I like what you are trying to do but I have some small suggestions;

1. The picture with the fire is not very clear. Get something that is a higher quality. Also, they picture is not completely circular on the left side.

2. The picture of the HD, try and make it fade into the background.

3. Delete the 2 Paragraph tags at the end, because you will just make your visitors scroll for nothing.

Very good and keep it up buddy. Looking forward on seeing more websites designed by you :cheers:

needs more tables, needs a .css, and needs meta tags.

Surpasshosting would help a little to, took a while for it to load

Hey thanks for the feedback guys, every little bit helps.

Karam:
On point 1, I agree. Im still looking for a better picture of a burning building that I can mask out. If you have one, feel free to send it my way.

On point 2, I am not sure exactly how you mean to fade the hd pic into the background. I thought the crispness of it kinda make it stand out, which may be what you are suggesting I dont do. Just curious as to how to fade it and why you think so.
On Point 3, glad you saw that. I never really paid attention to it. Its gone.

Elite:
Why on earth do I want more tables? Is it a formatting issue that you see? If so, please tell me what it is, cause I will correct that.
I am already using CSS for it. I just dont use a lot of colors or different effects. I think keeping it simple is the best way to go. If you think otherwise, please, elaborate a bit, I am definitely open to suggestions.
Meta tags Im not worried about yet. This is a direct referral website, but I will get to those mean things one of these days. I do appreciate ya taking the time to look over the site.

Oh, P.S. As of today, we are signed up with surpass, and I am just waiting for the DNS to propogate through, so that will fix that last item you mentioned Elite...
