    Look easy enough to use? I wanted it easy enough for the most novice computer user to use and buy photos!

    Hey Janie,
    I'd say you've accomplished your goal of a simple, pleasant intuitive lay-out. A few things: your "magnolia" image didn't load on my computer. Other than that, I kept clicking on the "Fabled Fotography" button and waiting for something to happen but then I realized I was already there :p My only sales suggestion might be to add a picture of what it looks like to have an image double-matted and/or framed? That be more work than what it's worth though.

    Very nice! Best of luck to you and your sales!

    I like the layout. Well thought out, and easy to navigate. Well done!

    Hmm, that second magnolia is supposed to be my popular pink magnolia - i wonder if my script mixed up the pictures and dropped it. argh.
    thanks!

    As for the matting - I will be doing custom matting so when an order is placed, i'll e-mail them with 3 inner matting choices, the outter matte will be black. I finally bit the matting myself bug - but boy is it tough! lol I bought the Logan Matte Cutting system - had a 50% off coupon and it was priced at $69.99 so I got it for around $35! ;-)

    Michaels?
    Did you happen to get it from Michael's? I know they run 50% off coupons fairly consistently. I also bought a Logan mat cutter from there but I bought the "Delux Pull Kind" rather than the push style. Then I bought the sliding straight edge thingey. It's hard. I mainly use for cutting my business cards with :)

    I don't remember which version it was, just that it was originally $80 or so and I got it half price! I have three separate cutting tools to use, one of which I already had, one is beveled and one is to cut the outer edges of the boards.

    Better
    than the last---it's nice simple and clean...only thing (probably just me) I have a hard time reading the Fabled part it looks like falled because of the font

    I still love the angel girl on the beach ---it reminds me of the victoria's secret campaign ad they did for a perfume...

    Nice Halloween images...I like the tilted one MUCH better

    Hum. Don't want anyone to think it's FAILED photography! lol I'll have to play with the font more. I did have a nice edwardian font and changed it to mistral for a more contemporary feel, but maybe the edwardian was better. Thanks for the heads up!

    LOL---not failed
    maybe keep the photography as the Minstral and the Fabled as a non script and solid... (edwardian)...you'll figure it out Your VERY creative;)
