    Can you please review my digital art work and maybe give suggestions as to what I could do with it to "cash" on it.

    I was advised to consider post card / greeting cards.

    What do U think :)

    THANK U :) :)

    Also, if U don't mind to rate from 0 to 10... 0 sucks :(

    Art Gallery: Neat effect... after the first couple, but you may want to display a wider variety of PS tricks. Really it is about the same 'shopjob on 100 photos... no offense, it is cool, the first few times.

    Chiseled & Raw: Another neat effect, but filters are only so cool.

    This is what I do: If these are all retouched, I'd post less retouches and add some originals to compare the photoshop wizardry in action. (Perhaps some in the same manner as your C&Rs, and some side by sides)

    I'd put some more words, i know it is an image rich page by design, but some written explanations would help non-photoshopers (which will be most of your business) realize what you are doing, and extra text content will dramatically help your page rankings.

    Slick, tight page visually overall. I imagine you are/will be employing all the standard SEO practices...

    Thank U for the tips.

    I was thinking of adding pages and showing the before pic in small then explain where it was taken etc then have the big one.

    On the chiselled, it's not a filter work, each picture required about 30 layers and steps. i thought of having on rotating step by step.

    thank U for the tips :)

    Well it is way to slow for me now, I really don't know why maybe that's something you want to have in mind ;)

    (No, it is not my internet connection, I have excellent speed now for other sites )

    They are very interesting pieces of art. You would work on optimizing your images so that they load faster. My favorit way to do that is with ignite

    I think u should use some free software like joomla or galeryfix, cause it can make your art work become more cute :d

    Great works.
    But I think you must use different page like < 1-2-3-4 > Because all images in page, very slow..

    good work.. But .. you have to sharpen the images bit more.
    and as said by the other members.. the web page loading is very very slow.. try to work on it.
    good luck :)

    Same as above I guess.. slow loading page. Try mixing the images up a bit. Maybe have a couple of big images on the page and then a thumbnails area for the rest. That might help with the loading time. If the photos on the right are one long image, that is really slowing the page load

    Also wouldn't hurt to use some magic photoshop skills on your banner/logo.
