Portfolio Re-organize
Let’s do a mini spiff up of our portfolio’s. Reorganize your portfolio using the div structure we have discussed. Include a header, navigation, content, and footer section. You may do some minimal styling, font-size, color, some borders, etc. If you feel comfortable with Photoshop or Fireworks you may continue and begin using graphics.
