But sometimes creating a personal portfolio might seem to be a real challenge for some people, as it requires some aspects to be taken into consideration: creativity, usability, the ease of use and of course professional look. You should also define the purpose of your portfolio: whether it is for sales generation, reputation building, networking or finding a new job. So, you need to understand what kind of portfolio you are creating. And just remember, there is no any single “right” way of creating portfolios, as it’s something personal that expresses your personality.

And just imagine what incredible things you can do with Flash: amazing animation and dynamic effects, beautiful sound accompaniment, page transition animation, extraordinary website navigation, etc. Flash technology allows you to realize the most audacious approaches what will make your portfolio original, vivid and eye-catching.
