No I'm not claiming to be a designer, just a photographer who designed his own site from scratch. Currently teaching myself flash and dreamweaver.
What do you guys like to see. I got some good ideas, just having trouble executing. Suggestions. I think fast load, sections. I was just experimenting on that one. I don't think it works...

Thanks JazX

hey, why not download one of those Flash image viewer sites and just teach yourself some basics. Should be easy for you. What's that Flash Portfolio DLer thingie..?

cool shots.. you use your digital studio for edditing them (PS) I like your last shot on the bottom right. Did you set it up in a studio setting? The shot of the grandmother is also cool..

good idea, but I got a good start on a new flash site. Been looking at a bunch of photo sites to see what works, what doesn't. The only thing is I'd like to update often, and the way I understand flash, I'd always have to rework the fla.
Is there a better way?
I dont know that Flash Portfolio thing. Could you point me?

Yeah some digital, some film. And yeah I am into control, so when I can simulate something in the studio I do. Thanks for the props Blueman

You can use dynamic jpegs... Load them into movie clips. You'd need to build a littel dynamic menu for them also, it could be as simple as loading the menu in from a .txt file. If you're just starting with Flash it may be a few steps beyond where you're at today but worth looking into.

yeah you can use an XML file and edit it via whatever (Dreamweaver) for example. Such as changing the content that the Flash file is using. Also, could be done with a .txt file.

yeah, it's a little over my head.
But I'll post new site soon( in a couple weeks) and see what people think.

Why does the site have to be in flash?
