Very true.

I remember seeing this earlier back when you were working on it. Still, as much as I hate flash websites, I think this one was done very well/professionally.
 
Looks nice man. Smooth, simple, refined. A bit of a long load time for me initially (54g WiFi on 5Mbps cable), but not terrible. I'd say not to have the photo albums load in a completely new, full sized web page but I can't say I know what to suggest instead of doing that. I like the picture viewing though. :thumbsup:
 
Where is Garden Bello located? What is their region of operation? How do I phone them, snail mail them? If I live in their region and search Google for "garden patio walls region" will the site come up? All I know is that somewhere in the world a company builds stuff I want but I don't have a clue where.

Also, every page should at least link back to the home page or have a close window button. Not all the album pages do.

Also, more info on costs, process of doing business, statement "we are bonded, licensed, etc.", take credit cards, etc. help folks decide whether to pursue the vendor.

Site does look nice, though like others above, I don't care for flash based websites.

The content on the site was the client's call.

Thanks for the comments people🙂

nah. Not my decision.

How does that matter? You're a designer and you should be doing whats best for your client.

A good page title is one of the most important SEO techniques you can do, and you completely ignored it. Search engines can't index the site because its flash, so you're got no viable way for crawlers to get this page on the results.

I like the whole design and everything else though!

Should I go behind their backs?😉

 
crappy pictures. But I guess that's not your fault. How much did they pay you if you don't mind?
well done. bravo
 
Looks slick, loads well. I agree that there should be more info on the company.

I can't see why not. What's the point of a website if no one can find it? Did you know 85% of internet traffic comes from search engines? Find me one (legit) business owner that wants to hide their business from people.

My main selling point is proving to my clients that I can get people to find their sites. It works.

I added all the meta tags and such😛 I'll think about it. Maybe they won't notice😉
 
I did not see any design credits at the bottom of the page like: © 1999-2006 FuseTalk Inc. All rights reserved.


No link to your page either.

Meta tags are worthless these days because of how they've been abused over the years.
