I dont know your level of knowledge, so I will give you a few comments; this of course is just my opinion. I wouldnt worry too much about the technical side of your images as that will change as you learn one or two are a little underexposed but that may either be the intention, or something you can work on. The composition and quality is very good. The navigation is a little confusing (not helped by the fact I dont understand the language) but having defined top or side navigation bar will help. The home page is far too big, scrolls forever (I am using a 1600 x 1200 screen, so on a smaller screen it will be even longer) and has 31 images to download which will take 1-1,5 minuets on a 56k dial up. There is allot of white space on the pages below the right frame. The DTD does not validate and may cause issues with different browsers although I didnt see any. In a nut shell a DTD tells the browser how the code should be interpreted. There are no alt values for the images, these display a mouse over description of the image and advanced search engines such as Google use them for searching. A transitional rather than a strict DTD may be better suited to your needs. It would be advisable to have a Meta description tag, as this is what is displayed in search results, without which the engine will just grab some text from the page, which may or may not be relevant to the search term used. The site works well in all major browser latest versions: Netscape IE6 ,Mozilla and Opera , be careful with CSS as some of it can have issues with earlier versions it you think that may be of concern. Where possible combine the CSS in to a single file. I of course dont know if you are tied to any of these things with the blog of whether you are able to change them. Overall it is a very good start, sorry if you feel that I have been over critical, I have been as objective and constructive as I can.

No, please. Thank you for your comments, now I know something to improve in the future. At the moment I've just tried to give the blog (it was made with a blogger account) a nicer face than those that blogger provides. But your comments about the design and some technical features were very useful. If fact, I'll save this page as a favourite. Diego
