I really like the custom startpage, looks cool!
thanks
i wanted to use this kind of navigation instead of the default gallery menu in a shrinked version at the top of the page, but i had difficulties with the deep-links, as posted

In the galleries section, I would perhaps remove the frame around the thumbnails, or make it a much lighter gray ... ? Same for the main controls ... They could be a lighter grey to make the design more subtle ... They would still be very visible on your plain white background ...
i'll give it a try.
actually, i would have preferred to have a dark background, but the startpage with the dynamically positioned buttons looks terrible, using black or dark bg. and giving the spots less alpha would kill the effects.
Also, have you increased the vertical margins for the full-size images? The pictures are displayed quite small on my 13" macbook, unless I take it "fullscreen". Seems like there is a lot of extra space ...

i've also recognised this. the increased margins have been neccessary to avoid a cut-off exif-data on the right. if i reduce margin, the exif-info does not fit and is cut off. perhaps i'v overseen something?
