Hi, we are working on updating our company's website. The test site is here:
www.truthseekerhaven.com/ibbs/ (http://www.truthseekerhaven.com/ibbs/)
The old site is here: www.ibbsonline.com (http://www.ibbsonline.com) . Our main concerns are on the site look and feel. Any critques are welcome. Thanks,

Considering that most of your visitors will be dialup users who are looking to use your broadband service, I think 21.13 kB is a bit to much. I'm sure you could cut it down by droping the tables for layout (http://hotdesign.com/seybold) and put your navigation into some simple nested lists.

I would estimate about 6 seconds for a 56kb user to download the page, factoring in the fact that it won't actually run at 56kb. This should be fine. I would, however, recommend removing some of the whitespace from the top.

This should be fine.Well yeh, but when what your selling is speed, you want your page to load as quickly as possible right?

Or slowly, so they think they need a faster connection. :D
