Have you got your first designed site, graphic, logo???

[matauri]

I've notice recently that we have had an influx of fresh youth gnawing at the bit to be web designers. Unfortunately sometimes we have to give them bad reviews to steer them on the right path, but you know what its like to be young...everything jsut has to happen 'now' :-)

So... Because we have such talented people in here, I thought we could show by way of example.

How many of you have the first website,graphic or logo that you ever did??? No polishing them up...they have to be as they were when you first put it up & thought you had done a good job :-)

So fess up pros.....lets see those skeletons !! ;-)

(I will have to dig thru some cd's for mine)

A trudge down memory lane. I've thankfully watched as every website that I first did, minus my personal sites, be made over to appear normal. I'm not sure what normal is, but it definately wasn't what I first created.

I did, however, save the banners from the sites I made and some of the logo's (It's scary!!!). I posted them in a temp file on my site so I can quickly delete them. :)

Well lets see the first logo I ever did was for the University of Victoria Ballroom Dance club. They no longer use it because I have never been paid for it. This happened to me a cuople of times so now I shy away from logos. I will try to post my first web site soon.

I froze my computer trying to drag'n'drop the URLs to my desktop!

1 year later, no more of a design eye, but much better on the navigation!

Sorry folks can't help here as my first proper public site was way back in '94 for an ISP and has long long gone - as has the company. Also as 95% of all my work in intranet not inter I can't even let you see most of my recent stuff :(

I'll post this one for my 15 year old son.
It is a site he is supposed to be working on for our temple... his concept was picked over others submitted by "professional" web designers. He got this far and has kind of just left it sit. Maybe some feedback will inspire him.
