Not as such. Although we have discussed a WordPress blog to compliment the Flash showcase.

IP Delivery..
Nothing wrong with it as long as the content delivered to the bots is the same as the content delivered to the user.

Although in saying that, there isn't a lot of spiderable content on the site. The about page and contact page are the only pages which could possibly be delivered. Meta descriptions on the homepage will probably cover the requirment for IPdev though.

Maybe you can can take advantage of Flickr for getting the images indexed (if he hasn't done so already of course).

I found the text in the sub-menus on the left is very difficult to read (not enough contrast between it and the background). It's not too bad with the shorter ones where the mouseover changes the color, but in the longer sub-menus (like under Music) it's a strain to see what's there without having to put the mouse over each option.

Also, some navigation between the large version photos might be useful (like 'Previous' and 'Next') - it might make it easier for users than having to return to the thumbnails each time.

Agreed. I've given Rob the ability to change the background image himself and the contrast has become poor since the new background went up. I'll have to fade it down a bit.

Yeah, definitely. That functionality was actually included in the original design that was handed over to me. I just got lazy and didn't do it. *ahem* Will probably add it over the next week or so.
