    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 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!

    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;)
