Overall it looks ok. The B+W theme may be getting a bit overused, but if you just want a simple website it looks fine. The text in the purchase info is a bit terse sounding, perhaps just change it slightly to something like;

"Please contact photographer for the prices of gallery prints. Many shipping options are available, including matted, flat, rolled, etc. All prints are signed by the photographer on the reverse (***just for consistancy***). The first ten prints of each image sold will be numbered (regardless of size)."

See what you think.

Also, does the numbering the first ten prints thing really work as a selling point? Would making it a limited edition of say 50 prints not sound better, unless you think an image is highly sellable and you expect to shift lots?

Overall though, nice site, couldn't find any holes.

Thansk,

the first ten print thing is something I've always done......I don't sell that many to begin with.

I like it simple, small effective, works for me.

though can you use a print shop to let people buy off your site, this is what i want to be able to do, host my own site and have it anyone who wants to buy a print can do so, and let say photobox take the order and send it out etc.

what gallery software did you use, or built it from scratch? not a joomla template is it :)
