Default Fraction Magazine - Have a Look

My good pal Josh and I have been working on a photography website.

It is called Fraction Magazine.

We will be showcasing emerging artists alongside the work of some
very established photographers.

The plan is to release a new "issue" every 2 months and we already have
the next 3 issues planned.

The first issue features the photographic work of:
Lawrence Getubig
Mark Geil
David Bram
Karen Kuehn

And a gallery review by Mary Goodwin.

We will also have a blog for news and website info.
Please let me know what you all think.

Looks like it might be interesting. Bookmarked it for a return. My monitor is set for 1024x768. I might suggest horizontal resize to avoid the need to right/left scroll.

David...I like it, but am wondering about the use of Flash, although it is elegantly done and unobtrusive. Just a few things you may have contemplated already:

Flash sites, as I'm sure you know, are not searchable.

Also, the right hand menu is off-the-screen on smaller monitors. There is no "resizing to monitor" size that automatically happens when using web-standards like XHTML and CSS.

Also, the cursor doesn't change when hovering over links, another web-standard.

Best of luck...I look forward to checking in often. Congratulations!

I just get a message telling me I need flash player plugin, even though I already have it.

Nice site. I will definitely visit it again.

It looks good and works well on Opera.
