Hi Taina, I have been using Cargo for 6-7 years and really like it (https://urldefense.proofpoint.com/v2/url?u=https-3A__cargo.site&d=DwIFaQ&c=Cu5g146wZdoqVuKpTNsYHeFX_rg6kWhlkLF8Eft-wwo&r=AGYZ7-AeerjxzYnIwL-lBLFI3SPYN3BDmku4qGQB4Tg&m=C0dFwcdvC5wTOIwL7DQ101VWxOkKqcVski3_Y5PACnQ&s=0XwCwf30PfM-DaHTOxiiVH8EAzkb4C4-WPNfdN_PN3k&e= ). They offer a range of templates that appear a bit “edgier” than traditional, but my own site does not look particularly ground-breaking - it’s really all about customizing their assorted layouts to fit your idea (it also looks like they now have a variety of options that include animated components, which were not available when I signed up). I love the ease of use with Cargo programming - updating or adding projects is super easy, and they have an expansive online knowledge base that you can tap into if you have questions (never as frustrating to trouble-shoot as I expect). I did end up having a friend do some customization for me (vey minor aesthetic adjustment) and I think that required a paid-level subscription, but they do offer free plans. Here’s what I’ve made of it for my main portfolio: https://urldefense.proofpoint.com/v2/url?u=https-3A__www.natalya.com&d=DwIFaQ&c=Cu5g146wZdoqVuKpTNsYHeFX_rg6kWhlkLF8Eft-wwo&r=AGYZ7-AeerjxzYnIwL-lBLFI3SPYN3BDmku4qGQB4Tg&m=C0dFwcdvC5wTOIwL7DQ101VWxOkKqcVski3_Y5PACnQ&s=Agt3rSC3_moV6gFkQjxkOegmtcie82nL6OwrxdfJ0Y8&e= I also set up a second portfolio site specifically for a residency I did a few years ago - template/format is very different (side scroll!), but also through Cargo: https://urldefense.proofpoint.com/v2/url?u=http-3A__www.peregrinationz.xyz&d=DwIFaQ&c=Cu5g146wZdoqVuKpTNsYHeFX_rg6kWhlkLF8Eft-wwo&r=AGYZ7-AeerjxzYnIwL-lBLFI3SPYN3BDmku4qGQB4Tg&m=C0dFwcdvC5wTOIwL7DQ101VWxOkKqcVski3_Y5PACnQ&s=lejnvQgk0rSxPkUUGqGUXZ4sCG2TkV4JBWfsfoCv_oE&e= Please share whatever you end up choosing and designing - would love to see how it turns out! -Natalya Natalya Zahn https://urldefense.proofpoint.com/v2/url?u=http-3A__www.natalya.com&d=DwIFaQ&c=Cu5g146wZdoqVuKpTNsYHeFX_rg6kWhlkLF8Eft-wwo&r=AGYZ7-AeerjxzYnIwL-lBLFI3SPYN3BDmku4qGQB4Tg&m=C0dFwcdvC5wTOIwL7DQ101VWxOkKqcVski3_Y5PACnQ&s=tIouMaYzrpI6pJRLOxiUZZX7WQqsqZdfat6DWGIcHFE&e= [log in to unmask] 617-301-0494 > On Apr 30, 2020, at 12:30 PM, Taina Litwak <[log in to unmask]> wrote: > > Hi all- > > I do not have a functional web site at this point.
