Ditto. You have fine work, but the site is lacking. Consider black backgrounds to show off your images.

Nice site. I agree that the pop ups are annoying. Are you looking to get in to the photography business?
For your galleries, try doing thumbnails and having a slide show or some other way of viewing the images one at a time. The scrolling to view all the images is a nussaince.
http://www.dynamicdriv​e.com/ (external link) has some really good ones.

Check out my site to see one of them used

good luck with your site :)

Sorry but the site does not work for me at all.

When it loaded a blinking banner that said "18 and over only" was flashing. It implied a porn site if I clicked on it.

Building a website is not easy but you can do it, I learned and built my site in about 4 days. I used photoshop and Dreamweaver, currently I have some links down on purpose so now is not the best time to view it but you get the idea.

ooo thats weird, it is working

agreed that i coudl do with the images being in a slide show, i originally had them like that, but they took forever to load!! :cry:

i'd love to go into teh photography business, but don't think i'm good enough *yet lol* so for the moment my site is just a way of dislaying all my pics

Thanks for all the helpful comments

When I say it doesn't work...I mean I don't like it.

The biggest reason is the "porno" style ad that was flashing...it would cause me to never go again.

It is not about the investment..you can find places that will host a site for less than $40 per year!

Learn to build your site, use free galleries.....

It is very easy to do something simple.

The advertising takes away from your work and looks unprofessional.

The beige/khaki tones are too muted for my taste.
