Well, in recent months I've been in the market looking to find a portfolio site to be home to my work while I rebuild the Banana Grafeeks website... I had been offered an invitaiton to join TAXI at a discounted rate for the year, and decided it could work for me... but after using it for a few months I have to admit that it's upscale design look leaves something to be desired in the communication department.

Rather than feeling like they are getting my work viewed by the masses, as promised, I've begun to feel like it's a site more geared towards photographers and industry news.

So I kept looking. Did I find something? You better Behance it!

Behance is FREE portfolio site... and blows it's competition out of the water! (In this artist's humble opinion :) Add the clean line and thoughtful design interface I crave with the bonus of having more control over my portfolio and I'm impressed. Projects are set up as modules you customize, and you can upload as many projects as you want (projects can include images, mp3's, video and text). Features like statisics and watch groups, comments, messages, and transmissions make it fun to communicate and encourage the community to grow. There's even a 'inner circle' feature that can function as you own mini network of like minded peers... all these site features allow one to interact with the professionals it brings together productively. Round it out with public 'Circles', a place for 'Tip Exchange', and the 'JobList' and you're looking at a positively positive profile experience! .. and too many P's, I love it!
