Website updated, comments?

[Mr Jones]

Hi guys, I've updated my website after changing from using WYSIWYG software built + Simpleviewer, to using Wordpress - for ease of blogging on top of being able to display my portfolio with a theme which I REALLY like.

I've yet to update the events and weddings categories yet.
I'm wondering if I should add my 52/2010 project on the webpage. Part of me tells me not to since I'm already showing it on my flickr and most of them are rather experimental.

Anyway, comments and feedback are appreciated.
My scripting skills are lacking and adjusting a template like this is really tricky, so I'm rather limited on bells and whistles. Tips would be greatly appreciated too!

Thanks!

Hmm, I'll see what I can do with regards to the font sizes. I can read it alright on my 18.3" screen at 1080p, but have yet tested on small screens or resolution. Will look into that.

Thanks for the comment, I'll be adding a home in the nav bar, changing that Event Portrait and wedding bit and will reword my about page.

As for the >, it does what the guys above have said, and it's working on FF, IE and Chrome as far as I know. Only if you're viewing from a smaller browser will it reveal its function.

Edit: Just looked into implementing a logo, any suggestions? I'm not very good with designing one. I'm thinking maybe just words but fancy?

And Mp4, it is indeed a wordpress themes. Found it by chance and thought, I want that as a site!

Just had a look at your 52/2010 and the end pic on the top row 'Reach out for the light' there is a typo

Sorted

Stylish site. As above, it could be easier to navigate.

Regarding how potential clients may view you; holding a knife in the about me photo?? Nice pic but maybe not for that context!

Agreed. Will look for a new photo of myself. I rarely any any 'decent' ones.

I didn't mean the font size, it's a good size but the colour doesn't stand out. Maybe it's just my preference tho

I can see that being an issue, but as a style, I really like it and might just leave it as it is. Will see

Really like it and some very nice photos

but when i click a photo it takes me to another page

i would find it much nicer if by clicking a photo it opens in a pop out and then fades away when i click back

That's something I have been looking for an it's a barrier with my limited knowledge of CSS/HTML (essentially any coding!)

Thanks! i've given up with trying to design my own site and use dreamweaver to code it..lol

I shall look in to word press , how easy are the templates to edit?

I've been using a similar WYSIWYG program but found it limited and most of the time, the coding is very messy.
Wordpress is easy and user friendly for an amateur who knows what theme is available and want. As for editing, there's a lot of possibilities BUT one must know what to do first, which I don't

I like it - quite unique and very clean. One thing I wasn't keen on, though, is that if a prospective client wished to look through your portfolio, which one would expect, I wouldn't welcome the swearing you have used in 52-03. My only gripe at the moment.

Totally agreed. Forgot about it and have since edited it to something less harsh.

On another note, my contact form isn't working I've tested and kept sending messages, it's not working :/
