Hi Mike:

I feel for you on the "uniformity" guidelines some clients set for us.  It's
frustrating sometimes when you know you have a good design but can't go
through with it 100% due to your client's "guidelines."  It's too bad they
won't allow you to negotiate on the look of some of the graphics.

The biggest drawback I immediately noticed was the amount of time it took to
download the initial page.    The graphics on the navbar need to be
compressed a bit.  It might be possible to get them down to around 2 or 3k
each, which would help enormously.

Secondly, when I clicked on anything from the navbar, the bar disappeared.
I think it would be an improvement to keep the navbar on all pages.

Take care,

Mike
