Talking Just updated =] - 08-27-2009, 10:35 AM


A friend of mine helped me redo my website, and I was just wondering if you lovely people had any comments or thoughts. It still has a couple of kinks to be worked out, but I like the overall product.

Thanks, guys! =]

Very nice.

Just my personal opinions, I am not a fan of intro pages, or that copyright notice on the intro (as least tone the color down). It's like when you come in to a store, the first thing shouldn't be a someone yelling at me "don't steal".

True. I think I'll keep the intro for now, but I will definitely tone it down. Thank you!

I like your "tag line"! But....

Lose the intro/splash page. It's a wasted click. I want to see what your site is about without having to click 2-3 pages to see it.

If your wanting Google and other search engines to find you (SEO), you need to add some CONTENT i.e TEXT on your home page. A short bio about what you do and where you are should do. Change your title element <title> to more search friendly. Add a description and keyword metadata tag as well.

I clicked the page and then went, what now. No direction. So i just clicked (some may not know to do this) then I get to this page that gets me these small thumb nails. So I click gallery. it just sits there. no directions to scroll. I thought at first is was stuck then i hit my mouse and saw it move so then I scrolled. Photos are way too small. AND if you weren't a tpf friend I would had stopped looking after the first page. Sorry it just doesn't work for me. I hate having to go to a page and figure out what I have to do.

Well, as of five minutes ago, the former and apparently lame intro page is gone. =]
I'll see what I can do as far as making a "click to enlarge" text on the gallery to make it a little easier to navigate..

Anyway, thank you for all the feedback, both positive & negative.
