FLASH: Re: Portfolio site

[Jeff Talbot]

Hi Karin, nice gallery site. Very much liked the 'hand-drawn' imagery. 

One very small suggestion - perhaps some text to encourage 'non flash

heads' to experiment and click on the images. The originals are nice

pieces of work in their own right and some visitors might not get to

see the rest! Possibly on the 'loading' screen? Didn't quite get the

'Stones' game - perhaps that's just me being thick ;)


Keep up the good work,


Jeff
