Yeah, forgot about that one, I had two images that were almost identical,
you couldn't tell a difference at that size, but blown up it is clear that
there are two different horses.

The reason for the black background is because photographs especially color
photographs seem much more vivid on black, the borders are actually light
gray, which causes the whites in the images to look much brighter, there is
a method to that madness.

I have some prints on my printed portfolio that have black edges and some
that have white edges, it never fails that people notices the black edge
prints more, for those of you not familiar with photography, the black edge
is a result of doing an enlargement from a slide.

I'm not crazy about the jump from a curvy, swoopy front page to very,
very angular internal pages.  But I'm wierd that way.

Also, the broken image on the sports page will fail to impress
prospective clients.

Hmm.  To be honest, the white-on-black with frame borders seems very
1998 to me.  Which, in 'net terms, could be old-school.  I'm not sure if
that was your intent or not.

On the other hand, the photography is pretty nice, and the ring shot on
the front page is great.  I like the organizational categories.  I like
the rotating/random images.
