New Website I made today

[SRPhotographic]

Here's my new photographical website that I created today just for the heck of it. I think it represents my photography well. Feel free to sign the guestbook! Heh, sounds funny. Anyway- I used Macromedia Fireworks MS, Picasa2 from Google, Simpleviewer for the galleries, and SmartFTP to load the whole thing. Sorry aboutt he small banner ad- I'm going to buy some webspace now that I have this thing looking good. Without further adieu-

Off to a good start. Here are some comments on how to improve it.

1- Use colours that are visually pleasing.. I find red, black and white all contrast too much and hurts the eyes after a while. Also use fonts that are easy to read, I had a bit of trouble reading your about page.

2- Make sure each page has a back button, my recomendation is to have the menu on the left side never go away. It's a pain in the butt to have to always click the back button.

3- You have some good shots, but I would change the hompage pic to soemthing else. Thats the first picture people see when they go to your site, if its not a really good one.. they might not want to look around. (not saying that pic is bad, just not as good as some of the others you have)

The type is way too big. Use a smaller fonts size. The type used in the about page was a little difficult to read. You want people to stay around and read what you wrote, so make it as easy as possible. You have some nice photos in your gallery.

and even the back button doesn't work in Firefox and it gets alerts on each page (probably causing back button errors).
