-I don't like centered paragraphs
-The layout looks nice but isn't very cohesive. Is there any way to connect the different elements a little better?
-White links on orange is a little hard to read. I'd suggest at least making them a different color on :hover.
-There has to be a better way to make your nav other than an image map with Javascript function calls on mouseover

but... I disagree with "White links on orange is a little hard to read". This is a very dark orange "FF9933" so a light color compliments it. Trust me iv'e tested other colors that just dont seem to work. About the links, I disabled the hover because any sensible browser will know it's a link when they hover over it because of the hand icon, and I like to be different :rolleyes: . I even put a javascript to accompany it. I agree that the layout is not really solid yet. I have one question though? Why is image maps and javascript a problem? You're not the first person that told me about it. Iv'e always found it to be more efficient to get the exact look of my naviation without depending on default fonts. Thanks again for your opinions! :)

I like the color scheme. Also don't care for centered text. The image at the top seems out of place to me. It doesn't go along with the color scheme.

The image at the top will be changed often. I'm planning to make it random so everytime you come on you'll see a different image. ;) I also changed the text at the top so that it's not centered. I have to find a better way to align the text in the content boxes though.

I like the idea, but like the others have said, the layout needs tweaking :)

Thanks for your input. I'm workin on it ( well i'm thinking how to fix it ) ;)
