I just made my first website. I've never done this before so I was flying blind. I need to add more pictures, and some are redundant because I don't have enough, but I need to know what I need to add...take away..change. I'm thinking about taking away the gallery on the first page since there is a seperate gallery page and adding some more text info on the front, but this was the way the template was set up, so I kept it as is until I am more comfortable with tweaking it. You can be brutal...It won't hurt my feelings. Like I said, I'm not very tech savvy, so I had no clue what I am doing.

Hey I couldn't get the link to work, even after I took out that accidental [/url]. Are you sure you've got it right?

Hello, Smiletime!

I found a typo on your RATES page:
$30.00 deposit and a signed contract is required to reserve you date.

Should be:
$30.00 deposit and a signed contract is required to reserve your date.

Overall, it looks very nice. Bold, graphic, not too busy. You may want to try to find a way to have your phone number listed on at least the home page, if not every page. I agree that you might want to put a little more text on the main page since there is a separate gallery page and then maybe just one or two big pics on the main page. The only other thing to think about is whether there might be a more "positive" way of phrasing the FAQ for "who do you paint?"... it just comes across as kind of negative with I won't paint this and I won't paint this and I won't paint this... you might be able to rephrase it as, "I will paint anyone over one year of age that would like to be painted. However, I cannot paint anyone with visible illness or broken skin."

OK...I fixed the typo and made the FAQ seem more positive. I see what you mean. It did seem a bit negative before. Now I need to get some boy pictures. All the pics I have of boys are Wolverine, Flash, Batman, etc. and I don't want any copyright problems... All my neighbors are girls!
