Well done

Oh yes, there is. I must've missed them.

I'd still like to see them on the initial slide though.

Cute site although slow to load here and make sure you check for "typos" "career"

Lovely photos. I enjoyed viewing your Galleries.

lol... Did I do that?! Geeze... I'm usually pretty anal about my spelling!

Thanks for all the feedback- I went back and did some tweaking, and upgraded to a subscription, to get rid of ads & such. I got rid of the flashy thing, and I'm going to change the gallery appearance, because I think you're right- I just have to figure out an option I like better!

Hi

The site is nice, not something i would have designed, but i would like to make a point about placing your education on the first page.

Being self taught is likely to turn people off, no matter how nice your pics are, so you should probably move that information to another page. Grab people and make them want to use you before possibly turning them off with the lack of education.

I agree with Lonni. That is the first thing that caught my attention. If it were me, I would remove that. Your galleries are nice though, keep up the good work!

First impression: cute.
It loaded fast (which I agree is VERY important...I did research for my website and checked out others' sites...too many I had to wait for it to load and I was gone!)
The transitions in the galleries bother me. If you can choose a fade in I think it's easier on the eyes. The transition in the first gallery was less annoying than the second one.
I would say it is a good start, but as others suggested you will eventually need to upgrade.

Oh yeah, I forgot: +1 on the education thing...don't put it on the first page, and when you word it, don't say you have no formal training. You can say you are self-taught, learned through mentoring or apprenticing, or learned on the job...semantics is everything
