I would use a different colour for the search and feature boxes.

I would also align the input boxes in the member login form a bit better, but now I'm being picky :D

I'm by no means good at any of this stuff, but here's some simple stuff I found with your site:

1. Convert your site to XHTML. You have several tags within your source that are uppercase or a combination between uppercase and lowercase. All HTML tags should be lowercase. Make sure you also have "s around your attribute values. Instead of <body bgcolor=#000000> use <body bgcolor="#000000">, etc.

2. ...

Ok, I can't think of anything else besides this because I'm stupid like I mentioned up above.

Overall I think it's a decent looking site.
Someone mentioned to me getting rid of the tables and letting CSS run everything...but I have no clue what they were talking about...so I'll just mention it and say "go research it" on your own damn time :P.

Anyway, good job and I'll stfu now.

OK

Well heres what I'd do:

Convert to xhtml like tgrk35 said, this validator will help:

http://validator.w3.org/

I would keep all your javascript in the scripts.js that you have at the top of the page.

You can use CSS to style your site, this keeps the style seperate from the code, and avoids the flaws you get with tables, this website is a good startpoint http://www.csszengarden.com/

The site looks amazing.

As someone already said, align the textboxes for login.

Overall appearance is ok. The main thing you need to work on is cleaning up your code. Make sure you include a doctype, and you might want to check www.w3schools.com for more HTML and CSS instructions.

Nice job! It looks fantastic, really nice quality images - takes a little time to d/l but I suspect that your visitors will be more impressed by how sharp the site looks than by it d/ling a few seconds faster.

My only comment beyond that - define the size of the thumbs on your gallery selection page.
