    Teen pop idol branches out into photography shocker (I really need to change my username)!

    I’ve been meaning to do this for a while, and although it’s not finished yet (I need to write some words & add some more images amongst other things) here it is so far: http://www.jamesianvincent.com

    (Constructive) criticism is more than welcome.

    Thanks for looking…

    Great work! There is some amazing stuff there. Also love the logo!

    A stylish site, but if I had a criticism it’s that the navigation is perhaps a little too fussy/confusing. For example if you click on Next at the end of the Automobiles project the site goes to Bikes, yet the menu goes to Commercial.

    Some nice photos though

    Thanks guys.

    Stilltortoise – yeah, there’s still a bit of work to be done tidying up the navigation, but I think I need to find a friendly web geek to help me out, as it might be going a bit beyond my capabilities.

    Nice work! What did you use to make it?

    The navigation is a bit click heavy, you press something then get a view button appear that you press again. ‘Commercial’ is a bit lightweight with pics of the same thing (ice?) doesn’t look very commercial IMHO

    Very good, I envy you the terrain you ride. Likewise with some of the navigation crit, but it’s better than anything I could build so I should stfu.

    Jambourgie – it’s built in WordPress, using the Fluxus theme.

    MrSmith – I think I’ve sorted that bit now – clicking the link from the homepage takes you straight to the portfolio. The commercial stuff is actually all paid for arty stuff (a Christmas card for a design agency & a logo treatment of a brewery logo). I’ve only just started populating it, so will be adding some more to it in due course.

    Rossatease – thanks. It’s not bad around here, that’s for sure 🙂

    That’s a nice site. Navigation is simple. I like that you can scroll through the pics with the mouse wheel.
    Do you mind that fairly hi-res, unwatermarked photos can be nicked off your site?

    I ummed and ahhed about that and am yet to decide. I might watermark everything, but I like the clean look.

    I’m also aware that people will find ways to nick anything, and the images aren’t super high print quality, so I’m not overly fussed.

    What would you do?

    Me? Personally, I’d be chuffed if anyone stole one of my pics 😆

    You’ve got a bike shot in the Commercial tab.

    Otherwise, it looks good. I like the clean simple looking layout. Some great shots on there!

    Well spotted Mcobie, but that’s because it got printed in Privateer magazine. I could take it out and create a published section, but it might be a bit lonely all on its own 🙂
