I do like the idea of two Enter choices.......one with music and one without. Didn't realize that music could evoke such strong emotions...

Music you like is music.
Music you don't like is noise.

It works for some businesses and not for others. It depends on your customer.

I did not get to hear the music as my speakers are always off. If I forget and leave the speakers on, I get mad at any music from any website. My rationale is that I can choose what to look at, but one cannot make a choice on sound - you hear it even if you don't want to.

Who cares that the guestbook is "out of fashion"? Whose fashion? Who cares what they think?

I surprised that such a big deal was made of these two items. Sheesh.

My comments:
It seems that the page is designed for a 1280 screen. The photos on my screen (Mac, Firefox, 1024x768) bleed to the bottom and right edges of the screen. If the photo is to large for my screen I get a slider bar for vertical but not for horizontal. If the photo is too wide, my screen just chops it off. Maybe some kind of auto scaling or clicking on the thumb to make it display the photo on a new page would help.

My thoughts, anyway. But it's a good effort - much better than my first attempt would be.

No way, man. DO NOT ditch the music. What the heck do these kids know from jazz anyway? Very nice job. Well, Brian Setzer we could do without, and maybe add some different selections from the era.

Ignorance = I ignore ants. Don't make too good o' sense, do it? The website is very nice... perhaps a little out of touch with today's "all about me" people who can't stop "texting" every other minute about some Hollywood bimbo boffing this guy or that... or just playing video games for one lousy second.

Again... I think it's very nicely done. Don't change a frickin' thing except (perhaps) making the stop music controls a bit bigger so those with extreme ADHD will notice it.

You might wanna check out your price list page.



I'm new to this, so what might the "other" be?


It's there.

The "other" would be that the images were made with a digital camera. That "d" word is generally verbotten on this forum :wink: Not that there is anything wrong with the medium, I use it probably 50:1 vs. film, but discussion of it is typicly frowned upon.

Ok, that makes sense. I was expecting some flawed technique or something.
