• It is not shown here, although one of the potential features of this concept would be an improvement to the About Me/WIWO. When logged in, you would be able to change your About Me to something else (Ex: it could say ‘What I do’ or ‘Shoutouts’). If both columns had the same descriptor, they will merge together, making only 1 box (so you could have a 500 character About me instead of a 250 character one with a WIWO. I think this will add more customization, and would make it so people have more room to type.
  PROOF OF CONCEPT:
  
  

• Easier Navigation. You may notice that there are no ‘show all’ buttons. You also might notice the text for ‘Projects’, ‘Studios’, or ‘Followers’ is blue. I think instead of a show all button, you just have to click the text itself. Favorite projects? Just click the text that says ‘favorites’. While it might take getting used to, I think it would assist in making the site easier to navigate.
  

• The shape of the different sections. When designing this concept, I wanted to make it look fun and interesting by adding different sized and shaped things. A downside to this would be the ‘aesthetic’ studios. The favorite projects section, and the studio section, have been limited to 2 items seen at a time. This would break the ‘I don’t follow studios’ text art. This would lead to many profiles simply saying ‘I don’t’, and it would lead to some anger.
  

• it can be confusing. That’s it. The changes could be confusing to some users, new and old. For example, the following and followers sections are combined. That was just an idea, and it probably won’t work as well as I assumed
  

• I didn’t end up adding the ‘scroll arrows’ (found in the ‘projects’ area). The arrows still exist.
  

• Didn’t demonstrate the Recent Activity area. I was thinking either it being just text (like it is right now), or making it so it shows you the project thumbnail (so you can see a better representation of what project they loved, or who they followed.

Wow! Thanks for sketching on this. You have some great ideas for the profile page. Love how you incorporated some of the new design from the project page. Also cool to see how you shifted the scale of elements on the page: there is a lot more emphasis on the “Featured Project”.

We are really excited to keep working on all the pages that still need to be updated, especially the Profile page. We will def refer back to some of your ideas and things you explored when we start redesigning the Profile page.

I'll be honest, I prefer the layout of the current system. I like how there are neat rows of everything in the current version, whereas your idea gives us areas that don't exactly look sorted, especially “Favorites” — it just seems out of place. In particular, I think “Recent Activity” might be a bit small in your version.

That being said, I'm all for updating the profile page to look more like the project page. The sleek design is definitely cool, and you have some other cool ideas (clicking on the “favorites” text rather than “show all”). I really like the picture you present here — I just think the overall layout should look similar to what we currently have.
