I have run my own photography website for a couple years now. No one really ever looked at besides friends and family.
Now, however, I am using it as an extra curricular activity on my college applications (I do all my own programming and web-hosting, which takes as much time as the photos on it, so hopefully it looks good from the techy side too).
So, if you could, look through my site and tell me something you don’t like about it (nothing is too small or big).
Thanks a lot

The site looks well designed. However I feel it's let down by the navigation.
It's just too random. You have Albums, Charts, Singles, Picks, and Prints. Where do I go?
It's be nicer to see things in categories. I'm not sure what these headings really mean, or what I'll see when I click on them. Will I see individual shots, or albums of shots? Why are they sorted like that?
I just found it a bit confusing. |

It seems a little cluttered or over whelming you might say. You links under wallpaper (three of them) all go to the same page. On your lake link on the right side the links do not match the photo chosen. Also I would try to edit it so the pages open in a separate browser if you can as to not send people away from your site like you do when you send people to your DPC prints page, they have no way to get back. You would be better off showing them on your own site and keep people there.
Good luck |

good point with the Prints section, I just changed the way that works. I think its a bit improved.
The reason the wallpapers aren't linked directly to the corresponding image is because the images are some much larger than the other photos on my site, that I wanted a longer process in getting to them, to et them apart from the rest of the site.
I also do not see the mislink in the "Picks" section (the titles are above the images in all sections but the "prints" section, and that is due to a little programming snafu that I am looking into).
Thanks for your time Pioneer.

What I meant was in the wallpaper section all three links go to the very same page, or it looks that way. The links that did not correspond were in the right side of your main page is says lake (first snow). You go there, then you click the thumbnails above, there was a couple of those mixed up so they link to a different image. I see you have the word wallpaper linked as well, and the words, from the main page, having the prints link changed as you did I think will help to keep people there. Good job
