I've spent the last few days tweaking the Zenfolio template and I finally think I have a look that I'm pleased with. I'm just curious to see if you agree. One of things you may notice right off the bat is that the butterfly pic in the slideshow has different dimensions than the rest of the pics. I am aware of that, but I'm too tired to fix it tonight. It WILL be fixed though. I designed the watermark and logos myself. Would like to get your feedback on those as well.

Over the next several weeks I'm hoping to upload many more photos. It's going to be a painfull process going through all my pics, but I'll get there! :)

Here's the link which will be linked directly to my new domain (hypnotizedbynature.co​m) very soon.

I'm just going to comment about your watermark/logo. The font works well if your trying to do kid stuff (nursery/daycare etc), but I don't think you're trying to do that. Not really sure if the Whale graphic and your name fit.

Thanks for the advice. I did go ahead and change the font and reworked the logo a little bit. I like this one better, but the font is still on the bold/thicker side. It seems when I try to use a fancier font it just doesn't look right to me. Can you please take a look again and let me know if you think this looks better?

The font is an improvement. Not sure I'm sold with the Whale tail graphic and your name.

Thanks for looking again! I respect your opinion, but the whale part of the logo is a must for me. I can not change that. Whales are my main subject and they're a very important part of my life so it's important to me that I have one of my whale shots as the logo. I might still mess around with the font though. :)
