<div class="IPBDescription">My first website.</div>Many thanks to Ken20banks and Comprox with helping me put together my FIRST SITE. This has been created with the intention of being shown to colleges as my portfolio.

You'll find many latest Hera pictures and two exclusive Tutorial map pictures. There's also a small section with some of my 2D art. (Note, the building concept design probably won't appear in NS after all - but I had to say it was SOMETHING.)

Where is it, you ask? In my signature!

    Some of those drawings of yours are quite interesting, to be sure.  I really like the space alien one.  And the commander room for the tutorial map looks to be one of the best command areas I've seen in any map so far.  Lots of good work! <!--emo&:)--><img src="http://www.natural-selection.org/iB_html/non-cgi/emoticons/smile.gif" border="0" valign="absmiddle" alt=':)'><!--endemo-->

    The artwork itself is great, but the site-design is a bit... well, there isn't a design in my opinion. Perhaps you can try to make a colorscheme, not only a  black background.

    does there need to be a site design?  If he is using this as a portfolio, which he is, then you dont want the person looking at it to be have to click all these links and navaigte a big ol site.  One page, nice and simple -- a very well done portfolio!

    I think it's simple and wonderful.  Your work continually stuns me.

    The one thing I can suggest is adding a border to your images.  I think a simple 1-pixel wide light border around all your images would be a nice touch.

    Has anyone quite noticed yet that...

    A) There are two screenshots from the tutorial level? (WOW... Looks incredible&#33<!--emo&;)--><img src="http://www.natural-selection.org/iB_html/non-cgi/emoticons/wink.gif" border="0" valign="absmiddle" alt=';)'><!--endemo-->

    B) A screenshot of the CC? I don't think one of those has been shown yet from in game.

    Uh-oh, Merk leaked stuff, this is more serious than putting a release date on NS. <!--emo&:p--><img src="http://www.natural-selection.org/iB_html/non-cgi/emoticons/tounge.gif" border="0" valign="absmiddle" alt=':p'><!--endemo-->

    Well, the CC model has been shown on PHL before. And also, where better to see it first in-game than in the tutorial level? So long as it looks good, I don't think it matters much where you see it <!--emo&:)--><img src="http://www.natural-selection.org/iB_html/non-cgi/emoticons/smile.gif" border="0" valign="absmiddle" alt=':)'><!--endemo-->

    Right. (That's why I said 'In-Game', cause there'd been one on PHL.)

    And it does look good.

    You might want to get rid of that


    Otherwise it looks great.

    Made a few changes. Don't forget to check out the...uh...'secret' area. (Click on the sun.)

    Small problem though. The page now has javascript which opens up the images in a neatly sized window, but in the process of doing this it halts the .gif animation. Anyone have any idea why this is happening, and how to fix it?

    as to the tutorial, by the looks of it, it seems to be placed on the station in first story in the world section, is it?
