dustin_m1 Posted December 12, 2009 Share Posted December 12, 2009 <p>I've been taking class on creating websites, and I used the opportunity to make a site for my photography. I finally finished it up this morning and got it online. For the most part, it's all there, but I may tweak a few things. It's hosted on Tripod right now until I can get my own domain and a paid host, so my contact form is disabled because of the lack of PHP capabilities.When I get on a "real" host, I also plan on getting a shopping cart on there and maybe changing the gallery to use something different.</p> <p>I figured that here would be a good place to get some good feedback on any issues that anyone might see. So, check it out for me and let me know if there are any suggestions you might have.</p> <p><a href="http://photographybydlm.tripod.com/">Here is the link</a></p> <p>Thanks<br /> Dustin</p> Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dustin_m1 Posted December 12, 2009 Author Share Posted December 12, 2009 Sorry, didn't see the website forum. Thanks for moving it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
wil_ussery Posted December 12, 2009 Share Posted December 12, 2009 <p>Dustin, nice photos. What would be nice is to have captions under each photo describing where they were taken and it would also be nice to have a slideshow option.</p> Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dustin_m1 Posted December 12, 2009 Author Share Posted December 12, 2009 Thanks Wil. Captions are in the works, but the slideshow will probably have to wait until I figure out what to use for a nicer gallery solution. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bastiaan_kout Posted December 20, 2009 Share Posted December 20, 2009 <p>Dustin,</p> <p>Great photos!</p> <p>Regarding the site design, you may want to consider making your header a bit cleaner by dropping the photo to the right of your logo. I'd also change your menu to grey text on a white background and move the sub menu (i.e. "<a href="http://photographybydlm.tripod.com/SilverGelatinAlbum/pages/silvergelatin_pic01_jpg.htm">Previous</a> | <a href="http://photographybydlm.tripod.com/silvergelatin.html">Back to Silver Gelatin Gallery</a> | <a href="http://photographybydlm.tripod.com/printpricing.html">To Print Pricing Page</a> | <a href="http://photographybydlm.tripod.com/SilverGelatinAlbum/pages/silvergelatin_pic03_jpg.htm">Next</a>") down a bit until it's halfway between the menu and the photo. You may also want to consider moving the adds somewhere else [i'm assuming the tripod part of the page is fixed and can't be removed]. I don't know to what extent this is possible with the website host you're currently using.</p> <p>If you like, I can upload a quick mock-up.</p> <p>Bastiaan</p> Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
