Nice graphics, but it's taking way too long to load...and that's with dsl. I would use the PixResizer to reduce some of the pics and move on from there.

Other than that, the layout looks good. Great job.

Ditto with above. Your site is well over 2500kb & should be looking to get pages at less than 250kb.

Hi, you might have a powerful pc. But have your visitors & are they all on supper fast broadband. Try bring up your index page in BV & hit tools>Page weight. This will list the offending images.
Remember also, these images on your site are already in your machines cache & haven't got to be downloaded, so will give a false impression of a fast loading web page.
