My Website........Your thoughts please.

I started work on this last year, and got busy with other things.

Anyway I've done a bit more to it, though there is still more to do.

I intend to sell event photos via it, and I would also like to use it as an advert to my corporate customers. If the two are compatible I don't know?

I like the rolling format of a Wordpress front end, though I might add a bit more static descriptive content to the header. With this I've integrated coppermine to view photos, with the option to buy prints via paypal checkout.

Constructive thoughts welcome.

Cheers Rich

Looks good. A few text overspills on my screen but generally nice.

I'm not an expert, but the following came to mind.

Is there any way of increasing the preview size?

If you're selling shots you probably ought to put up Ts and Cs up. Are you printing the images or getting them printed for you? Delivery time will be important to customers.

You'll probably also want to add your copyright to the images and website just for completeness sake.

Thanks for your input.

IIrc I changed the font size in gallery as it was tiny, obviously I didn'y increase the background size. To do.

I could put up am 800pixel picture, but short of lashing a watermark all over the picture, there would be nothing to stop someone from right clicking and pinching the image. I know about spaceball.gif, using flash, and disabling right click, but at the end of the day, you post a big image, and you're giving stuff away.

Good idea, I'd forgotten about that.

I use a copyright border for my images usually. Images on the site are just fillers for the time being.

To watermark or not, that is the question?

I found it a bit confusing with the different navigation bar on your gallery page, a minor thing but, it doesn't take much for people to give up and look elswhere.
