Give my site the once over

Got a thin skin? Then look elsewhere. Post a link to an image that you've made, and invite others to offer their critiques. Honesty is encouraged, but please be positive in your constructive criticism. Flaming and just plain nastiness will not be tolerated. Please note that this is not an area for you to showcase your images, nor is this a place for you to show-off where you have been. This is an area for you to post images so that you may share with us a technique that you have mastered, or are trying to master. Typically, no more than about four images should be posted in any one post or thread, and the maximum size of any side of any image should not exceed 950 px.

Forum rules
Please note that image critiquing is a matter of give and take: if you post images for critique, and you then expect to receive criticism, then it is also reasonable, fair and appropriate that, in return, you post your critique of the images of other members here as a matter of courtesy. So please do offer your critique of the images of others; your opinion is important, and will help everyone here enjoy their visit to far greater extent.

Also please note that, unless you state something to the contrary, other members might attempt to repost your image with their own post processing applied. We see this as an acceptable form of critique, but should you prefer that others not modify your work, this is perfectly ok, and you should state this, either within your post, or within your signature.

Images posted here should conform with the general forum guidelines. Image sizes should not exceed 950 pixels along the largest side (height or width) and typically no more than four images per post or thread.

Please also ensure that you have a meaningful location included in your profile. Please refer to the FAQ for details of what "meaningful" is.

I've been busy the last few days getting my photoblog up and running

While it's still in the early stages (as in front page and an archive and so far only one post) I was wondering whether you guys could give it the once over and give me some feedback.
Comments are particularly welcome from anyone on a Mac as I've not been able to check on that system yet.

Andy the image comes up well, but personally I think it needs some clearer direction, maybe an intro or similar to let people know what they are looking at.

Hi Andy,

I like it. Very simple easy to navigate.

As Glen said maybe a small intro but then again I actually liked not knowing what I was looking at straight away, made me want to look further at your site.

Also, what excactly is a photoblog???

Thanks guys -

I've written notes where appropriate for each post under the image itself, I wanted the photo to be the first thing you see rather than the description. Had it been a gallery, I think it would be better the other way around as you suggest Glen.

Woody, a photoblog is just a weblog except that you document your day-to-day struggles with images rather than words. Have a look here for more information. :)
