I signed up for a free two-week trial of Zenfolio and have been playing around with it a bit since yesterday; uploading photos and such. I was wondering if anyone would be willing to look at it and give me your honest opinion of it - presentation, color scheme, chosen photos, etc... I'm debating whether or not I want to pay to keep the site after the trial period is up and would like to know if others feel this is an effective way to get my photos out there.
Please let me know if you're willing to do a critique, and I'll give you the link. :)
I do like the colors, except the navy seems a bit off on the verticle pictures where it's bordering on either side - is it possible to make navy border like it seems on the square pictures, and then turn the inside brown to match the background? I like being able to pause the slideshow, and I love that the image previews hide until you mouse over them. Nice work - and btw, gorgeous pictures!
I changed the border for the photos so that there's just one color, a light brown. I also changed the header and footer background to a light blue, but I'm not entirely sure I like that.
@appaloosa05 hi Megan, i visited your website but the photos (i assumed they're photos) couldn't be seen at the Home and About Me pages, not sure if it's my pc blocking them =(
@appaloosa05
I see what you mean. I'm not sure that one color vs. the other is better; it all looks lovely on the square pictures, but the one vertical one seems to make things wonky. :/ Sorry I don't really have any suggestions beyond that.
@ronphotography @jessicaelaine Thanks for agreeing to look at it.
