The Smugmug banner is so obnoxious, lol. Same company that is destroying Flickr. I got Zenfolio branding on my website but it is much less prominent. I would find a way to make your name stick out more from Smugmug logo (e.g. bigger and pure white text instead of light grey).
I agree with others who suggest saying a little about yourself (either on an About page or welcome message on the front page). There's no explanation or context for the photos at all.
I realize recently how having one's own website and domain is important, because presentation is an important part of the process.
People did start visiting my website after I started posting on my blog. I already spend time to write on forums like this, so might as well write posts on my site too, right? The fact that people actually visit my website now is what made me think maybe I should properly design my site and get a real domain name. I spent days changing the layouts, fonts, colours, everything.

I recently updated mine with only platinum prints. I do change them from time to time.
All the white space at the top, around the logo, pushes the first picture down and the bottom of it gets cut off on my screen (1680x1050px). If a visitor with 1080p screen can see the entire picture without having to scroll the page down it would look great. I also noticed "platinum" is spelled incorrectly ("Fine art Platininum/Palladium Prints").

Thanks for looking over my site and I'll check into the spelling and other issue.
