Would you mind checking your internet connection?"<br> .<br> How do you think I posted here that it didn't work? Nope. Can't load in IS or Firefox, and google's cache of it, will only partially load...<br> .<br> http://www.google.com/search?hl=en&safe=off&client=firefox-a&rls=org.mozilla%3Aen-US%3Aofficial&hs=CvJ&q=xemival.com&btnG=Search</p> Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

christopher_ryan1 Posted March 30, 2009 Share Posted March 30, 2009 <p>The site seems fine to me, but the page is slightly too large for my Macbook display. So I have to scroll a bit left/right and up/down in order to see the entire page. Its a little annoying, but not a huge deal. Just something to consider when designing your site.</p> Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
evphotography Posted March 30, 2009 Share Posted March 30, 2009 <p>The site worked fine on my PC, I think you did a really nice job with the site. You definitely know what your doing. Only thing I would suggest for improvement is when viewing the gallery images and you click on a image for Pop-up, it takes to long to load the image, I would leave out the flash on those if you could. Also when you click the next arrow I wish it took you to the next image in the portfolio, not an indoor display on a wall. Other than that I think you did great job with the site.</p> Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
philfx Posted March 31, 2009 Share Posted March 31, 2009 <p>Mostly agree with Eric, speed. but it makes you question...Do potential buyers rather see how it might look in a staged setting and perhaps equal a sale easier?<br> It is something to test. From the creators perspective i can agree with Eric.<br> Also, the grey background can be darker to make the text easier to read, perhaps larger....at least the options on the left with the icons.<br> The white around each gallery image can be reduced. it outweighs the thumbnail image itself....too much white.<br> Copyright page can be a bit more info, different region laws, and so forth.</p> <p>Otherwise, I like the images. good job!</p> Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
nathan_spratt Posted April 1, 2009 Share Posted April 1, 2009 <p>I'd definitely have to say that the website is too wide. You should try for your website to fit in a 1280px wid monitor (1024 is much better).</p> <p>To solve this problem, try implementing DIV tags that resize as the widow gets thinner, plus design your website more vertically.</p> Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
