Hi Mike,




Nice Work...very pretty site...


Bug-wise...

I did find that trying to go to the 'next' page or the
'previous' page, clicking on 'next' or 'previous' seemed to
repeat-refresh the same page I was on...and, when I click on
the specific smaller images next to the larger one of any
given item I elected to go to the page of, it seems to
hic-cup and retain the same large image, or, sometimes,
would change to one of the smaller images I had not clicked
on...


Of course too, there are many quite nice things represented
in these pages...so it was very fun no matter...

Among which is that Cherry Blossom Rice Bowl that
rang-the-bell for me in a big way...


Yer pal,


Phil

Hello All,
I'd been working on a website for some time as a personal project, which
turned into a quasi business project. I've finally finished (meaning its
framework is final, the updates will still keep me busy) the site, which is
intended to be an online information resource/online store for Japanese
ceramics. Starting locally for now, and will extend my area in the future if
possible.
Anyway, there is a section called Features which has some simple photo
articles I did local sites. One has pictures of a Japanese porcelain factory
and kilns which were in service from 1914 - 1984. It had fallen into
disrepair(sp?) following its closure, and the city spent big bucks to
renovate, and turn it into a city museum/pottery club/class. Very
interesting tour if anyone ever makes it into this area.
So if you have the time on your hands, please visit the site and let me know
what you think. Suggestions for improvement, browser problems, all comments
will be greatly appreciated.
I have more articles (glazes, special tools, vessel types, etc...) as well
as a couple of special online individual exhibitions of local artists
planned over the next year or so, so stay tuned....

Cheers,

Mike
