My Website for your C&C

I realized that I had been giving a lot of feedback and advise on other people's designs and creations but I had not given anyone else an opportunity to do the same.

I do tend to go to too plain and boring but whatever artistic bone I have does not extend to website creation.

So without any further delays --- have at it... please give C&C I appreciate them and will take them under review.

Ignore the blog for the moment, I'm either going to kill it off or do a theme myself -- so far its just wasted there.

Simple...Clean... I like it

I second that.

Simple and clean but we expect more when we look at a photographers portfolio, I think the images are great but due to approx 0 design, looks little bit blank, not creating much effect.
One more thing, When we click on gallery, first it download all images and show downloading of them one by one. I think when first photo downloaded, show it and other photos will downloaded in background, Showing like the current way is little bit confusing, user need to click on back button to view the downloaded image.
About the flash : Nice way to add flash just on pics (as protected from copy) also developed remaining in css, This will helps you on SEO.

I think Site required much work on design.
Rather then that I like that.

It looks you used Spry menus from Dreamweaver, correct? They work well, but you might consider changing the button/font color and font face, requires some CSS manipulation, but isn't hard.

Awesome gallery! I really enjoyed looking at all the great pictures, I'm fairly new to photography so I can't really critique but I doubt there would be a whole lot to change

I completely agree that it would be better with design sadly my creative bone just does not extend that far beyond photography and coding. I have never had an eye for what colors work with what colors and what is a good design. If anyone has suggestions I would be most willing to listen.

That's a good point on the flash loader, I'll have to take a look at the code.

Yes, it's DW from CS4. Its a very good point. The CSS and the code is already hacked up to do a couple of technical points differently but I guess I never changed the default size and font. Thank you, I will do that shortly.

It's not that it looks bad or disharmonious with the rest of the page, but I see that default gray button with blue mouse-over everywhere, so it's a bit trite.

And great domain name by the way, you nabbed a good one.

Its actually a play on my first name.

In Farsi, Aram is synonymous to Pacific. Tranquil is a bit of synonym to Pacific.
