+1

Also, font is huge. I’m at 1280x800 and it looks huge. Too much scrolling on the front page (a majority of this will be fixed if you make the font smaller). Using thumbnailed pictures that open full size in a separate ‘pane’ above the page when clicked will also reduce scrolling.

Design it with 800x600 in mind and it will look much better at all screen resolutions. Just don’t hard code sizes, use percents.
