Ariel,
I am deeply impressed by your work; I have some hummers on film bbut I haven't done the work to get close ups.
Great clarity and I can see you grow in your photography. Your web site is impressive but I did have a slight problem with it.
Great work!

Ariel Lepor August 30, 2006

Thanks, Jim! I really appreciate the comments.

Now, what's wrong with my site? You talking about my ifp3 site? My blog? #3247190

Ariel Lepor August 30, 2006

Jim, I just changed from .ifp3 to my own domain, so that might have something to do with it, but I don't notice any errors that normal use would result in.
I'm wondering, do you have flash version 6 or newer? #3247397

Nobu Nagase August 31, 2006

Way to go, Ariel!
Many congrats on your finalist!!! #3249165

Ariel Lepor September 01, 2006

Thank you so much, Nobi!

Now Jim, my site is done with the transition. If you have flash 6 or higher, would you please check it out again (
www.scrattyphotography.com) and tell me if it's okay now? Thanks. #3254643

James E. Coleman level-classic September 01, 2006

Ariel,
I have to run messages here for now...I have flash 9 and when I hit enter site I get a blank green screen which was not the case before.
I have to go to bottom and hit galleries.
Still great work though.
Jim #3255349

Ariel Lepor September 01, 2006

Jim, is there still a problem? Could you clear your cache and try again? Also, could you go to scrattyphotography.com and click enter, and if you just get a green screen wait? Adobe might ask you to allow the site, since there might be a conflict with www.scrattyphotography.com and scrattyphotography.com . If they do, could you please give me the exact question it gives you?
Thank you. #3255627
