 OK.  I surrender.

Where on your site can we find a Shozam Gallery?

I can only find slideshows using Google.

I just purchased Shozam 3 Days ago and am still checking it out. If it works well I will be replacing the photo albums in google.

 Thanks for letting us know where it is. Looking pretty good. I did notice a little odd behavior that I haven't seen before. When in the gallery I clicked on "index". That seemed fine but when I would pick a photo out of one of the albums I would have to scroll back up to actually see the picture. I haven't noticed this happening in other galleries. Normally it would center back on the photo. I don't have a solution to that, but think it  probably has something to do with the gallery being in a frame. Otherwise I think it's looking good. My only suggestion would be to have a darker background behind the photos to help the photos "pop". Only a personal opinion though.

 Now that we know where it is, it looks fine.

You do get a 404 in this link:

It is in the bottom menu bar.

I am not too keen on mixing flash with your top menu.  It tends to get confusing using flash and non-flash like you did.  Also, when I follow some links in the flash menu, I lose the top bar there and need to use my back button because I can't see the flash menu.

In the frames, sometimes I end up with "double frames" which gets even more confusing.  Personally, I very rarely use frames in design and when I do, it is an iframe.  Looking at your source code, you may want to change your frame dimensions from pixels to 100%.

Also, to get the full effect of Shozam, you may want to skip trying to fit a gallery into a frame and just link to the full gallery.  You can bring visitors back using links within Shozam or use HTML tabs if you have the Business version.

   Example Here

There is a link in the bottom menu bar plus HTML under the gallery.

I don't use any programs other then Shozam for Photo Galleries.  Once you learn how it works, it is easy to use and incorporate into stes.
