To the resume showing/not showing stuff:

I don't know if it's a problem that it's getting used without your permission, but I wouldn't worry about customizing it. If you redirect a potential employer to your site that means you have already sent some sort of application to him (ie "covering letter"). You can (=must) customize that. If you want to apply to a totally different position (so the resume is off), send a customized resume with your letter too.

Alright well I'm working on a new design (changed the colors for now). Until I have that up, does anyone have any input on the portfolio and code samples? And any opinions on my initial questions would be greatly appreciated:

2. What problems do you see with my code samples? 3. Should I even bother posting code that doesn't compile by itself (part of a larger system)? 4. Should I bother posting the pre-alpha C# code samples for variety in languages, or will it only hurt me having samples which aren't finished or very impressive?

Thanks!

[edit] Oh, and I put my resume back up as well.

The colours (although if anything worse than the original palette) are not your main problem - get rid of those textures asap.

Also note that Safari/Chrome seem to mess up the spacing on your header.

Lack of documentation. Source code doesn't belong unless it is thoroughly documented, or at the very least the interface thoroughly commented.

Not IMO. Either package it up as a (well documented) standalone library, or integrate it in a minimal sample.

Regardless of whether it will hurt you, if the code isn't clean and well documented, it isn't going to help you either.

Your resume looks pretty solid, and black-on-white is a good design choice [smile]
