I've been critiquing and writing tutorials, so I feel like going into a bit of detail. :)
Using Firefox/3.0.19 on Linux64: - front page: the text in the right hand image is really dim, and "Design" is cut off at the bottom. Can you add alt text so when you roll over the images you know where you're going (the links don't have obvious names). - illustration page: I probably have a small monitor, but I'm having to scroll down to see the full image. No link to go back to the home page or the design page? The browser back button iterates back through the images I clicked on. - design page: I like the title underneath the images, can you add some to the illustration page? Only had to scroll down on the Badriya one, which was necessary to see the title. Clicking on the images to go back/forward sometimes doesn't work, and the last image page still has a next arrow come up but clicking on it doesn't do anything. Ah, took me a bit to figure out the clicking in the left/right half of the image to go forward back, clicking in the right half of the last image doesn't do anything. I'd almost prefer only click to go forward and circle around to the beginning page again. Same behaviour verified on the illustration page. -finally figured out the up arrow to go back to the home page, I'd prefer if your name was a link to the home page, and I could click on the Illustration or Design text to jump directly to the other page. - on the about page, instead of linking to the top page of redsilverdesign, link to the about page.
I know of a site that has a window pop up when you try to right click and save - hmm, think she changed it, now right click does nothing: http://www.spinning-head.com/
It should be noted that I am not coding this site at all -- all the code/navigation/templates are from carbonmade, like a blog.
The text on the right hand image is a watermark, for copyright protection, and the image thumbnail is cropped by carbonmade, not by me (otherwise I'd crop to the image faces). The watermark is an old one -- I just had that image available, I need to dig it up w/o the watermark.
But titles to the illustration images -- yes, I can add those. Rollovers are sadly not an option on this site. I can also go back and re-size all the images so that they are roughly the same, once I'm home and dig through my hard drive. Those things I can fix. As well as the link to the about page and adding more about text.
More later -- right now about to drive to Maine...
