1st of 3 website critiques

The 1st website that I choose was obviously my brothers (David Hahn, http://www.graphicwolfart.com/), and as far as the color scheme of the site. I find it very pleasing with the way the overall image merges with the background. Obviously, this site was designed with “no” CSS and only HTML. But with such a great design, anyone still using land-lines or just a bad connection will have problems loading the page because of the size of this image (which is the entire page). And most likely lose interest in waiting for the page to load fully.

Although, I find the site visually pleasing, I would have to say that the navigation needs some work (at least in my own opinion). In the current websites being posted now, you will most likely find a secondary navigation bar for the users somewhere on the page. This site only contains a link back to the “Home” page. And most users would find that very annoying after time. But as an overall portfolio website I like that fact that it includes the artists work that has already been done for previous clients. So that future employers have an idea of what they are getting for their money.
