One thing i noticed on the first attempt and has remained is that the "subjects" are in an odd order. I think it would be improved if miscellaneous was at the end of the list (they are just the photos you can't put into a "subject"
. Perhaps you could also call "photoshops" something else? It doesn't sound all that professional to me.
. Perhaps you could also call "photoshops" something else? It doesn't sound all that professional to me.jam101 said:

One last thing. Your online store confuses me? It only says 2.99 which at any size is very cheap. And I'm not sure about the colour thing, their your photos and you should be proud of them and people will buy a finished item.
when you select a size the price (should change) accordingly. does it not?Hi,
- Try and be a bit more consistent across all pages on the site, the left menu jumps around too much.
- Not keen on the text in the top left hand corner (Home, etc).
- Remember to change your title bar text, <title></title> tags in the HTML, at the moment it's basic, at least have your website name there instead of it just saying "home".
- How about some simple roll overs on the left hand menu, can be more effective than nothing at all.
- Not too keen on the whole AJAX thing, could be better if you click on an image and it brings up a HTML page with an enlarged image and options to purchase the photo from there. Why do I need to look at the pictures, then click on online shop only to try and find that picture again before I can purchase, are all pictures available to purchase?
Hope these suggestions help.

much improved ... you must be pleased ? ... now where do we send the invoice ?
but before you get too carried away ....
"Welcome to my website, my name is Leighton James. This website contains a collection of my images.
Want to Contact me? You can contact me here"
within the first two lines you mention "me or "my" six times ... most of the content is contradictory - you could quite simply replace it all with:
"Welcome to my website .... You may contact me here"
Similarly, "Like the Site ?" could be binned for the same reason, as nobody is going to add it to their faves if they don't like it.
and ... possibly replace the heading Scenery with Landscape.
keep up the good work.
