My New Website

What do you think. I'm not sure if I will pursue this, but it is nice to have some examples of what I can do online at last...

Re: My New Website

Nice looking, logical and very functional showcasing very nice work.

I would, however, replace the filler text (Lorem ipsum dolor sit amet, consectetur...) that you use with each image. I understand the purpose, but since the site is publicly available, it gives the wrong impression to site visitors.

I sent you a private message with other observations.

@Frank Lopes: Thank you for the kind words too

I have every intention of replacing the "Lipsum" (unfortunately, that is the dull bit ) I probably should have mention just how work-in-progress this site is

RE: Labs:
Yes, I am aware that it is a directory listing; I don't think that there is anything in there that I would mind people seeing. I have however hidden several items as I can see your point about exposing filenames and I have asked Google etc not to index it with a robots.txt. Thanks.

Questions:
Do you think my choice of work is appropriate?
Is there too much work (if so what should I drop)?

I few points of interest that I am especially proud of:
* The front page displays a random image with each visit
* I am hoping to set it up so that a user may upload an image (and annotate/draw on it--to explain what to do with it).
* The site is fully W3C standards compliant

I am not proud that it breaks in Internet Explorer (will have to work hard to fix that)

Thank you all for taking the time to look

Re: My New Website

It is a very good site. Direct and to the point. Explaining all services, showing xamples, thats great. How do you get the before and after image to change like that when you roll over it?? Also, if u don't mind me asking, just curious..Are you getting much work from your site? How do you handle pricing?
