The first time is always the best! I would recommend turning off the link, forums, blogs. It doesn't make a lot of sense to right click protect, if you are gonna allow saving the photo through a link.

Attachment not found.

Like I did with the above shot. Use of the watermark will make screen shots less of an option too. If you are gonna sell them, you should try to limit the freebies!

I was looking at your site and found the "keywords" showing up before any photos to be a bad thing. On my PC no pic's showed up until I scrolled down. Remember some people are lazy, and may just keep on going.

PS.....I'm sure this wont be your last sale.

Thanks for the suggestions and taking the time to have a look. I'm working on making it a lot easier to search by bike number which will go in the bio section. When that's done, the keyword section can be drastically reduced or even removed. I left the links on so I could post the pics myself. Is there are better way to do that?

I turn mine off, and put any I want to post here in a private gallery and leave the links on. I aslo put my name on the photos I post on here, since they are clickable.

Can you move your keywords to below your galleries and such? I'm sure there is an easy way to do it, I just don't know it. It would be better if your potential customers saw photos first..
