Default Updating www.bigdoorart.com

I am considering updating the way you can view and select art in our gallery. I would appreciate any suggestion to improve a consumers response to buying from this section of our site.

Are there to many options of prints?
Is it easy to understand?
Would it be easier to search by meduim? rather than artist?
Is there to much info?
Are the art prints pictures large enough?

These are just a few questions...you input and suggestions will be considered in the revision.

Thanks in advance.

Nice site looking site...

In answer to your questions in IMHO...

I am not art ctitic but know what I like. I have no idea and don't really care who painted them so yes I would like to see a search on medium. I know if I want a B*W, fine art, oil as well as contemporary, photographic etc so would be nice to have options like that as well maybe. I buy with my eye and not my brain if that kinda sums it up...

I think the previews are too small yes. What I would like to see is the following...

1. An option to select the larger icon and have it open in a large window on my desktop, no other writing (excpet close window or something) so I can appreciate the art as it would look on my wall..

2. Would would be really really nice is to pick a background for the window in 1. that is a similar colour to my wall so that I can really see how it fits. Generally us blokes are cr*p at the visualisation and how colours go together so would be a massive bonus to have the background similar to our walls so we can see. It's possible with style sheets if u look round the web. Try this link http://www.sitepoint.com/article/she...-accessibility

Hope that helps...Oh I don't see any alt text eaither which would help your keywords and loko nice as well

I personally like the layout of your site and the presentation of each artist is very unique. I'd recommend adding ALT tags to the images throughout.

Also, the color of your top link text and some of the title text is too close to the color of your background. Darken that just a bit to make it easier to read.

In your description tag, you have "Big Door Fine Art" - remove [b] tags.

Nice job overall!
