Can I get some opinions?
I just finished a website for my husband. He's a sculptor and if you have a moment, I would like your honest opinion of how its set up. Suggestions? Criticisms? Is it easy enough to navigate?

Thanks ahead of time... it's at: http://www.jenkinsarts.com

1. Not only is the page nice and easy, the work itself is fantastic.
That's one talented hubby.

I really like the simplicity of the webpage design. Totally easy to navigate. The only thing I might do is add one small example of his work under the writing on the home page. I know there's a collage on the left side, but a dash of color on the right would please my eye. However, that's an extreme nitpick that may not even apply to anyone but me and my own strange sense of balance, and your design is already excellent as is.

2. Yeah, I could do that.
You're right... it needs some color.

We are coming up on a slow period - hoping this will generate some interest for him. Darn economy is starting to effect his regular clients.

I appreciate the suggestion!

3. I was thinking a soft pastel color, maybe a yellow or green.
But like I said, that's just me. You should post this in the Lounge or something where you'll get more feedback before making any changes as I have strange taste in everything. :)

4. I may be limited by the software program...
I used Website tonight. It's ok but has limitations with posting pictures or blocks of anthing that isn't straight forward text. I may post in the lounge later this week ... when I get up the nerve... :)

5. I fixed it.
It does look better - more balanced. Thanks for that! I am off to see what the lounge lizards have to say.

6. Cool. Brings a dash of color for the eye to that side of the page.
:thumbsup:

Good luck in the Lounge, and in selling some of his work. I love the stuff.

And he owes you a hug and a kiss for your work. :)

Thanks again. I did put it in the lounge tonight. People there like it too.
