I wanted to use this opportunity to introduce
myself to all fellow artists who visit this
Forum frequently .

I am spending most of my time drawing black
and white and only recently started to work
myself into coloring those drawings (1 year ago) .

You can of course visit my homepage for
a detailed presentation of what I do . http://home.t-online.de/home/0866212939-0001/

Fare you well , until then ;?

why do you speak in the 2nd person in your site?

"the artist on this site is..."
"he did this...."
"most of his..."

Ya, there is a second person, he was talking in third person though. First person is I, second is you and third is He/She/They whatever.

Well ,
the text about the author is supposed to be
a sort of summary of important things . I
think it always sounds very nearly blasphemic
when you only say good things of yourself .
Like someone who thinks he is god . So I decided to use another persons view so that
it doesn't look like I just want to praise
myself .

In the end I decided to say Farewell
personally because it is after all my
web site .

I still hope you enjoyed looking at some of
my creations .

Hi there.

I like the site.

The overall layout is easy to navigate. However, there are a few areas that I think could be improved.

1) Try using a higher compression rate on the menu/background graphics as the download time is quite high.

2) The green text on purple doesn't really work that well. Try using just white text on purple. Also, perhaps a different font such as Arial/Helvetica that the user will be familiar with.

As I say, I think the site is quite nice.
