Upload your own resume

Friday, April 10th, 2009

The ability to upload your own resume instead of recreating one is in place. In the same area as before you’ll see the Add/Edit Resume button. Once you click that you’ll select whether you’d like to use our wizard or upload your own. Click upload your own, add your resume, click upload, and rejoice.

They still need to be PDF files. We don’t tolerate other formats because… well… no.

Watermark your online portfolio

Wednesday, April 8th, 2009

Lately we’ve been getting a lot of requests for the ability to watermark your images. I’ve always thought, “hey, if you want your images watermarked, why not do it before uploading them?” It turns out, get this, people tend to like things done for them! Who knew?

We added a nifty little tool that lets you upload a watermark image (I personally suggest you go with a 24-bit transparent PNG for best results) to keep on file and add to images as you upload them. With the new multi-upload tool, you can pretty much gather a big set of images for your project, attach them to the uploader, click the little “Add watermark?” option, and upload away.

All your images will be automagically watermarked. If you don’t upload a watermark image they’ll be watermarked with our logo. You don’t have to go very far to upload one; you can upload a watermark in the settings area or from the box that opens up when you select the “Add watermark?” checkbox when uploading.

Happy showcasing!

Multiple file uploads for your portfolio

Monday, April 6th, 2009

You asked, we listened. You can now upload multiple files rather than one at a time, up to 20 at a time.

What’s next? Well, a little robot is talking about accepting ZIP files full of images, so who knows…

Show us your external showcases

Wednesday, February 25th, 2009

In an effort to improve the site, we’re asking that anyone who uses the showcase embed script let us know where you’re using it so we can take a look at it. The more real-world usage we see the better we can fine-tune it to play nice with people’s various layouts, stylesheets, and settings.

You can leave a comment with the URL that’s using the script or drop an email, up to you. Actually, since not many people really read this blog (hi grandma and Googlebot!) on account of its relative newness and hush-hush-ness we’re going to ask the question within the site somehow.

In addition, if you have requests or suggestions for something you’d like to see added/removed to the embedded showcases, go ahead and ask. Don’t be shy.
