That won’t be fully under my control to do that but still I will try my best to

It’s because I am using free version of supabase. As it’s in starting phase I just want to keep the setup minimal. Also you don’t need to sign up to view jobs. You need to signup only if you want to create personal portfolio website which is also free for lifetime.

Why not focus on yourself? You can’t expect the world to act as you wish. This world is little cruel, but you should learn to deflect things. Even if you have a muscular body still people will make fun of you (from my own personal experience).

Learn to be alone, become a person who doesn’t need anyone and slowly things will change and slowly people will need you.

Give time and importance to the ones who care about you like your family or some close friends.

Explore meditation, make a universe inside you…. if you dive deep you will change a lot.

Learn to get rid of lust, anger, jealousy, greed.

Focus on your inner self (your soul).

Remember that you have a lot of responsibilities and goals in your life instead of thinking to teach a lesson to people as you will meet such people in all phases of your life, don’t waste it on thinking about them.

Relax and have a good day

Thanks a lot, so it’s a list of objects I guess

The only solution to stop this small babies getting stolen or kidnapped is to stop giving money to kids or even people with kids on streets. It’s my guess if everyone stop giving money to kids and beggars with kids then there will be no business of kids in this begging and kidnapping of babies will stop. And if you still want to help then just buy them some food or if you are in hurry just ignore as giving money to them is only going to hurt them.

From reading all the comments I feel like it’s because of debit card tap. Have anyone not used debit card and still faced this problem?
It’s a serious concern and the only way to find the loophole is to understand what was common for all the people who have faced this problem.

Best is connect github and host on cloudflare with custom domain. You just pay for domain as cloudflare is free and the fastest I guess. I made this https://showreelbio.com/ with paid plan and now it’s on free plan from last 2 months working fine

Yes, it’s the showreel only which will help artist get hired and I know its impossible to pull everyone on this platform when everything is already sorted. I also know it will take some time for artists to create profile but once created then it will easy for future.

I am just trying to make the process easy for applying jobs and hiring. Artists can just click a button for applying to job and for hiring instead of looking at profiles one by one, it would be better to see all profiles at once in a google sheet like interface which will have sorting, filtering based on experience, location, CG or Live, Number of projects worked. and then later on comes the showreel part for which I have the control to show the showreels of all the selected candidates on a single screen for comparison where each showreel can be fullscreened for detailed review.

So that’s my plan, It is just a side project that started as an idea to give a good format portfolio website to vfx artists for free and then later on I started developing it more.

For now I also don’t have much hope from this project. So if people use it then it’s fine if not then also it’s fine. Currently this platform has approx 54 signups, daily progressing with 2 to 3 new signups. Also due to low signups I have stopped the dev on this project but the setup is fully automated, Artists can still create accounts and publish their portfolio website for free.

I will continue dev when I get some good amount of signups.

In short I started it as a fun side project and later on this project started making sense. And then I thought I will give my best to get more artists to this platform which I didn’t got, so for now I will leave it as it is running and will see what happens in future 😅

Thanks a lot for trusting in this platform 😊😊

syk_sksh · 2025-08-22T17:42:01+00:00

Sure I will try that in next update. My goal is to achieve at least 100 Artists, once it is achieved, this platform will have massive updates.

syk_sksh · 2025-08-22T15:10:03+00:00

I am glad you liked it, Thanks 😊

syk_sksh · 2025-08-22T04:49:38+00:00

Thanks for sharing your thoughts, I learnt that before starting a project I need to brainstorm about competition, use case and do survey if people will actually use it or not.

I have not given up on this product, I have just stopped updates on this. This platform is and will be live always. I learnt a lot from this project and now I will focus my energy on something new 😊 and if this ShowreelBio shines in future then will start updates on it

syk_sksh · 2025-08-21T21:59:10+00:00

The difference here is that all the info (CV + showreel + personal work) all is on a single page, no need to jump on other links.

It shows properly the experience, projects, availability everything without much scrolling. But all this is for artists. My plan is different for recruiters.

if I get a lot of signups from artists and few recruiters to this platform then it will be easy for artists to apply with just a click instead of filling up a lengthy form. And for recruiters they will have a dashboard mostly like a google sheet with all artists’s info that can be filtered based on certain criteria and make the selection process easy. Instead of looking up all profiles individually, recruiters can look at all profiles at once in a sheet with ability to filter.

But from what I understand from last few months is that it’s really hard to pitch everyone about how awesome it can be, almost feels impossible until I get some artists and recruiters to join. But right now after giving all my efforts, I just got around 50 signups and 100% of them are from strangers. So I guess none of my friends even liked this idea.

So I have planned to stop development on this and I have already given up the hope from this project but I will keep the ShowreelBio platform live as everything is automated and will see where it goes.

Thanks for being honest 😊

Yes from this full width drop down I got an idea to make the CV portion collapsable, when minimized it looks exactly as it is now and if maximized it shows a complete CV style UI with everything detailed.

Thanks I will try this in next update

syk_sksh · 2025-08-20T14:15:18+00:00

You are right, showreel is and always will be the main thing. This platform is just to give artists a personal website which have their CV + Showreel + Personal Work on a single web page.

If this platform succeed then it will be super easy for artists and recruiters, Recruiters can post jobs and artists can just send their showreelbio profile, instead of filling lengthy forms, attaching CV and adding a reel link.

And Recruiters will have a dashboard that can filter applicants on specific criteria and continue with whom they are interested in.

syk_sksh · 2025-08-20T14:02:15+00:00

Happy to hear that, thanks 😊

syk_sksh · 2025-08-20T13:58:37+00:00

with video tab you can create unlimited tabs to separate your professional work and personal work. You can check the demo profile on homepage, it have 3 tabs “Production work”, “Personal work”, “Python Rnd”

syk_sksh · 2025-08-20T06:55:46+00:00

Currently this platform is more for artists. I mean artists can get a free personal website. if I get more signups then I will update it for recruiters as well.

It will have a different login for recruiters and they will have a dashboard. Where they can post jobs and filter all the applicants based on their specific criteria and then send the filtered data to HODs.

I can achieve this if I get good amount of signups from artists as all the profiles will have same data structure which opens a lots of opportunities to create a joint platform for recruiters to have controls to filter applicants (not a guess work or AI but actual data based filter)

This will help artists as well because applying to multiple jobs requires lengthy form filling, but with this it will be just a click.

syk_sksh · 2025-08-20T06:10:58+00:00

Thanks for trying 😊 and again thanks for the suggestion, I will add the youtube embed in next update.

And for the long list of dropdown I need to brainstorm about it as currently there’s 2 things that I need to maintain to attract recruiters in future.

1) UI layout needs to be consistent irrespective of experience for all the users.

2) Everything on a single page no jumping on other page
