Nice photos. I'd like to be able to see bigger versions of a few
of them - 'ice bubbles' and 'all that glitters' in particular, but
I'm not saying the lack of that feature is a problem.
I'm not crazy about the page layout. It's not bad, but it seems a
bit too scattered, the way the photos are spread out and the need to
scroll so much to see them all. For the number of photos you have
here, it's okay, but any more, and I think a thumbnail gallery would
work better.

Sorry about that Ian. As I have stated before I am still learning how to do
it all, I will be converting my wav files to mp3's as time permits, that
should help.
Thanks for the input.

No need to send me the photos, I'll wait for the next version of
your website. But thanks for the offer.

consider convertion of your background sound into 64kbits, 44khz, mono
format
also you can produce wav file in mp3 format with audio active production
studio
(just for example & only imho)
make several files with different compression/quality ratios to find the
best suiting you & your users
luck

I hope to get it "fixed" so that I can have hyperlinks to larger photos
soon, just never seem to have enough time and patience
I'll let you know when I do have it ready, I appreciate that you are willing
to check back in.

If you want people to stay away from your site, play unwanted music. If I'm
already playing music on my computer, the last thing I want is for some web
site to start playing music by itself. If you think your visitors would
enjoy listening to sound files, give them the choice, but don't start
playback until they explicitly click on something.

Thanks Eric, I hadn't thought of that. I will work on making that change
soon.
As always I appreciate all tips and comments.
Have a great one!

Wait! Not everyone likes thumbnail galleries. I don't, you can check
my pages and tell me what you think. I like your look. The idea of a
series of photos telling a story appeal to me.
I might experiment a bit with some sequences I've shot.
Overall your content is a bit thin. I mean the photos aren't that
interesting. A couple of them show promise. And, I could find ways to
improve all your photos but I won't. Let's just say keep working on
your photography, your webpage skills are fine

Hmm, she must have changed it already, I didn't get any auto music.

Weird, when I went back again I heard the sounds. Nice actually.
But no music.

Sorry Jim, I haven't changed them yet, some pages have only sounds, like
thunderstorms and wind blowing, the last one has a musicbox. I have been
swamped with getting ready for spring and have decided to post all future
photos on snapfish.com. <a style='text-decoration: underline;' href="http://www.snapfish.com/home/t_=9273196" target="_blank">http://www.snapfish.com/home/t_=9273196</a>
The webpages are fun to make when I have time, but as I stated that is a
precious commodity lately
Thanks again for your input!
