not bad for a first timer. however, you may want to go with a cleaner look. alot of whitespace. since you are using paypal, you may want to make your site look like paypay, the white and blue.

Thanks for the input! But what does "whitespace" mean. (like I said "still learning here :o . In process of learning Dreamweaver 8, I think I can do a lot better with a program where I can control things a little better.

I like the Sunrise picture very much, but I wonder, that since you are pushing silver, that maybe a different color might be more appropriate ???? Still very nice.
Secondly, your page is just a little too wide for a 15" monitor. People don't like to scroll horizontally. Mainly, in this wide of page, you allow the wording to go completely across the page, making the reading line way too long.
Shorten up the length of each text line and it will be much easier to read.
I may be color blind or someting, but the blue background and the outlines of the links on the left side don't go good together.
Please understand that I'm not running your site down in any manner. Just a little work on the text and colors and you will have a Very Nice Site. Nice job for 1st one.

Beautiful picture. I think you could change the color using that picture. I'm not up on much artwork, but check it out. You could use the same picture but in tones of Silver.
Talking about beautiful pictures, go to my site below and click on Christianity. This picture I took with my cell phone camera
Good Luck

I've made some changes and would like some new input on the changes. Also, can anyone look at the source code and tell me if the meta tags are ok. Thanks everyone :)
