[QUOTE="Browncoat, post: 3176, member: 1061"] Not at all. Traditional websites certainly have their place, mostly commercial. However, I'm of the new Web 2.0 school of thought...which means websites should be living, breathing, interactive things. Static web pages of old are simply outdated. The internet grows exponentially each and every day. By the time I finish this post, over ten thousand web pages will have been created. The odds of someone finding you out there in cyberspace are slim to none, unless the framework for your site is set up correctly. I wasn't trying to knock your site, don't get me wrong...rather providing some honest feedback from someone who works "in the biz". Flash is awesome and is great in certain situations. But it is also severely limited when compared to a text-based site for a variety of reasons. And yes, I am an advocate of WordPress. I use it myself and have developed many other sites with it. There are themes geared specifically towards photographers and there are numerous plug-ins for displaying galleries too. It's a quick and painless way to get a quality looking site up and running. If you want something more custom, take a look at the Thesis theme, which is what I use. You can make it look however you want with some basic CSS knowledge. [/QUOTE]
