Finally, I finished up the re-design of the website.

Take a look at lemme know what everybody thinks. Peace.

Looks good Jason. On your Home Page the pics seem to dark to until you do the roll over. Maybe
make them a tad bit brighter?? The overall look seems dark but maybe that's your style

I don't care for the navigation system since it just leaves each photo on the screen if you click on another. Most systems will close one photo if another is clicked on.

Since I don't know the purpose of your site, I can't say much else. If it is designed to further your photographic business, then it will not work very well since it is basically search engine invisible. There is no Search Engine Optimization (SEO) at all, so the site will not score well in the search engines. This is naturally a critical factor for a website that you want people to find (other than by giving people the link on a business card, or an ad).

Cheers,

I am not a fan of the Rollover function. They are too dark, and not intuitive.
No contact information ?

[JPalmer]

The contact info is on the Bio page... I need to fix that. It made sense in my head. The rollover thing was something I through in at the last second... not sure if I really like it myself.

Roger... the website is basically just a portfolio site. I don't sell anything from this site. While I do know that I need to do a better job of optimizing it for a search engine, I am not trying to draw the traffic of a mainstream commercial photographer either as long as I'm a staff photog. at the newspaper.

Is the Nav. thing a problem because it's a hassle to click the photo again to close it? I was wondering what the thought on that would be.....personally, I thought it was a good idea to leave those photos open and make them movable so you could look at several enlargements at a time.

Keep it coming... you won't hurt my feelings in the least.

On the homepage, I don't think the Enter icon is really necessary since it just goes to the Editorial page.

[JPalmer]

Okay... took the enter icon off....

Added a contact page with link to the bottom...

I'm tinkering with the rollover (may just delete it all together) and seeing if there is anything I can do to change the nav. I may just go back to the lightbox viewer i had before... it was pretty sweet.
