Hi,

I was hoping to get your thoughts on the website that I designed for my wife's business.

Apple users can tell me if it looks good and aligned in center in their Safari browsers. I don't have an Apple so I can't test this.

I know in IE7, pages are misaligned, but I am trying to get a fix for it.

here is the site: http://www.fotomango.com

Appreciate feedback.

    Why was this moved to Smugmug customization? The site isn't based on Smugmug??????

    Simple mistake one of the mods made, trying to keep the forum tidy. As you can imagine, most of the posts of this nature are about SmugMug sites. I've moved it back.

    Sorry for the hassle! thumb.gif

    It looks beautiful. I'm on a Macbook, everything looks right. The "About Us" and "Services" pages are daunting. Too much type. And I'm not sure you should put your personal bio in there. Should be more sales oriented, boosting confidence in the customer that you have the chops.

    No Problem. Thanx for the fast action.

    I am glad you all the like the site. The goal was to keep it simple and clutter free.

    I will take the advice on "too much type" and "personal bio" into consideration. Will have to come up with something different.

    Thanx

    Oh..I don't mind more feedback. :P

    Hi!

    Well I am on Firefox and on the about us and services pages ...

    I am presuming that you made that box to have the text and be placed on top of the off white background. With that white showing on all sides, but when I go on it .. the text block is at the end of my browser and I intuitively try to scroll down thinking there is more.

    Got it. I saw that too, but didn't think anything of it.

    I will try and get this fixed. It is really tough to do and keep all browsers happy. If I make one change, it affects another browser....sucks really.

    But, I will give it a go. Good point. THanx.

    It's suuuper slow for me. As in 2 minutes and still hasn't loaded anythign but white boxes. I assume you're just doing maintenance or something or this would have been mentioned already.

    Hmmm...I will have to look at the timings. I think I will have to change hosts or something. I think my host is bad. Hmmm...time to check that.
