Hi all.

My latest website had to look 100% professional and I think I have done the front page well enough but I really need ideas and concepts for the other pages. If you see other sites with good ideas eg: the photo gallery, then please post them so I can erm… take influence.

If anything no matter how small looks amateurish then please do post.

the thumbnail images on the photos page might look better if they are all the same size. other than that, looks pretty good.

This is one of the better automobile sites I've seen posted here hands down. Those that have posted prior to this with a car site should take notes!

I like the fact that you handled and contained the content in a 760 table. Not only that, the space between the header and footer is also where content is contained.

Its clean and has a great professional look to it (geat use of white and white space).

Keep up the good work.

Looks very professional. Nice, simple design. I liked the gif in the technical specifications page.

Good job!

I want a to be able to show the photographs in a clean but unique way so I am hunting around for ideas if anyone has any. I can use JavaScript but dont want to use flash on this bit.

I am going to re-do that in flash cos it will be a fraction of the size and i can fade.

Thanks I believe that (and you can quote me)… Good designers knows what to take away as well as what to add.

The thumbnails are a must....and I think that you could replace the text links with graphics so they would look a little more stylish.

Other than that, nice job!

Yeah! Very good.
I agree with everything :-)
You'll surely find something nice for the thumbnails. I'd keep the style and just put some kind of nice black/white border around them. But really....
niiicccce!

i have a script i've been using to make thumbnails utliizing the GD libraries, but in your case it might be better to make the thumbnails yourself, let me know if ya want it

np
the problem with a script for thumbnails is that it will make it proportianate to the original ratio. that is why i suggest you do it yourself ;)
