Designing the home page for my website

[kskitt]

Hi everyone

I came up with how i wanted the front page to look, but cant decide which of these to have on it.

1.

2.

First one. The second makes the fox look like he's almost part of the image on the left of him.

First one - the street name shot divides it into two separate entities.

I did a bit of tweaking and here it is

Nice, but I would of expected each image in the header to be clickable to the gallery it represents. As it is currently, it's too large and means I have scroll right down to click the gallery links.

Web users are lazy beings, the less scrolling or thinking the better

Thanks for all the comments. Ive sorted out a few more things on it, purchased the domain name and sorted out email forwarding:

I think it's a bit distracting how your left eye is creeping into frame, and the right click disable will do nothing but annoy people.

I would also swap the road sign image with the fox, splitting up the two 'nature' ones.

Have you actually looked at the website? The original two designs havent been used, but a different one that i arranged and much prefer. Have a look - http://www.kaystewartphotography.co.uk/

Checked out web site and just a personal thing. I would have the street sign as first image. Your eyes naturally read left to right and the sign would lead you into images. The girl on the end finish it as it would appear she is just walking into the frame.
Just my view.

Of course I looked at it. How do you think I found the right click thing?

And which part of my comments didn't you understand?

I think if the panels were clickable and lead to something that would be better instead, when you do click you get a warning message, almost telling you off!

They are nice images but not sure what message you are trying to convey to be honest.
and on my 15" screen when i move down to see the whole picture i lose the buttons menu at the top - so unless i realise i cant go anywhere, something to consider - maybe swap the menu and your name bar around?

Every image here speaks about something and they are arranged in a way the should define your personality. The way that you have arranged the images is indeed very attractive. It seems that I could learn a thing or two form here. Keep sharing such good works.

Hi Kay

Nice site, there are a few issues that if addressed will convey things much better. Look at the page content is aligned left on all but the home and about pages. I am sure a small CSS tweak + couple of photographs will make things look more pleasing to the eye

The front page has a lot of potential that needs unleashing.. I was expecting it to do this: http://www.marghoobsuleman.com/mywork/jcomponents/accordion-common/accordion.html

The copyright thing is annoying

Good luck with things
