not bad.

the images are great. i wouldnt change them. load times are good for geocities. you might be able to compress them a tad more, but i dont think its nessesary.

i think you should fix all the broken links. also, i think i saw an iframe on one of your pages... the fact that it isnt displaying correctly in mozilla bugs me. either get that working properly or even better, get rid of it all together (i hate iframes).

Personally speaking, I'm not a fan of the way you added content all squashed up in the middle. It just doesn't look right to me.

I wholeheartedly agree with dynasty here. The font is hard to read, and you need a LOT more whitespace.

Also, since there's practically nothing (except a menu bar) on the main page, I would find a way to integrate your splash page at the beginning into your index page.

And I just noticed, upon further browsing, that your News page has an odd background. The inclusion of white in the background graphic may make some white text hard to read. Consider a light shade of grey.

Also, the different pages of your site use different designs! That is, the main news page has a set 800px width, while the news articles are each freeform. Decide! I think the 800px set width looks better and is marginally cleaner.

Heh, sorry about being so hard on you. Consider it "constructive criticism".

To increase the load time on your images, you may consider adding a "preload images" DHTML script. You can find one at http://www.dynamicdrive.com
