Hi Ryan,

Let me say first that I'm a student, not a professional, at Web design; also
that I just gave the site a quick glance...

What I noticed right away is that the animated gif images are anti-aliased
to a light (white?) background, which gives them ragged edges on the dark
cell background you're using.

(I see you've addressed that now in your new message.)

The other thing I noticed was that the remote image swap in the right nav
bar--the one that produces the changing photo image in the middle--I find
rather distracting along with the other image swap going on there, and also
on top of the gif animation.  Possibly if it were just moved out of the nav
bar, it would be less distracting.  Basically, the main page is a little too
busy for me.

One other thing is the lack of a doctype  declaration for validation.

Other than that, it looks like a lot of content that's pretty
well-organized, so good job overall.

Stephanie

professional people thing of my work. I know that there are some glitches in
it but please let me know everything that you see.
