From Joey's perspective - yeah. He started the use of the photographs and making them the focus --- that was life expressed; that was art. My part (the website) was just sticking to the same theme. I was "expressing", but only on account continuing a design theme already in existence. It wasn't intentional. I think any communication to the user through the site was on account of his design, not mine. So props to Joey on that one; not me :) That's not to say, however, that there isn't a place in the world for the work that I did. There certainly is. But that is the job of a web-developer --- not a web-designer. Not from me. From Joey’s perspective - yeah.
