After over a year. It has been completely redone and I imagine it will be a work in progress for a while until I get it just as I like it and add any images I forgot to add! The URL is the same as it was before.

This is exactly something that I have been looking for. Did you build the site yourself, or did you use some preconfigured server?

Up until now I have always used Microsoft FrontPage and built it myself. It is getting harder and harder to find sites which even offer the FrontPage Extensions any more so I just said the heck with it and went on Wix and built it with one of their templates. The templates are certainly quicker than doing it all yourself but there are some other things I want to add to it using HTML but like I said, it is a Work in Progress for the foreseeable future.

That is very odd, I don't know why that would be so. I don't use Firefox so I was not aware of that.

I opened IE and the page loaded -- very slowly -- and remained blank white until the last of 37 items had loaded, then it populated. In FF, I can right click and read your page coding, but see nothing. I have no blocks on the page and the latest java, etc installed.

I figured it would be some Javascript template. I used Piwigo and just found their server to be really lacking in detail and in execution speed. I'm a software engineer myself, but like most things in our jobs, I find myself not wanting to work on code on the side. lol. That will surely change. If I find other neat web things, I'll be sure to be in touch.

No problems here in Chrome land!
I like your site, and I'm going to tell you exactly why I like it in 3 simple words.

Easy to navigate.

A lot of these photographers sites are a serious pain to navigate. When I go on a site, and can't figure out how to go back to the category that I was looking at earlier within a few seconds, then I hit the close button. Not interested in taking 20 minutes just to figure out how to navigate through a site. Turns me off real quick.

I did my best to make my original site easy to navigate as well but I agree this one is very easy. The only page I am considering adding sub-pages to is the portraiture page. But even then, the nav bar in the footer will remain visible.

Well, it appears that not only are you back home, but you are also thawed! Welcome home, and the site looks great! It's clean (uncluttered) and the content is superb.

Never before have I been more thankful for hot weather! It is as cold or colder there in September than it is here in FEBRUARY. My blood is too thin living in FL for the 27 years to be living in that kind of a climate. I for damn sure am not going to live in -40 degrees temperature in February
