Okay, here goes - My site. Help, please.
Well, finally I've got my site up. http://deboe-art.com/ It's not finished yet, still have many more paintings to upload and right now only the IMAGES and the HOME links work - the other pages have nothing in them.

I'm asking for you to please check it out and tell me how it looks on your monitor. On mine, of course, it's just the way I want it and is best in Firefox. For some reason, the alignment is off in IE - I'll worry about that later because I've had enough of HTML :crazy:

On my husband's monitor it looks so gigantic and I hate it. I've asked relatives and a few friends and they all say it looks just fine to them. So at this point I'm not sure whether to worry about it not appearing exactly as I want to everyone else.

Thanks a lot!

1. Your art looks good. The small icons are hard to see until you click on them.
Overall, your site looks good as is your art as well, a kind of surrealism with the human form. I like it.

Yeah, I'm just gonna push on with the rest, fix alignment in IE and stop being such a control freak. Thanks for appreciating the art too, that's Always a good thing to hear :)

3. It show fine on my monitor
First off, I like your style, the composition, theme, medium all that. I like how you listed the size, title and what you used to create it.
I'd put a bio page on there too. Tell people about yourself and tell people about your art. Go visit my website and if you see any ideas you like, steal 'em! :)

4. Dyedinthewoolliberal, thanks very much
for checking it out and letting me know.

Yeah, I'm getting to the bio page soon. I just got so sick of HTML and needed a break, after taking almost a year to learn it just for the homepage and gallery page.

Your art is an absolutely wonderful explosion of color. Same here, I like the style, composition et cetera. But I got hungry looking at it. Your work to me seems almost edible, even the landscapes. I was happy to see the still life included, don't feel so weird wanting to eat the art :rofl:

I will review how you did your biography for tips when I'm ready again.

Thanks very much!

The layout and even more so the art itself. :)
