I like the overall simple design.  I do have three small suggestions, though:
1: The heads look like a banner, not like navigation icons.  It would help
if the text below the heads was there all the time instead of appearing when
you hover over them.  I do think it looks cool, but it requires people to
wave the mouse around just to figure out where the content is.

You know I never thought about that. I guess that could be a problem. Thanks

2: The thumbnails are a little too small to see anything.  Even making them
50% larger would help a lot.

I will try that, but I didn't want huge thumbnails. I guess I just made them
way too small.

3: Kill the unecessary text scrolling by in the status bar.  The status bar
by default displays useful information (ie link addresses when you hover
over a link), and you are essentially disabling it.  If you *need* that text
to show on the page somewhere, just put it on the page where people can
always see it.

I think Kyle said the same thing a few weeks back! I will dump the scroll
bar now that two people think it's annoying. I actually have all my legal
stuff on a page where oyu can access it from anywhere...the very bottom
brick, if you click it, it takes you to the legal crud.

Anyway, you do have a nice site with some cool content.  Keep it up!

Thanks Tony!!!
