Website design and Gallery

[Tareq]

Hi all,

I want to ask you all, where i can get my own website online to set-up my gallery and so?
I got my own Domain Name and now i need a site for myself, doesn't matter if free or paid, but sure i want paid because i want good website to publish my works and can sell it if so with my information there and so, and the design or style is nice and special as well (like animation or flash and so), so someone can help please?

I know about smugmug, but if i want to make my site bigger, let's say if i will add prices for my prints of my works, if i need some animations in my site and i had my own Domain Name, will smugmug take care of all that?

smugmug allows you to sell prints through them...they handle the shopping cart, credit card processing, printing and shipping. plus you'll notice that I have my own domain. it's a little bit more expensive ($99 per year is what i pay) but when you think about it in a per month cost it's really not that expensive. I've been super happy with the site.

Great, i hope i can find good nice design style for my site then.
and i hope i can add my own Domain Name if they allow that.
By the way, do you have 5D?
