I'd be happy to proof read. Clumsy grammar and spelling errors always put me off exploring a website.

I'm not much of a proof reader but I'm will to offer anything I know about websites and suggesting ideas.

Count me in.

cool! i'll put ya'll on the watch-dog list.

there were a couple things that gave me this idea. one is the frequency of the "hey-look-at-my-site" threads. the other was this: i happened to visit a member's site and immediately found a busted link and some way out of date stuff (a blog that hasn't been updated in 11 months 13 days). personally, i'd appreciate a "heads-up, you're zipper's down" if someone found stuff like that on my site, especially if it was a professional site...

Skip,

Got your email earlier today, at work, and just had the chance to respond! Sure, count me in. I find myself responding to a lot of the "hows my site" polls. In fact... I just updated my site, so howsaboutsa critique :)!

www.adammathiasphotography.com.

Work done- added a links page, updated several photos, changed how the music works (and yes, my music IS LEGAL TO USE), put in a new logo, added a green page, etc etc.

Now, anyone else want one too?

Sounds awesome! I'm in the middle of a complete overhaul/replacement of my photography website now (with the addition of a blog, so-help-me)... so I'll definitely love to get some helpful eyes double-checking it soon. While I'm not the best "self-checker," I'm notorious for finding others' grammatical and spelling errors, so I think I could contribute as a "checker" as well.

If I might be so bold as to nominate someone who is conscientious and knowledgeable in a real world way......

TeaFran is a pretty decent fellow for feedback....

Hey Skip, thanks for the PM. I'm happy to help out and have a look at some sites.

I'm more about the structure / navigation though than the spelling and grammar, for me it's all about the consistency and feel of a site, I'll happily click all the links and see if they confuse me!

My fellow Web-watchers, I've become subjected to the "hey check out my site" syndrome and I ask that you give me some feed back on my new redesigned site.

www.josephsalmi.com BTW this is a smugmug site.

I do have a few pages that I have not created yet but in short they will look just like the other pages haha
