Very nice.
May I make a little suggestion?

"All images on this site are © Eleanor Yap. Do not use without her permission."

What about..

"Please don't use them without asking for permission first."

I'm not trying to give you a lesson in manners. I understand why you write it the way you do. But as someone who is a web and image junkie, it seems to me that the more forceful the sign, the less people are likely to cooperate. They might see your sign and go: "F You"

You can't actually stop people taking images. The only way to prevent that is by not posting them online in the first place.

Even on the web, a little bit of friendliness goes a long way.

Knowotimean?

Thanks Peacay. :)

Yeah I know what you mean, I'll be putting a please in front of the 'do not'.

Thank you for pointing it out because to be honest I wasn't even thinking about that when I put it there. I happened to see it on another website and quickly copy-pasted it in there cause I forgot to put a copyright message somewhere on my site.

I think these modern times on the web let people move away from anachronistic legal phraseology. A lot of people write the same sort of thing in just plain or humorous language which is good to see. It's also a netiquette thing - the more people that do things in a reasonable way (I'm not trying to imply you did anything unreasonable - I suspected it was a bit more automatic than considered) then the better off we all are and of course it just makes the web a little nicer!

it looks beautiful!! .. and there seems to be a lot of work on there that i haven't seen before, so that was nice to find :)
i particularly like the sketch boxes!
and i meant to say the other day that i loved the patterns you made for the dhini collection..
i just wish the photos of the dresses on her site were bigger so i could see them better... they look so good!

Thanks donna! Many people have been saying this (about the pics of the dress being too small). I'll see if I can post a bigger version of the shots. :)
