Great site :)

I love that colour green you chose as background. The site is easy to browse and fairly responsive (pictures take a little time to load, but that's probably an 'Australian' thing :( ).

As for the pictures. Wow! Very fond of that purple flower one (and others of course, but that caught my eye :))

Wonderful! :D

There is strong consistency throughout the site with the green that also works with your photographs because they all have a nature feel to them.

It's all very easy to use and navigate because you kept is simple and about the photographs.

Nice work.

Very nice! I think to really round it off you should look in to lightbox 2.0 for your photos.

Thank you all for your comments.

I'm pretty pleased with the green background, tried millions different colors and thought that grey or black was too boring. I still got few issues with the image resizing, with smaller resolutions some images got jagged edges on them.

Thanks for the tip Mint_Sauce, I'll definetly try that lightbox out. Maybe it will help with the resizing problem...

No, all the snakes are from different exhibitions. Geckos are mine...

wza that is one of the most professional, gorgeous gallery sites i think i have seen to date. congratulations.

What i wanted to ask though, is what is the purpose of the gallery? if the purpose is to sell the photos there is no way for people to buy them, or contact you (at least i didnt see any). i think you really need such details.

Thanks for your comments Dingo Boy, main purpose for the gallery is to just show my friends and relatives what I've been shooting. But I'll definetly add a contact/info page later...
