Please have at it, let me know what you like or don't like. Yes I know it's bare bones...that's the point.

For the home page, I would rather see a single powerful photo on rotation as opposed to four small square crops of four individual, non-related images taken by yourself.

I understand that those four images act as links to categories of your portfolio but you want to wow visitors within moments of hitting your webpage.

Well, that's my opinion anyway.

Not sure about the title where your name and the following stuff is spread across two lines.

Where in your portfolio have you conveyed truth & life?

I agree about grabbing attention on entry to the page, but I did the single image idea and people hated it because in essence it was a spash page that took you to other options when clicked.. So I changed it to an auto rotating slide show and people hated that too because they wanted the option to go to galleries and click on pictures themselves. I combined both ideas and switched it out to 4 images in related categories that rotate automatically each time you visit the home page.

Photo Truth Life is just a personal mantra, though the misc section is for my wanderings, plenty of truth life will be found in there once the site is has all of it's content. I like to 'people' watch :cool: you never know what you'll see.
