Great looking site. That took you a lot of time to create I bet.
Comments:
-I had a hard time with reading the text against that background. Change font color?
-I would prefer a bit more content on page 1. I bet that will boost your rank to 4 in no time and visitors have something to read.
-the picture is blurry and the big copyright line in there is distracting. Maybe you can make that a little smaller.

error in meta:
<META content="Timothy Beer" name=Author>

change to:
<META content="Author" name="Timothy Beer">

cheers

Thanks for taking the time to have a look at the site.
I am seriously considering Nuking it to see if things improve in the rankings so it will make the font easier on the eye.
I have always been of the opinion that a quick loading first page was the way to go, maybe more content would work better, will resize pic now.
Once again Thanks for your opinion. ;)

Default Hello

I too agree that the corydora site was a bit hard to adjust the eyes too. Not sure if it needs a new font, or a different background.

The Digital Gallery is a very informative and easy to navigate. It has much to offer to anyone interesting in images, to say the least. You may want to consider though, rather than a banner at the top with the search immediately under it, moving both to a different location? Takes from the beauty of the site itself.

Both websites have potential. Keep at it, and I am sure you will prosper.

I'm going to do the corydora site

1. You need a logo that tells about your business what you have now is really not that good of a logo.

2. I would get rid of the scrolling text.

3. The blue text on the blue back ground makes it a little tuff to read.

4. I do not like a background that does not move with the text.

5. Some of the pages make you think you have left the site.

I would try to keep the look, nav., and colors the same.

But your off to a great start
