I think it's great! Honestly. Sure it's fairly simple, but less is more and it looks pretty slick and proffesional, without over-elaborating on needless frills and bells and whistles.

Only thing is...the page seems a bit wide. If possible you should try and make side scrolling un-nessary at 800x600, but even at 1024x768 side scrolling is needed on your page. Apart from that though, thumbs up :)

Ya, i will put the logo in the bar accross the top once i get the colors right. To give credit where's its due, the logo was done by ThePresence. anyone here that follows logo's knows he's the resident expert.

Looks good. One nitpick thing, that's already been mentioned though - figure out a way to shrink up the middle box so you don't have to scroll to see the stuff on the right.

Change....

<title>Home</title>

To the name of the company, etc.

Blue bar across top looks empty, add a small pic of the business, building, or something.

Not a nitpick a good criticism.

if you look at the first page, it does adjust automatically to the size of the screen. the others don't however, and i'm not sure why. now i gotta spend some time with the html.

it originally did, but i made some changes using GUI and voila the unanticipated problems occurred. that's why you should always work in html and not gui. :(

Looks nice and simple. Aside from the horizontal scrolling problem on some of the pages, I think it's an excellent site.

Nice clean site. The only thing I found kind of odd is your choice to center the menu text links rather than having the them left-justified. Maybe it's just me but it seems a little incongruous.

PG - nice site, very clean. Did you get that from TTS or was that something you made from scratch?

BTW, all the pages have scroll bars except for the main page because of:

<!--mstheme--></font><table width="876" border="0" cellspacing="0" cellpadding="6" bgcolor="#F1F1F1">

(That's halfway down your source code on all the pages) You should probably replace it with a percentage of some sort (similar to the main page)

Looks good to me.

I don't think you really want 'flashy' with your target audience.
It's not dull, just professional looking.
