Smile feedback please

I have just rebuilt my website.

I would really like to know what people think of it.

Hi Nick,

Website looks good - nice clean design. Made me smile looking at some of your images as I'm Chipping Norton born and now living near the heritage coast!

I think the only suggestion I would make is to maybe fill the side panels with a little colour to concentrate the viewer into the central text/image panels - maybe use the border colour...? It looks a little 'white' at the moment...

The site looks great, Nick. Loads fast which is the main thing. Interesting reading about your past career. My husband is a clinical psychologist but is thinking of moving into photography full time and maybe doing some sort of photo-therapy with his patients.

I think Chippy has always been 'sort of' there, never was quite right! south coast much nicer

I went for the blanket pricing option a) it's easier for purchasers, one price plan fits all and b) it's a hell of a lot easier when using PayPal basket as you use the 'create similar button' option and then only need to change the title, all other properties copied over

Cheers
Andy

Hi Nick,

Like the site and it loads really quickly with good transfer speed between the pages. For me though, the Home Page is too busy.
