Greetings, fellow role-player!

Home page:

Nice colour scheme. No sideways scrolling on 640x480. Scales quite nicely
to 1152x768.

Content frame: try setting the bgcolor to something similar to the bg
image. It displays until the bg image loads and having a similar colour
makes it less obvious that the bg image is still loading. Some browsers
will also use the bgcolor to colour around the radio buttons. Try using a
different font than Times - it's not very easy to read. You should perhaps
reduce the amount of text on the home page to an introduction, and move
the bulk of it to another page. The text links are arranged rather
strangely.

Nav frame: I think you have too many links: it's probably quite feasible
to reduce the number of top-level sections, but I can't make suggestions,
since I can't read them :) I think 8 is a reasonable number.

Diablo page (and other pages): again, strange arrangement of text links.

I'm sure the site is very informative (can't be sure though), and it looks
attractive. But all the pages look very much the same  - a few pics would
go a long way.
