Edit: thank you for all information, it is really helpful 💖 I will check out pixelfed (.art) and go from there, maybe later setting up something “at home” ! Thanks again !!!

Hello !

I just got asked for a link to my paintings, and well I don’t have an art portfolio online and after trying some free ones out, I haven’t found anything nice (ease if useno nag-ware) so I thought of Devianart where lits of good pixel artists hanged around some ten years ago …

But I have heard Devianart is no longer recommended or the goto place for your portfolio, is that so (or not ofc!) and if, do you have any recommendations for a free online portfolio? Say 30-40 paintings tops.

I’m thinking about setting up something myself so self hosting (FOSS) recommendations are greatly appreciated too!

Cheers!

    I want a decent new art platform as much as everyone else but I’m not moving my entire portfolio over to a new service that, honestly, looks like it’ll be dead in 6-12 months.

    It might be worth self-hosting your own website.

      This is really the best option. It’s incredibly easy these days and let’s them incorporate an e-shop later.

      Although a lot of these platforms are about getting exposure as well.
