Hi I feel as though my site is a bit boring and perhaps could be a bit more interesting or change the colour schemes or layout of the front page. You guys got ang links to pages that you like just for ideas, my web guy can pretty much do anything but its over to me to give him ideas.

I am at www.kyliesmith.com

Any advise, comments is most welcome.

A simple facelift could be to use a coloured background with text in white...?

Then you need a web guy who has ideas as well! Like the one that works for me! Can I interest you in a quote??

Edit: his own site is www.mostlywanted.com

Thank you yeah perhaps a band of darker colour like earthy grey tones so the artworks stand out more.
Sounds good

Yes I know my web guy should be presenting me with ideas, but he insists I find some pages I like the layout of and then send him the links, I mean there are only a billion or so pages to sift through out there oh the choices Something with some animation too would be cool so long as its not too slow for people to view.

BTW your site is great! I am tied in with this guy sorry. Thanks anyway. You want some art work for your office???

Hi kylie

My brother is an artist although his work is slightly different from yours so i don't think you will be in direct competition lol.

He is having the final stages of his new website done and from the sound of your post i think you may be interested in his site.

I'm not sure whether that particular format would represent your work well, but thats not for me to decide.

Have a look and if you see anything you like i think you can contact him through the site. He is very approachable and not only that ; he is always looking for new artists to join his guild or whatever lol.

If you like the site i am sure he'll be able to put you in contact with the creator and who knows, you may even be able to do some business together.

Best regards
Ian
