I like the site, I really like your images and your style. 15

If i may ask what kind of processing did you use on the 15th images under senior portraits? I really like the the borders.

yeah, mostly I did get the idea from another website a good while ago, but designed it in dreamweaver.

I like it except for the 3rd image, i think it actually may be Black and white so when you roll over it, it does not turn to color. It makes it seem like something is wrong with the site.

Tnks for the input I agree thought about maybe adding contrast in the rollover but I think it wouldn't make much sense so just removed it

I like the homepage with the B&W photos and mouse rollover to color! I think it's a nice idea and nice images. If I had to make a suggestion, the scrolling for me was a little "weird", for lack of a better word I guess. There are a good number of pictures, and the arrow scrolling is too slow, but using the scrollbar didn't feel right neither. And I felt like I might've missed a image. Probably no big deal though--

Thank you for the input, exactly what I need, I've been debating on this and cant come up with a solution. My skills are limited I had help to create the java script that makes it scroll when you hover over the arrows, and cant really think about anything better...

any suggestion are extremely welcome

Personally I really like sites with scrolling galleries but I am not big on splash pages and from the stats AB's and AD's are not either.

With the rollover, I would have it so there's no vertical scroll bar, only horizontal

first of all I am not taking advice from someone who's screenname is MESSYDALEGEND - messy is but and apprentice of the real legend: Ronaldinho........... (jk kidding man messy is awwesome)



The vertical bars are not there by default in some screens and/or browsers it comes up because they are smaller than the norm, I dont think I have control over that I wish the site would resize itself to whatever screen and browser I will try to find out if its possible... thanks for input
