    Lynard,

    If you're showcasing your original art, why do the thumbnails focus on the framing? A menu bar for the two might be a better idea? Also, I found the instant mouse-over distracting - say I want to save an image to show someone. When I move the mouse to right-click, the image has changed! So I would need to be very careful to not let the mouse go over any other images.

    The framing is an important part of my photography and I own a framing business. I do not do standard framing or art. As stated in artist statement. I can see where my wife needs to cut down the copyright logo in the photos, work in progress.

    Cool, thanks. I like the mouse-over, but then I use it too. My only suggestion would be to add two more to the right side for balance. It's one of the first quick things you see when the Web pages loads, the imbalance between left and right thumbnails. But that's me. Good luck.

    one problem you are going to experience because you have put your email address on the site in a form which is easily readable by email address harvesters, is that you will generate a lot of unsolicited spam. That is why many of us use a contact form where the email address is hidden from robots. But using a form does mean you need to have some server side scripting to send the form details to you. Most web hosts supply free scripts to do this for you if you don't how.

    My website was designed and put on-line by Lynn Bell Designs (www.lynnbelldesigns.com) for less than $800. I can change content on any page and add or delete pages.

    I'm Sure that she can help you fix up your site up any way you want.
