I would place two photos side by side or maybe even make them smaller and have three on a line. There's no need to have to scroll that much. I like simple sites.

Thanks Jim, I agree with you on simple sites, the one thing I was thinking was adding about 2-3 unlabled photos on each side. I have some very cute shots from the studio of youg children in Halloween costumes. When in doubt always go with cute kids. What do you think? Thanks again.

That would be fine. Just don't make people scroll too much. Just keep in mind that the majority of people surfing the net have no patience. Pages that don't load within 8-seconds rarely get seen. Avoid glitzy flash anims and all that crap. No annoying music, shutter sounds or any of that. Let the photos speak for themselves. If you're good enough, HTML sure isn't going to sell your photos.
