Of course you can.

I was going for the clean look, but I can add some more colour if you think it'd help.

Did the site render fine? I've had reports of it being a bit iffy in certain browsers.

EDIT: Added a new entry regarding the colour - Please have a look :)
 
Very Impressive work!

You guys must have a blast doing that stuff

I always have a problem with "Enter" pages, I get the concept, but you're making me take a step that isn't necessary. If you were going to do that, I would suggest that the very first thing we see is a really kick ass flash screen with about 15 sec of a really tight montage of your work and sound that really knocks my socks off.

Then when the visitor enters, you've already established your cred as a production house, and now they're looking for other information and more specific portfolio pieces, contact info, etc.

Just my .02

Hey...if you ever need a still photographer in New England, give me a holler.

All the best,

Steve

Thanks lofight!

I'ts my first site using iWeb as I venture to make my photographic services more public. I was blown away that I could create something that looked so refined in one day! Gawd, a web dev house would have charged several thousand bucks for a site like that. I should know.....

Best,

Steve
 
My iweb site

I made this simple site in iWeb 1.0

I'm thinking of finding another solution though as the images just take sooo long to load. Does anyone know if iWeb prepares the images for web before publishing? If not what are the best settings (eg. png/jpeg etc)?

Any feedback very welcome

very nice illustrations! Are they handdrawn and then scanned? Or made with the Computer?

iWeb 1.0 uses .png graphics files, which look amazing (and permit transparency!) but require relatively large file sizes. I believe the .png format is also about the only one that is "truly" in the public domain.

Thanks! Nearly all of them are hand drawn and scanned in. Some of the children's book ones are entirely digital though.
 
The ideal is to optimize your images separately (which I haven't done yet) for the web. Assuming you don't want to give folks download capability. I would recommend a horizontal of 750pixels or vertical of the same dimension depending on the orientation of the image. Size at 72DPI and if you have Photoshop, "save for the web". I created separate folders in iPhoto as gallery sources and the images are too big. I'm going to go back in my portfolio and reprocess them the way I described above. Save any image enhancement until you've settled on the final size and resolution, then sharpen, etc.

Here is one of my sites
clubiweb.com
It is all in french but I think by clicking around for those who do not read french you might get a feel for all it has.
I used quite a few iframes and under "astuce" I have a demo of simpleviewer for those interested.
Let me know what you think as I can always improve on things.
