Let me know if you find anything difficult to use.
The site is designed to flex between 750px wide (for 800x600 screens) to 1230px wide (for 1280x960 displays and up). 800x600 is not optimal though. Generally the bigger the better. 1024x768 should work dandy though. It has been tested on Firefox 2, IE7, and IE6. IE6 doesn't get a logo, because it doesn't play well with png transparency. Opera users... ummm... sorry. :)
How 'bout them nifty image popups? Note... they size the image down to fit on your screen, minus a bit for a border. Less than ideal, since it can give a slightly jagged look sometimes, but it was the only way I could make it work on a small screen like 800x600 and still have images large enough for decent viewing on larger screens. If you don't like the resized version, click the more info and there is a plain link to just the image, no popup. Full size images are 700px in the largest dimension.
I'm probably going to add more stuff to it in the coming days/weeks. Besides more images, here's some of what I'm considering:
And thanks to

- a "Tell a friend" feature, for emailing links to individual pages
- moving home, contact us, info, & view cart to a toolbar, if i can figure out where i want it
- comments for each image (less likely, as I don't feel like moderating it)
- one or more random products pulled into the homepage for display
- A recently added images page, auto generating. Right now it's all recently added so no point.
- any suggestions?
And thanks to
