    I've been doing props/murals for local photographers for sometime now. Never advertised, just through word of mouth.
    After years of nagging from friends and family, I've finally desided to get off my lazy butt and put some of my skills to good use.

    We just launched our website and I was hoping to get some feedback.
    I've tried to do the entire site in charictor, but creative writing is not my strong point. (actually writings probably my nemisis)

    I would love to hear your opinions (good or bad)
    Too corny? confusing? what do ya think?
    I really appreciate the help.
    thx gouls and gals!

    Your website is very interesting, good layout and the props look cool. My only suggestion is that you put a tag line somewhere on the front page that states succinctly what you do. Something like, "prop design for all occasions (or situations)" ... "any prop, any place, any time" ... "designing & building props for any need".

    Thx for taking the time to look.
    great advise!
    I did put a tag line on the home page (re-animate your life one sin at a time), but your correct, theres nothing that says what we do.

    With our first trade show this weekend, where hoping to get a lot of promo shots (creepy nurses in the lab)
    I refer to my girls as the sin girls, or sinlab #13 the experiment that went horribly wrong in a wickedly wonderful way.

    It will be our events section of site (we'll always have the girls with us)
    We're slowly starting to develop each of thier charictors.

    When we set up the link on the home page, for sinlab #13, I'll be sure to add a short discription of what we do.

    Thx you for your insight,I really do appreciate it.

    Very nice website, everything looks great, but I must agree with Ween12amEternal, I wasn't sure what you guys did at first it took me a few minutes to realize it. Still like I said it looks great

    Awesome web site !! Love the tag line, but yes do need to have a clear explanation of what you do ( for those that need it ) A lot may get it, but you need to cover your bases with clarity, better chances of a job calling in.

    Other than that, well thought out & nicely layed out. Simple navigation is good. Nice main "splash page", eye catching, yet not over busy. Merlin's best wishes to your new web site venture

    The first thing that jumps out at me is that most of the photographs are cropped too low (or is it high?). I keep looking at the space below them, wating for the rest of the photo to load.
