Title: My website
Post by: Winso on 22 February 2010, 22:14
Well about a year after starting it, my photography website is finally presentable. I've got sections planned to show my automotive photography and storm chasing antics but they won't be done for a bit so it's just landscapy type stuff for now. Let me know what you think...

It's too tall, I'm on 1280*1024 and you're scrolling down to see all the images in the grid, and the text on the bottom of the front page; so I'd change the grid size for the gallery, so that it fits in the screen.

Throw in lightbox for the fullsize previews, you're on classic asp so that's just a simple change to the string on the data repeater.

your pager control doesn't work, as in every page shows 4 pages

you might want to look into search engine optimisation, as your header is an image, so nothing will currently pick that up.

The photos look good though  :smiley:

the site I am not too keen on some of the nav/page layout... think it could be a lot simpler - but it does the job :)

One thing I would do is add a Blog.

Thanks for the feedback/comments guys.

Ridg - some good points there, specially about the size of the gallery. I need to have a catch up with my web dude and sort some of this stuff out.
