Need feedback on my website
Fellow Legion folk. Iv'e put together a website showcasing some photography. I would really appreciate some feedback and/or critisism so I know where to begin making improvements. The site is in swedish but I think you'll understand it all the same. :)

it looks really nice - the menu is slick in particular.
Genuinely impressed and to me, a self confessed graphics whore, the whole thing smacks professional.
However, I know very little about photography nor do i know about building websites. I just know what looks good to me :)

Great site, though how it works wasn't readily apparent. Took me a second though that could be because I don't speak svenska!
If you're just showcasing, I wouldn't worry about that too much, but if you're building for business purposes, I would recommend offering an html version or ditching the "all flash" build for something that's a mix between flash and html. Search engines do alright with flash, but not as well as you'd like. It also reduces the number of problems that users have with browsers, bandwidth restrictions, flash versions, and other weird hiccups.
I usually recommend that designers offer an html/flash version of the site with a link inside that to a fully flash interface. That makes sure the user doesn't get hit with a loading screen at the start and avoids the dreaded Splash Page. (ugh) You don't get a great deal of time to impress your visitor, so anything that you can do to reduce how long it takes for you to wow them, the better.
All that said, I love the design and the photography! #2 particularly rocks!

The site rocks, but you should change your phone number on the site. If they try to get a hold of you for the big contract$$$, it is nice to point them to a phone where they can actually reach you :p

VBery nice design and some really nice pictures (e.g. number 02 is really great), too bad it's flash, as I would have loved to get some of them as a background picture for my PC ;-)

Indeed
The only negative thing is the green round loading icon every 3 or so pics. The icon doesn't really match the rest of the colours of the website etc.

Since when does a flash container keep you from ripping images ?
What kind of a web developer are you ? :P
