    Was wonder what you guys think. I plan on changing the Wordpress template whenever I get some free time to set down and create a better one. The site is about a week or so old and it is currently getting 10-20 visits per day. Is that pretty good? What can I do to do better?

    Thanks in advace

    Hi,

    Really nice site.

    Few suggestions:
    • On my laptop the site is very narrow, perhaps cos of my 1280 1024 resolution, you should test to see if this happens to others.
    • What you can do is get the logo/header done in flash, with maybe the fish swimming and with bubbles in the water. That will give it a really nice finishing touch.

    Hope that helps :)

    Thanks for the advice. About the site being narrow, I already planned on making it wider. Youtube videos don't look as good cause they have to be so narrow in order to get them to fit. That is something I definitely got to change.

    The flash logo/header is an excellent idea! Hadn't even thought of doing anything like that. Much appreciated :)

    Please change the logo and your minimize the font size (GILL GALLERY).If you note on the footer the feed icon is very large to fit in that area.My advice is 16x16 icon looks good.The overall color combination is really good.

    Nice colors. However, the layout is too narrow which means small print. I know most kids have no problem reading small print, but us adults do and your site does appeal to adults as well.

    I would say it is too old-fashioned. Just change the layout and it should be all good.

    It's hard me to say but logo is awful :(
