Please forgive my unsolicited feedback, but I couldn't help but notice how you use full-scale images both in the gallery thumbnails as well as in the galleries themselves. This makes the pages take a while to load even with a decent internet connection. Maybe you could look into using scaled-down images?

For example, downscale the thumbs to 300x300 and the actual photos to 1024x768, and make the photos clickable for full-res links? No pressure of course.

Appreciate the effort to give a unique name to every photo, btw

Believe it or not, these are scaled down. I could do even smaller scaling for the thumbnails, but I will continue using full size in the galleries because I don't want to require JavaScript or opening new tabs to see the full quality image. I chose 1800px for the max dimensions so that it would still look decent on a 4K monitor. The photos on this site are all under 1MB, and the originals are 15-30MB each.

No worries about criticism btw. Always happy to get suggestions. :)

you should make a page with every image you have but they're all 5p x 5p in size so it just creates a sea of thumbs that we can surf through

Thanks to the LA wildfires, it took 3 weeks for my film to make it to the lab, so these have been a long time coming. I have a nice stash of digital photos I've taken in the meantime that I'll put up in a week or so.

Lovin' these! The middle ground between "I take artistic pforessional photos" and "Grug See Thing, Grug Point Camera, Grug Press Button" is just my cup of tea. Though that's just the way I see it, sorry if you identify your work differently.

I think you hit the nail on the head for what I'm going for. I do put a bit of thought into my composition, but I don't want to overdo it. I try to straddle the line between candid and artistic, and I leave in the imperfections. "Professional" photos look fake to me...

A musing - sometimes I wonder if I should've taken the path of doing Game Boy Colour games; they have such a retro, aesthetic vibe that whilst a bit more standardized across the library, really click with me. Well, I've already saddled myself with one abyss, let's not get things out of hand.

Likely another week without a review - I'm working at a convention this weekend and I'd rather not rush at my next review!

Woah, I hadn't thought about these GBA Crash games for ages, but they were fun! I never really played the series on PS1, but on GBA, a "trusted brand name" was so helpful among the slop that I'd ended up playing these some.
