Snow,
The first page design is excellent, however, since
it's a government  job can you get away with having it
work only with IE5.x?  

http://www.cast.uark.edu/cast/geostor/about_geostor/first_user/index.htm/
must have IE 5.x.

What about Netscape, WebTV, AOL etc.? 

On other pages, the left menu doesn't fix. It needs to
be juiced up a little and to tell you the truth I'm
not sure what you can do, but it doesn't fit the
original page design.  After the first page I was
expecting something really cool and well, it fell
flat.  Maybe putting the round image as a page
background would help.  You'd have to reduce the
opacity even more of course.  The content and menus
are functional, but the design still needs some work.

I also didn't like the tiling of the background image.
