Hi - I been watching and reading (and learning!) for the past few months.
This forum is great!
Would like to introduce myself. I am a Kiwi based in Vancouver, Canada and have been here for a little over 3 years.
Please check out my website and tell me what you think.

I built it myself, on a Mac, so would also be interested in knowing how it fares on PCs with different browsers.
Any cc is welcome - the aim is to constantly improve, right?

Thanks.

I`m on a PC using Firefox as my browser, but most of the links to your galleries come up with a "page not found" message? Your flash takes forever to load, even on broadband. What photos I did see looked great though!

I'm on a pc with Firefox, and it worked fine for me. Some really beautiful shots there - you've obviously got a lot of talent.

I like the running elephant as the page loads too!

Tony, do you know what version of flash player you are using? I think there is an issue of which version will read the galleries and slideshows. Haven't quite figured that out yet - I'm no web-techie and am just kind of figuring bits out as I go along.

Thanks everyone for your feedback - I appreciate you taking the time to look.

Hey Leanne and welcome!

Yours is the first site I've seen with a same-sex specialized gallery. Honestly, I'm not sure if I'd be able to do one of those... I wouldn't know how to pose them... hahaha

There are a LOT of pictures on your site. You have many nice images in there... but also some that aren't quite as good. I personally think you can make a bigger impact putting up much less photos, but just your very best.

Also, the title "Simpleviewer" for some of your galleries isn't the best title to display...

but other than that, nice photos and nice site! Looking forward to your contributions to this forum.

Think outside the box!!!!

Thanks for the comments about the number of images - spot on advice.

I am having the same problem. I have the latest version of FireFox and I run Flash MX and have the latest viewer.....The loading was so slow, I had to quit....

Thank you for giving equal time to all kinds of Love. I wish I could see the images, but I can only go so far into the website.

I do know that building a website to fit all versions of browsers and all browsers is very difficult. You can be very surprised at what you see from a different computer or OS.

What I did see was lovely....

Edit: Just visited you site on Exploiter and it works beautifully...quick to load, no dead links.

Wonderful shots..
