    Hi, i have been working on my website (Diamond Photography) for several months now and kind of just built it the way i thought was best. Obviously just because i like it does not mean others do.

    I would be very interested in the opinions of others?

    Does it look professional?
    Is it easy to navigate?
    Are there any glaring errors?

    Thanks in advance

    Looks pretty decent. You could improve the navbar, maybe put on a stylish one.

    Thanks for the input. Could you give me the URL of a site which has a more stylish navbar so i can see exactly what you mean.

    Thanks

    I like it when links change on hover.
    You can try adding a decent underline or changing the color slightly when you hover over the menubar.

    Also the "film strip" is a bit dull - why not make it a link to your gallery (or anything else)?

    I think you should put you contact details on your hompage or at least a sidebar where they are always in view no matter what page they are on. You may get more enquries!!!

    I use a memorable mobile number and a email addy!

    Like for me:
    1. Does it look professional? Not really. It's ok, but also looks like something is missing there. I would add at least a colour for links (when they are hovered) and work a bit with a backgrund, you could add a nice motive or something.
    2. Is it easy to navigate? Yes, it is.
    3. Are there any glaring errors? I didn't spot antyhing.

    Yes I agree it doesn’t look professional for me either.

    you should add a logo. make rollover links, maybe adding a different background color in the center content. or maybe adding a background image that can be on the right side or left side of the screen only.
