Well, My website has been up for almost a year now, so I just had to make some changes. Modified the homepage layout, added some new arrivals, change the welcome and about pages. Take a look and tell me what you think?

Thanks,

I like it, all you need is to take better pictures.
John.
I like how easy it is to maneuver back and forth. Very user friendly.
I really like the photo gallery, where did you come across this template?
John, I hope you were trying to be funny. Even if you were, it doesn't come across that way to me. Bob, I think the website is excellent, really. And the photos are great. My only suggestion would be to indicate your location on the front page, so someone looking at it for the first time (like me) can see where you are getting these shots.
Typically people exert tremendously more effort when they are badgering other people, as opposed to energy used to compliment. You see people on forums going on and on, paragraphs after paragraphs about why it "sux @ss".
I felt the gap between the high quality of Bob's photos and the simple and subtle diss by John to be pretty funny.
But a winky face would always help to pick up on the joking tone [;)]
Change "Humming Birds" to "Hummingbirds", change "Ballon Festival" to "Balloon Festival". Some might say to change "Motor Sports" to "Motorsports", but I don

I love the changes you made, Bob! Your new photos are fantastic and other than the few things that peety pointed out ...all looks really good to me! Pro-quality looking photos and site should render you with some pretty good sales! Good Luck!!

Bob, I like the changes you have made, some new added pictures look very nice!, can you add music when doing slid show?
I meant it in constructive way, the photos are already great. As the website is great the pictures are great and all you need is to improve them even further. Never stop improving and allways critique yourself to the max! Thats how Juza, Ondrej Prosicky, Aurthur Moris, Brutus Ostling, Nate [:)] and others got there.
Cheers,
John.
Okay no worries... it
Sure, no worries.
John.

I was the fifth person to read the document, in a company of 50 employees...

Bob,
You have some excellent shots in your portfolio, and the layout of your site shows them to good effect. I like it.
Like Peety3, I have an eye for the small details. I noticed that images 9 and 15 in the New Arrivals gallery are duplicates. In the Birds Gallery, "Egrit" should be "Egret".
Many of the images use the file name as a caption, which I didn't like. I'd prefer if you used descriptive captions or left them blank.
Several of the images are very similar. Whilst they are all excellent, I think the collection would look stronger if you pick the best one where you have several shots of the same subject with the same background.
Thanks for inviting us to look, it brightened up a very dull day here.
Andy, Thanks for the very detailed look-see. I have made the corrections and changes that you, Peety and others suggested--Just one thing: Its very difficult to name all shots---so, some of the shots have less than imaginitive names---But, with your suggestions, I think it looks much better.
Thanks again for your assistance and keep the comments coming. You guys have been so helpful---Now all I have to do is get some more ----and better shots on the site.
The good news is, The wife and I have rented a beach house on the outer banks of South Carolina this summer, so lots of opportunity for new material---Different Birds---yeah.

Regarding the "What about Bob" page, I did have to give credit--where credit is due. I have learned so much from this site, I just thought it was fitting to give credit. Maybe Bryan will make a dime or two to keep it going.
