Artist info and technique on WWW pages

[Ed Richards]

I have added a technique/prints page and an artist info page to my site:

If anyone is bored, comments are welcome. I am getting ready to turn on a paypal shopping cart system and have a go at selling prints, hence the info about prints and shipping. I am not quitting my day job.:-)

I am not selling anything, nor have any experience in doing so. Just bear in mind that...
In the technique part, there is too much "I" and "my". It sounds too personal.
Maybe better to rework the text to address more directly the person reading:
"the print you will be getting are shots using view camera, which allow control of..."
It is the same on the artist info, rather use "he" as if someone else wrote the text for you (sounds more pro maybe?). Well, that how "I" would do it because generally people are not interested in others but themselves.
Anyway, it is one viewpoint. Hope you see what I mean.

I like the hog boucherie,... especially the last shot with the tongue hanging out of the severed head ;) Geez,... do they bleed RED!

Really nice work, Ed.

Just a suggestion on the pages you linked since you asked... If your main goal for the site is to sell the prints, you might want to move that section first and separate that from your camera and dev technique. I would imagine most people who are buyers would be concerned more about exactly how their print was being made, the quality of the paper ("archival"), etc. I know that breaks the from-start-to-finish organization of your presentation, but on my monitor, I had to scroll down quite a ways to see the print info.

You probably want to say something about prices, even if it is just how to inquire.

John,

I am not that subtle.:-) There is a pull down for each picture with a price. I just have not turned it on yet. Good tip on the "about the prints" section.
