Post Recently Launched Website: piXelatedEmpire.com!
Hi All

For the past couple of months I've been busy putting together my first website! (Hence the lack of photograph posts :oops: don't worry, I have a little collection to share! )

piXelatedEmpire Photography

I've been interested in web design & coding for a number of years, but have never gotten around to putting anything online. I finally found the inspiration to combine my passion for web design & photography with the release of this site, particularly now I have my first DSLR and some decent images to share.

I'd appreciate any feedback/comments you have or any quirks/bugs you may find. I'm particularly interested in how the rotating image banner on the main page works in different browsers, so if you could share your experience and browser info that would be great.

Thanks for taking the time to have a look!

Cheers

Nice website :mrgreen:

With the images on the main page - my browser leaves a small square in the top left corner of the white screen when loading the next image?

I was afraid of that :( Once the images are loaded, do they fade in and out properly?
Are you using IE7 or IE8 by chance?
Appears to be ok with with Firefox.

Thanks for your assistance Josh. I'm doing some work on the image rotating scripts, see if I can fix the problem.

Everything looks fine on my browser (Safari). I like the design and of course the images. Thats great that you have finally done something with the URL after 8 years :D Good luck with it Adam, I'll be checking it out often I'm sure 8-)

Looks OK to me. Initially the large images on the Home page took awhile to load.

Yeah, I've been setting up some caching options this weekend that will hopefully improve the loading times on those images. Thanks for having a look.
