New website...what do you think?
Thanks to amymaew who directed me to Eden Design Studio! There are free website templates and I think my website looks way better! It's not completely finished, but for the most part, it's ready!
www.shalombabies.com
Let me know if my belly casting pics are okay...they're the only ones I have right now. I can't wait to get better ones!

I checked out your site. I like the simplicity of color. It's not too overwhelming. I found the way that the quotes are done at the bottom of the pages kind've incomplete. You have the lead in highlighted w/the grey background, then a gap between it and the remainder of the quote:
"Birth is not only about making babies,
birth is about making mothers ~ strong, competent, capable mothers who trust themselves and know their inner strength." -Barbara Katz Rothman "
That seems odd to me, it didn't flow very well. JMHO.
I love all of the quotes that you use. Very beautiful and edifying to mothers. Very nice.
Over all I really like it.
One thing that I might change would be your term "gas" as in fee+ 'gas'. I'd change that to travel expense or something more business sounding. Again, JMHO, it sounded like a teenager asking their parents for gas money!
Best wishes.

bearth, thank you so much! was it just that particular quote that didn't flow well? or all of them? I can put more text up in the grey area on that particular one to help it flow better. do you think that'll help?
Also, I changed the babywearing pic. Dh didn't want his pic on there so I put mine up instead!
I changed one of the bellycasting pics too, dh didn't like it. So I put the only other one that I had...me holding the bellycast.

another question, do you think I should put quotes at the bottom of *ever* page on my site? Or just leave it like it is?

Love the way you fixed the quotes! It's much more easy to follow through now.
Good job.
