    Talking Has it improved?

    Hi,
    I would like to know your oppinion on my website. I have made adjustments and it has a very simple design. Do you like this? I also wondered if i should put advertising on the page to 'liven it up' a bit!
    Thanks for your help in advance,
    Matt

    Really great job, Matt! For what it's worth:

    The three photos you have on the home page--they should be links to the appropriate pages. It's just natural for people to try clicking on a photo.

    On the page with the artwork. I wonder if there's a way to put the art at the top or near the top of the page rather than the copy. The art is very eyecatching but the scroll down is no fun.

    Here's a biggie: When clicking the back button of the enlarged image of any of the art pieces, the viewer is taken back to the home page. That's not good. The viewer should be able to immediately choose another art image to enlarge.

    This is a job well done. What I did notice is that you don't have any footer details. You know the sort of thing - company name, copyright, text links. I think that'll polish off the bottom of your pages very nicely

    Hi, nice looking site. Only a personal view, but would use smaller paypal buttons as they are nearly the same size as the images & a little distracting.
    The same page could be smaller in kbs for those on dial up.

    Good luck.

    Matt, love the site, a prime example of the old adage 'less is more'.
    You are letting the products speak for themselves which is exactly what is reqiured.
    Congratulations from a fellow Brit!

    On a technical note, could you get the pages to drop a tad more as they stop right on the text or your photo.

    Thanks! I have to say I like your website very much! The amount of times I have been 'corrected' by Americans on the spelling of Organisation/Organization!

    Andy,
    So do you mean there isn't enough white space at the bottom of the page? I'll change them in the morning.
    Thanks,
    Matt
