First off, This should be in the website reviews forum.
2, your layout is everywhere and thats not good,
3, you have vertical and horizontail scrolling which puts people off right away
4, you need to optomize your images, it took me over 1 minute to load it with a 2mb broadband connection,
5, images overlap text and button/links are under text. not good.
6,k why would you advertise that you used such a crap program to make your site(refer to image 1).
Some advise;
1, Design a page set to a max size of 800px in width,
2, learn CSS
3, validate your code
4, optomise your images
and lastly,
5,Delete front page and write the code your self, you will get so much more control over your sites.
Your actual content looks good, im only trying to help not put you off.
look at the images to see how it comes out thanks to frontpage's non-compliance.

thank you for taking the time to look. And i didn't take it as you putting me off. if i didn't want an oppion for the look i wouldn't have ask :)
1. i do have a review form (email) there is a link in the nav bars that says reviews and inside that page is the link to the email for reviews to be sent to me.
2. I have my screen set @ 11?? x ??? I can't deal with scrolling and forgot i had it set a different setting.
3. The overlaping images is just fine tuning because of how frontpage works.
4. i hear from a lot of people that frontpage sucks, but i also hear from some people that frontpage is good as well. I was given the frontpage program and yes i think it takes a couple of extra steps for some things, which i really don't mind.
Questions????
1. what do you mean by optomize my images?
2. why shouldn't i have some text as links?
thanks again for your time
