I was looking through some blogs and found this, 10 Most Common Web Photography Mistakes by MulltiChannel Merchant.  Below is a summary of their story:

1. Blurry or distorted photos.
2. Strange or dull colors.
3. Slow-loading photos.
4. “Jagged scissor edges” from poor editing.
5. Too dark or too bright.
6. Photos that are too small.
7. A distracting (or just plain ugly) background.
8. A lack of appeal.
9. A lack of quality.
10. Having too few photos.

This is a great list.  I might have added a few more:

• photos that don’t truly represent your company or church
• poorly cropped photos
• strange photos that don’t relate to the page or story
• having too many photos on one page

A question to ponder, “Should we use photos of people from our church or only use stock photos?”  I’ve got a few feelings on that subject.
