Please can you tell me what you think of the general format, usability, loading times etc :)

Images can be easily manipulated and altered!

Fire away :) But be nice :)

THANKYOU :)
 
I'll have a proper look at this in the morning, but I just wanted to note a few things first.

Although my initial impression on the site was a very positive and striking one, that soon went away as I found the lack of information and usability completely lacking. For starters there is no information regarding where you are based or any details about the service you offer.

I think your image galleries look ok, but there are definitely things to improve on - the load times are a little slow and it doesn't handle the function of opening the image in a new browser correctly, which a lot of people tend to do.

I assume you know about the broken links and that this is just a template for now?
 
I like the look of the site and the large images are very striking, but it's slow loading, Jamie.

Thanks for your response...do you think externally hosting large images via flickr would improve this?

Im hoping to add more information (maybe an about page) The broken links indeed are because its still being built. at the moment, its just a portfolio, but i want to turn it more into a commercial thing :)
 
Jamie, I don't know. It's tough because you have great big pictures and they have to be big files. How big are they?
