Feedback about my blog

[SusieMet]

Hi everyone. I have just switched over from blogger to wordpress and so far I like the differences. I like all the behind the scenes features it has and the ability to have multi pages. I would like it if you all checked it out and gave me your feedback. Thank you very much.

G'day Susie,

I like it. Nice, simple, not flashy, no music. You're letting the images do the talking for you. While an 'archive' for people to view thumbnails of your images would be handy, it's a blog, not a gallery. So I think it works

Thank you very much Peter. The clean look is what I am going for. I hate when a page is clogged up with unnecessary things. Does the "about me" page sound ok or should I reword it somehow?

Hi Susie,

The blog looks good, my only issue is on my laptop (1280x800px) the photos are too big to see without scrolling

Perhaps drop the longest side to 600 and people will be able to look at them better on smaller screens?

Cheers

The About Me sounds good --- it says why you're in photography, and your background. That you may not have any official qualifications, but you do it out of raw passion. I like it.

Only suggestion would be to go through and check it for spacing. I notice on several ocassions you use single spacing, but then randomly double spacing, after fullstops. Although single spacing is the current norm, I'd suggest using double spacing, as the 'spaces' don't appear that big when single spaced in that format.
