And I'm surprised nobody mentionned the current trend about this. Short answer: Have a look at Modernizr and most notably it's Modernizr.load() method. Validating if tere is canvas support in the browser for example. It takes care of loading js libraries that fills gap. We call that a "Polyfill". Also. Have a look on the html5boilerplate comments and it's author Paul Irish work. He did very instructive and accessible tutorials on "what I learned while reading jQuery source" to cite only this one among his boilerplate talks. Your most specific question about loading on conditions is a perogative in the realm of using HTML5 nowadays to do what we call "progressive enhancement". Hope I said some buzzwords that will help you in your search about the new best practices.

I think the site is close to perfect, and her photography skills make the website irrelevant. The html could be filled with 1996-style blink tags and animated under-construction gifs and I'd still want her to come spend a day with my family and take pictures of us with our kids. Course, we're in Pennsylvania so this part: For areas greater than 15 miles of Lakeway, TX, please add $30 for each additional 15 miles means she'd charge us an extra $3,400 "to account for travel time" :-) But seriously, the pictures are so good, and the web so world-wide, my suggestion is to add some language there on that "your investment" page to indicate that she would also nonchalantly travel to Fiji if that was the "somewhere unique that speaks to your family lifestyle". She'd just need to quote her per-diem rate and specify that her expenses (transportation, accommodations, food, and some etceteras) are to be paid by the client ...and way in advance! You never know, right? IMO she's definitely that good. Austin isn't the only place where kids grow up too fast!

As William mentioned: the text on the about us page is an image?!? Someone with some web dev skills (combined with some pre-calculus skills) can surely fire out the widths and margins of each text line's div necessary to pull off that big text - in - a - circle trick without resorting to text as an image! And 2: Never. Ever. Put up a "coming soon" page. Take the blog off the top nav until you actually have some content in it. Or better yet, write some content for it! Okay, not surprised if someone so gifted at photography has terminal writer's block when it comes to writing... in which case... I bet she could hire spinhead to peel off some verbiage from the social marketing area of his cerebral cortex fill that puppy up with juicy bits of blog fodder for the parental/expectant photographic customer! And 3. I felt confuzzled and lost by the "clients" link taking me off to another white site that looked enough like this one that I hardly noticed I'd left, but that lacked the consistent top navigation necessary to find my way back. -dave On 8/12/2012 10:58 PM, David Kaufman wrote: > Hi Ron, > > On 8/3/2012 1:52 PM, Luther, Ron wrote: >> Hi Gang, >> >> Got a good friend looking to drop out the rat race to pursue her own >> career in photography.
