I want to make a portfolio site. I was thinking of running it on Wordpress so I could constantly update the main page with a blog. How would I make the "resume", "projects', etc. pages fit in (these would not be blog-like), just an about page, thumbnails of graphic work, clips of video work, etc. I'm guessing their's plugins? But, I've yet to use Wordpress for this type of site so I was wondering if Wordpress was even the right thing to use or should I just go with creating a website. Thanks.
Yes, wordpress will work well, once installed and in your admin panel you can create a single page for "resume", "projects', etc, under manage>>pages
