How can I do all this? Simple. Two little words (and one fav photographer/friend) - Showit Sites (thanks to David Jay). His website (and the fabulous Jasmine Star) have their websites done with the same program so that'll give you an idea of just how awesome it can be (and where I hope to end up shortly!). You can download the program for free and start playing around with it right away if you're interested. There's even a cool video tutorial or two on the Showit website to demo how it works. I highly suggest watching it - it's not too long and it'll blow your mind. Especially if you've ever had website headaches like me! It's seriously awesome - I can't thank DJ enough for taking on this major undertaking (and all the people on the Showit team).

Love it!!! Keep up the awesome work!
Looks good so far! Where are your galleries / portfolios? Also, did you intend for the graphic in the lower left to *not* be locked to the bottom of the frame? If you skinny-ify your page, like some people with huge monitors do, your text goes way down to the bottom of the page and the graphic slides up to cover some of the actual page itself. I found that it helps to lock everything to the TOP of the page, and just off-set it down by however many pixels you want. I'd show you what I mean on MY showit site, but it's NOT live yet...
Take care,

Hey Brienne, I'm liking the new look. As Matthew said, it'll be nice to see some albums, but I'm sure that's coming. I just wanted to make one suggestion...
The image on the front page is a bit blurry. I'm assuming it's the same image from your blog, resized. It looks like the resize has caused the blurriness. If it is the exact same image as the blog and has been resized using code, maybe enlarging the image in photoshop first would get rid of the blurriness. Good luck!!
I am not sure if this is what Matthew was referring to, but the links at the bottom run together for me; contact and about are over each other (I think that is what they are, kinda hard to tell). Also, a "home" link would be nice to return to the main page. Look forward to seeing it as you add more to it.
Rock on! :) Keep up the awesome work!
