Just completed a site for Artist Tania Corse.

"Simply elegant" is what we were going for.

Seeking critique.

Mozilla gave me an adblock on the flash for some reason.

The navigation is nice and easy to follow.

From a design standpoint the onlything I have to nitpick is the gradiants. The shadow under the images look perfect, however, the blending border around the navigation(links and rectangular body) is a bit too much play on shadows. This isn't necessarily bad but since it does throw the content out more but at least try to be more subtle.

I would also change the text that says "course creations" to another font or give another background. It doesn't look clean for some reason and it strays to close to the border.

Alot of people only use firefox/mozilla and its giving a block here too which makes me, or a potential customer, unable to view it altogether.

One thing I really really didn't like what putting a bunch of white keywords in your page. Thats commonly discouraged upon.

Lastly a flash only site is not usually a good idea. But because I can't see the content I can't comment on that too much.

Other than that I really like the footer, its a good font, decent yet simple color linking to atmost 1 relevant site.

Thank you for your input.

The site works fine in Firefox.

White keywords are just a search engine friendly version of what is contained in the Flash movie and graphics in the movie.(analogous to alt tags?) They are COMPLETELY relevant to the site and are in no way a deception to the SE's.

A really nice site. As a former builder I appreciate the work. I would just like to see it more clearly. Perhaps more light when you photograph. For instance in the Marbeling section I really want to see details but the image is too dark. God is in the details in that business.
