OK. I think the spacing and stuff on the jpeg text wasn't helping. I've sorted it to a degree I think...

Hey, very nice work. I like the look of your work. A lot.

While your full-sized images are fine in Firefox 2, they aren't loading for me in IE7.

Beyond that, I'll share some impressions of your text image at the top of your home page. The first thing I saw was you have straight quotes instead of typographer's quotes, "curly" quotes.

Also, you've orphaned the last word in the first paragraph.

I'd like to see either an extra slip of space between paragraphs, maybe half of your leading, or a short first-line indent on paragraphs 2-4.

Since you've gone to the trouble of creating an image to capture your type style, you might as well go all the way!

Thanks for sharing your beautiful work.

Hahaha... type nerd.

You're right - I was sloppy and orphaned a word. But I'm not a fan of indents, and there is a little extra space between paragraphs already, though maybe not enough to be noticeable...

Having said all that, I'm probably going to ditch the text image and add some more info, as suggested earlier....

Hahaha... code nerd.

TBH, and I know you'll hate me for this, if the images show up to the viewing public, then I'm not that fussed. I don't design for web, so it isn't an issue from a client point of view.

I will, however, strive to fix the errors when I update it...

I enjoyed the site very much, but like someone else pointed out, the text being an image, not actual text, troubles me a bit.

I like the overall effect though, very much. Good job.
