I'd have to second comments on the blue on black. Dramatic, but hard to read.

The "first impression" was that with my very slow POTS connection, the picture on the front page took a rather long time to load. It's been resized to 150 dpi (unless you've got a pretty good camera - most offload at 72) but it's still a 10x12 inch or so - which may be a little larger than needed. For web viewing only, the 300 KB could be cut to as low as about 25 - 45K without losing much, although if your friends might want to hang you on the wall, the 300KB isn't really too bad. It would print nicely at 10" x 12" and passably at 24" x. Other pics I looked at were more typical, and nicely sized at about 40KB.

I will congratulate you on the fact that the only "typos" or misspellings that showed up were in the popups (they should be ashamed) - on pages I took a quick look at. Good job there, and shows an unusual lot of care.
