The site looks great, but none of your "sponsor" graphics are working on the
main page, (www.get-involved.com).

I like the heading graphics with the ribbons, but they take some time to load.
You may be able to speed the loading of the pages if you remove the graphics
at the top of the page that are only text.....It will load faster if you don't
use a graphics image for these.  (why did you?  it's just an image of text on
the same background as the rest of your page.  If it was to be able to place
it to either side of your heading banner, try using tables instead.)

Also, I would recommend the use of a spell checker....but it would not catch
all of the mistakes.  In fact, I saw no misspelled words...but there are
typos.  For example..."We are sorry for any inconvenience that this may call,
however, in the end you will all be much happier with the product we provide
to you."  I think "call" should be "cause".  (And, aren't you assuming that
we'll be happier with the new product?  Maybe, "...in the end, we hope you
will be ...")

Overall, the site looks great, and the content appears quite worthwhile....I
bookmarked it for a later visit, when I have more time to actually read it
all.
