001 - 02:02 pm:
That's an interesting offer Tom, thank you. I wouldn't be able to pay you however... But I sometimes do corporate copywriting/marketing work and, sometimes, that requires a graphic designer. It'd be nice to not turn those down and simply farm it out on occasion. Depending on the future market, that could be good for both of us.
I'll contact you later this week.
My email is: [email protected]

K, payment isn't necessary. I've been doing graphic design for free for years - I don't expect change anytime soon ;)

You seem to be confusing the music of Sleater-Kinney with your web page, Steve. I do like your web site. I even like the S-K page, which includes helpful musical clips so people can form their own opinions.
Speaking of which, it is just an opinion, Steve, not a personal attack on you, your dog, and your grandmother. ;)
