Dear Nathaniel,

I really like the initial impression - it is very attractive, the logo and
colours etc!
Plenty of interesting and relevant information, too.
The banners are annoying though.

One or two comments, viewing on:

The bottom of the 'g' in "Offering Northern Minnesota's Finest Arabian
Horses" falls off the red and down onto the white of the main body of the
page. Could the red background be extended down a bit maybe?

Similarly, the search box on the left-hand side nav bar extends quite a way
onto the main page area. You either need to make the search box narrower or
widen the nav bar or move the search somewhere else.

The text at the top (and in other areas) beginnning: "Producing versatile,
national ..." In my opinion this would look better if it were left-aligned
rather than centred.

Now for a more controversial point! If I were working on this site, I would
change the default blue and purple link colours to something that matched
the rest of your site better. For me, the blue, in particular, is too
strong.

Finally, your hyperlinks from index - main body of page (e.g. "stallions") -
do not seem to work.

All the best,

Jenny
