Hi all
Having finally had enough of the hassle of coding and updating my website in Dreamweaver, I've moved over to Photium - and so far I'm very glad I did. The support (by email) has been excellent, and the templates have a degree of flexibility to give the site your own little touches. It's taken a couple of days to get it populated and designed to something I'm happy with, but the updating from here on is going to save me so much time and frustration.
Here it is - please let me know what you think. You can even fill in the guestbook if you fancy!

Like it, minor grumble is it annoyed me that when I left-clicked on an image I got a message telling me that right-clicking on the site has been disabled. Also didn't work properly on my tablet, wonder if this is why
Thanks all.

Joshwa - I agree, it needs a photo. Will have to get to work taking one that my vanity will let me publish!
Carrera_c - thanks. It's about as much as my limited design abilities could come up with!
Chris_L - thanks for that, I'll pass it on to the support guys at Photium and see what they say. Re: the clicking thing, I'll change the wording so it doesn't say right-clicking - I hadn't realised it brought the message up when you left-click too!

In regards to the Right click script running, I would just ditch it all together. Anyone can get around it by disabling JavaScript in the browser (that only takes two seconds in most browsers), its a horrid thing to do to your users as a lot of people right click on links to open them in new tabs, bookmark pages (which you want your users to do!!!) view the source to see how you have done a particular thing...etc etc etc

You don't even have to disable JS. In FF Tools..PageInfo..media tab and they are all there as per other browsers. RClick disabling is a turn off and could cause accessibility issues for some users. Better to watermark the images.
