Ok so the first time round the link was shit admittedly...

I would though like to think some improvement has been made and would like your comments.

Very nice. Clean and simple. The only negative thing I'd fix is the grammar in places (there:their, where:were, etc.) as it does spoil the overall effect somewhat. Other than that I like it a lot.

Cheers,
I tend to miss things like that when I've stared at it for hours, although my flat mate is an English MA .. bloody MA's !

Well if I'd been organised enough to get myself a smooth website like that while still doing my Ba I'd be quite chuffed.

Good design, easy to use and attractive. I quite liked the way you displayed thumbnails as b&w details of each image and then had the main pic in colour. The motif of the girl's eyes (yours?) is good too.
The 'sketches' link on the didn't work for me, and only one of the three links on the front page worked (the 'abstract dark' one - was that all we were supposed to look at anyway?)

Second Grey Area'a point about the grammar, there are quite a few mistakes/typos in the 'about' section. To be honest i found the text a little bland, it reads too much like a list and has a "what I want to be when I grow up" air about it. You should talk more about the ideas behind your work, not just give a list of influences. Gripe over.

Hummm did you go to the-click.net route ?

Abstract Dark is a mini site I did for my G/F and their her eyes, she wrote the about section for that one. I'll see if I can get her off her butt to write something about her influences though ...

It was mainly the portfolio section from the front that I wanted looking at, plus some feedback on the xtras and royalty free photo archive.

But its all cool, thanks for the feedback.

I pasted the address you posted but couldn't get the portfolio or extras links to work. it's probably due to my shitty work computer.

Or it could be down to my JavaScript skills .. what browser you using? ...
I did test in IE6, NS6 and Opera ...
The portfolio and extra links use a generic open window script, with the link telling the window what size to be etc ...
Anyone else had any problems with this ?

...didn't have any problems with your JS (IE5,Mac). Like the simplicity of the layout but would have been nice to see the pop-up window elements integrated into the site instead of just using your mainpage as a linking element to other individual layouts.

Nice to see an html layout vs. a flash one for no reason.
