Hey website again

[martinsjc]

Thanks for all the people who took their time to give me suggestions and critiques on my work and website, i have finally redesigned it, still something very simple but I think more effective, no thumbnails but a rolling gallery something not very seen out there I don't think but I really liked the idea.. l

So I ask again, what do you guys think of the new website? (the images ae the same working on improving though hehe)
Im still working on rates and services everything else is ready except of course I will add some more images (Im working on some old images and doing new shoots every week)

Thanks in advance for all the help...

hey jc, the new site looks great, but the one issue I have is with the frames. Frames are bad, mkay? Generally because you can't link to specific pages/photos, and this also makes it harder for the search spiders to crawl the site. Otherwise, it looks great, your on the right track!

Thanks, I understand about the frames, just thought it was the best solution for me... Any suggestions?

yes, just let my weary brain think it over a bit, I'll let you know!

Got a sample up for you, nice and clean: http://electricmonk.ca/sample.html

just view the source and it should be pretty straight forward!

Thank you very much that seems a bit complicated for me at first glance but as everything Ill look it over and look it up.. seems to work great so I will figure it out and incorporate it into the website..... thanks again.

Just a thought...I peeked at your site earlier and I didn't notice the horizontal scroll bar until I read the recent posts here and went looking. Perhaps a different/more obvious solution is in order. But, it looks very nice.

hey I finally think I took care of that I added small arrows on the bottom that should indicate the picture move and the pictures roll when you hover on the arrows.. what do you guys think?

I would consider putting them above your nav & right below your photos. I like the effect, but I have to admit I'm not a fan of their design. I do love your photos by the way.

thanks again for input.. will check what it looks like with the nav below the photos.

as for the design you mean the arrows? just the first I picked... any suggestions?by the way.

I also am working on removing the frames will have a new version without the frames up soon... (using your suggestion)
