what do ya'll think.

http://www.lancebroad.com

Anything need to be fixed or addressed?
Twist
About time. Looks great Lance.

You need more photos on there though.

critique? ok...

i really dont like that font at the top... doesnt seem 'profesional' to me.

also maybe you should combine the smaller collections in your gallery... Automotive only has 2 shots (although i do like the bmw shot).

Something about the wording didnt quite seem right either (although i cant really talk as my website is even worse), try using full words instead of things like 'misc.'

a positive spin... i really like your surf shots.
Lance
yeah, I am unsure aboutt he font at the top too, but I just chucked it in there as I didnt have much else. And yeah the misc word is going.
gallery will also increase in size when i upload more pics to it

thanks biggrin.gif

the "tag" text.. looks similar to the one other photographers use. I'd make my own lil diff thing if it was me.


The title <title> ** </title> lancebroad [.] com.. I know people do that to look good.. But really confuses people who are inexperienced and in my eyes doesn't make it very professional.

I would remove the "register" button as it really doesn't seem to be a key factor of the website and kinda pointless inless people just leave comments. Which isn't what your site should be about.

It should be about showing off your skills and telling people about your products etc. Once people start posting comments could end up with a fair few negative comments which then just turns the website upside down.

The search option on each page starts to look abit out of place.
And lastly made with wordpress does have a downsite.

Other then that its not to bad. Its imforitive. Tells people what they what to know, and shows your work. If possible I'd put more photos up.


Now you asked for suggestions theres some, not saying it can be good with all that changed, just some "personal" features I would look at if it was my website.

Best of luck

take the file names away on the images.

the top logo says random header image when u hold the mouse over it.... and yeh... more pics!

Not bad though, since you are using wordpress, you can try some photoblog theme from wordpress. And yes the top logo says random header image. You can also search for plug-ins for your wordpress, like http://wordpress.org/extend/plugins/nextgen-gallery/ to look more professional Photoblog.

+1 on the "random header image" removal. First thing I noticed. I like the idea of taking away the image name, but perhaps change it to "lancebroad.com" or something that signifies your page.

Not totallllly sure about this, but something about the three images up the top isn't floating my boat.. perhaps a very light (read: 1px grey mebbe) border around them? I think it's because the top of the BMW picture fades off into the background of the webpage where it's white sky? shrug.. could just be me
Lance
thanks guys

@mike thats the gallery i am using.
Lance
okay, all those issues everyone has raised has been fixed, and yes i will update the gallery this weekend. need to sort through all my photos and sort them to pick ones i wana show.

Just need to find a font to redo the banner!

Just had a quick look. Quite easy to use and direct around the website. Seems to load fast for me as well which is a big plus. Overall pretty good. I'd just add some more photos.
