The Site: http://grandrapids.50webs.com
Information: Sorry if this has been requested before. I haven't ever asked anyone to design a website template for me, so here goes. Sorry if I seem too blunt. The site I need designed should be clean and represent a mood of profesionalism while offering the visitor a clear sence of where they are going in the site. This isn't a personal photographer's page, but a page where a photographer is posting pictures to an online gallery for visitors to view. I have viewed many photographer sites and they are almost always beautiful, they are clear, crisp, and clean.
Guidelines:
Design should be bold, clean, crisp, much like an architectural firms website with photographs as the main centerpeice. I would like for there to be a mood in the front page, like something artistic, but in the lines of fine design. :)
The frontpage should include a place holder for a random display of images (thumbnails, maybe in the size of 75x150 or so) from a folder on the server. I want this to be a feature that will greet the visitor and to keep the site from getting "stale." To warn you, the webserver doesn't currently support any extentions, basicly I can only use JavaScript or Flash on the site.
A navigational menu is a must, but can be placed where ever design permits, but these are the main headings required: about, f.a.q., photo gallery, contact me.
A photo gallery in the same design would be fantastic, but if this too intensive, nevermind.
CSS would be great to keep the HTML down in size
The front page should include the heading photoGR.be as the basic logo for the site.Again, sorry for being too feature packed, but I thought if you all knew what I would like to see in a template, that would help the design go along better. I also want you to know that I want your mind to wonder, let yourself be creative and follow within the guidlines and it should flow out. :)
Thank you for any responces.
