Sounded just like him in my head. Nearly went on to talk about smoking drugs and politics.

Im getting javascript errors on the page - ie6, xp-sp2

[parasharia]

lyndon which page are you getting js errors on?

[lyndon]

weddings and receptions when i scroll through the images, though its not affecting the actual site now

On the first page i think you should add one of your photos to draw the user attention at the moment it dosent seem to grab me, also i think you should change you heading "clear vision photography" make the dropshadow a shorter distance.

Hope this helps

the nice tree - sunset background is a bit too big unless you plan to put some content or something in their.

maybe you could add that to the heading and dropshadow "clear vision photography" in that.


mmm other than that its coming along nicely.

drop shadow not shit shadow

and your buttons in flash are shocking - but a 0%alpha box behind them for heavens sake u joke.

Your flash navigation is very poorly done, you actually have to click on the letter of the nav item to get the link to work, you should put some transparent boxes under the nav labels, so that the user can click on and around the letter to get to the page he/she wants to view.

EDIT: oh yeah what jamiep said

[etc]

I checked it out on safari OS X, looks Ok. One thing your flash buttons need a full box on the rollover and hit frame. When you put the pointer on a letter it's active but if the pointer is in between two letters it's not active.
I also agree on the drop shadow, it's falling.

thanks for you advice on flash - im very much a beginner with flash and am thus still learning... i am in the process of sorting it out.

The "hit" sections in your buttons is the designated space for mouse overs, i.e. your detect area for the click. If you make this a box that covers your word you shouldn’t have any probs. This is still a lahhhaame way to do buttons in flash, look into making animated movie clips buttons.
